Zero coupon bonds issued by the US Treasury are issued at a discount to face value. An investor holding zero coupon bonds is paid the full face value when the zero coupon bond matures. The difference between the purchase price and the maturity value is know as the original issue discount which represents the interest earned on the zero coupon bond. Although a zero coupon bond does not pay annual interest, an investor must pay taxes each year based on the imputed receipt of income. Since the investor is not receiving interest payments during the life of the bond, taxes would be paid on interest income not actually received until bond maturity. Due to the yearly tax liability on imputed interest, it makes sense for most investors to hold zero coupon bonds in a tax deferred retirement account. The interest earned on zero coupon bonds issued by the US Treasury are exempt from state and local taxes.

A bond sinking fund is reported in the section of the balance sheet immediately after the current assets. The bond sinking fund is part of the long-term asset section that usually has the heading "Investments." The bond sinking fund is a long-term (noncurrent) asset even if the fund contains only cash. The reason is the cash in the fund must be used to retire bonds, which are long-term liabilities. In other words, because the money in the bond sinking fund cannot be used to pay current liabilities, it must be reported outside of the working capital section of the balance sheet. (Working capital is current assets minus current liabilities.)
