The results, now available, are: Range of Accepted Competitive Bids 91-Day Treasury Bills Maturing August 26, 1965 P rice 99.020 99.015 99.017 Low 183-Day Treasury Bills Maturing N ovem ber 26, 1965 A p p rox. equiv. annual rate A p p rox. equiv. annual rate P rice 3.877% 3.897% 3.889% 1 97.998 a 97.994 97.995 3.938% 3.946% 3.945% 1 a Excepting one tender of $2,125,000. 1 On a coupon issue of the same length and for the same amount invested, the return on these bills would provide yields of 3.98 percent for the 91-day bills, and 4.08 percent for the 183-day bills. Interest rates on bills are quoted in terms of bank discount, with the return related to the face amount of the bills payable at maturity rather than the amount invested, and their length in actual number of days related to a 360-day year. In contrast, yields on certificates, notes, and bonds are computed in terms of interest on the amount invested, and relate the number of days remaining in an interest payment period to the actual number of days in the period, with semiannual compounding if more than one coupon period is involved. (44 percent of the amount of 91-day bills bid for at the low price was accepted.) (88 percent of the amount of 183-day bills bid for at the low price was accepted.)
