Up3Can someone explain the difference between pure discount and zero-coupon bonds, pretty please?
zero coupon bonds are issued at discount, so the discount is actually the interest u earn while u hold the bond till the maturity

The correct answer is Option A.
Bonds that pay no coupon prior to maturity are called zero-coupon bonds or pure discount bonds. These bonds are sold at a discount to their par value and the entire discount is considered interest, which, while earned each year, is all paid at maturity when the bondholder receives the par value.
