Can you explain how T-bill interest works?
Treasury bills, or T-bills, are short-term government securities that are sold at a discount to their face value. The difference between the purchase price and the face value is the interest earned by the investor. When the T-bill matures, the investor receives the full face value. The interest rate is determined by the difference between the purchase price and the face value, and is expressed as an annual percentage rate.
What if the treasury bond rate goes up?
Rates on U.S. government securities such as treasury bonds establish the benchmark for interest rates on all other types of loans. For example, if interest rates rise on treasury bonds, interest rates on consumer loans, car loans and mortgages are almost certain to increase as well. An investor owning individual treasury bond securities would see the value of his bond holdings decline as interest rates increase since there is an inverse relationship between interest rates and bond prices. A loss would occur if an investor sold treasury bond holdings after they declined in value due to a rise in interest rates. A loss on treasury bond holdings could be avoided if the investor holds the bonds to maturity since at that time, the full face value of the bond would be paid to the investor.

Where does the interest on a 4 year zero coupon go?
It goes to the investor who buys the bond. A zero coupon bond is a bond in which, the investor need not pay any premium (coupon) above the face value of the bond while purchasing it. Let us say a company issues a $10,000 bond at a discount of 10% with zero coupon, it is enough if the investor pays $9000 to buy the bond. At the time of maturity he would get back $10,000. This 10% discount can be compared to the interest earned on the investment for the investor.
What is the theory behind requiring bond issuers to charge bond discounts to interest expense when the discount is amortized?
When a bond matures the issuer has to pay the investor the full face value of the bond. The bond will also have a stated interest rate. If an investor will only accept a rate of interest which is higher than the stated interest rate, the issuer will likely sell the bond for less than the present value of the face value of the bond. For example, If a $100,000 bond is issued with a $4,000 discount to meet the buyers desired return, the issuer will have to pay the investor the $96,000 ($100,000-$96,000) the issuer received plus the $4,000 discount upon maturity. Since the issuer has to pay out that $4,000, upon maturity, to secure $96,000 the $4,000 discount is recognized by the issuer as interest expense (over the life of the bond).
