History
In 1914, United States carried a debt of $1 billion
By 1919, end of World War I, the debt rose to $25 billion
Personal Income Tax rose to 73% Bonds and short term debts were not sufficient to pay
this debt
In 1921, personal income tax was reduced from 73% to58%, which reduced revenue and Treasury was forced
to consider other debt management tools In 1929, new security - Zero coupon bondswas
introduced/auctioned. It had less than one-yearmaturity and was issued at a discount of face value.
These were called Treasury Bills or T-Bills because of
their short-term nature.

Example
Treasury bills have a face value of a certain amount,which is what they are actually worth, but are sold forless.
For example, a bill may be worth Rs 100,000, but youwould buy it for Rs 96,000. Every bill has a specifiedmaturity date, which is when you receive money back.The government then pays you the full price of the bill --in this case Rs 100,000 -- and you earn Rs 4000 from yourinvestment.
The amount that you earn is considered interest, or yourpayment for the loan of your money. The differencebetween the value of the bill and the amount you payfor it is called the discount rate, and is set as apercentage. In the example above, the discount rate is
4 percent, because Rs 4000 is 4% of Rs 100,000.
