To calculate the price, take 180 days and multiply by 1.5 to get 270. Then, divide by 360 to get 0.75, and subtract 100 minus 0.75. The answer is 99.25. Because you're buying a $1,000 Treasury bill instead of one for $100, multiply 99.25 by 10 to get the final price of $992.50.

However, savings accounts that pay interest annually typically offer more competitive interest rates because of the effect of compounded interest. In simple terms, rather than being paid out monthly, annual interest can accumulate over the year, potentially leading to higher returns on the sum you've invested.
Reporting the Interest for Taxes
Owners can wait to pay the taxes when they cash in the bond, when the bond matures, or when they relinquish the bond to another owner. Alternatively, they may pay the taxes yearly as interest accrues. 1 Most owners choose to defer the taxes until they redeem the bond.
