Publication 1212 (01/2019), Guide to Original Issue Discount (OID) Instruments
Original issue discount OID refers to a debt instrument initially issued at a price substantially below its face amount i. OlDs can also be bonds issued as zero coupon bonds. A zero coupon bond also referred to simply as a zero has no stated or coupon interest rate and therefore pays no periodic interest. Non-zero deep discounted bonds are priced well below par at issuance but have regular semiannual or annual interest payments based on their stated interest rate. In the late s and early s, interest rates were at historic highs.
OID is normally created when a debt , usually a bond , is issued at a discount. In effect, selling a bond at a discount converts stated principal into a return on investment, or interest. The accurate determination of principal and interest is necessary in United States tax law to determine the basis of property and to determine whether an amount paid is deductible and includible as interest, or simply a nontaxable debt repayment.
