Because the rate of return it is still a function of market influences. Whether a bond is premium or discount is merely a reference of the coupon rate vs the real market interest rate. If the issuer sets their coupon rate below the market rate, it is said to be discounted. Set the coupon rate above the market interest rate and it is said to be premium.
