题目
Which type of bond most likely earns interest on an implied basis?
选项
A.Floater
B.Conventional bond
C.Pure discount bond
答案
C
解析
： C is correct. A zero-coupon, or pure discount, bond pays no interest; instead, it is issued at a discount to par value and redeemed at par. As a result, the interest earned is implied and equal to the difference between the par value and the purchase price. ： C是正确的。零息票或纯折扣债券不付利息；相反，它是以票面价值的折扣发行并按票面价值赎回的。因此，赚取的利息是隐含的，等于票面价值和购买价格之间的差额。
