Deferred interest on HH bonds refers to the interest that accrues on these U.S. savings bonds but is not paid out until the bond is redeemed or reaches maturity. Unlike other savings bonds that earn interest and compound over time, HH bonds provide fixed semiannual interest payments, which are taxable in the year they are received. If a bondholder chooses to defer these payments, the interest will accumulate and be paid at a later date when the bond is cashed in. This feature allows for flexibility in managing interest income for tax purposes.
The current interest rates of US Saving Bonds are 0.2 percent for Series EE Bonds. Series I Bonds have interest rate of 1.18 percent. Series HH Bonds have interest rate of 1.5 percent.

The monthly interest rate for fixed rate bonds is the annual interest rate divided by 12.
Cumulative interest on bonds refers to the total interest that accrues on a bond over time, including any unpaid interest from previous periods. This is particularly relevant for bonds that may have deferred interest payments or for zero-coupon bonds, where interest accumulates until maturity. Investors receive the total amount of accrued interest when the bond matures or is redeemed. Understanding cumulative interest is essential for evaluating the total return on bond investments.
When interest rates fall, the value of existing bonds increases. This is because the fixed interest rate on the bond becomes more attractive compared to new bonds issued at lower rates.
No, but it will stop earning interest.
It could be interest paid on US Series HH savings bonds. It's paid twice a year by direct deposit. Series HH bonds value is always the face value, any interest earned is paid twice a year.

When a person redeems/cashes in any savingsbond, they have to pay taxes on the interest they earned on that bond. Instead of cashing in those savingsbonds and having to report all of that interest made and paying taxes on it, people used to be able to buy HH bonds with their other bonds. Because they only converted one bond to another, they did not have to pay the tax on the interest they earned. 'Deferred Interest' is the amount of interest earned on the bonds that were used to purchase your HH bonds, and it is also the amount that you would have to pay taxes on upon redeeming/cashing in your HH bonds. I had difficulty understanding this term as well, until I went to my bank and had it explained to me in plain language. PS. HH bonds are pretty neat. I just received a few that haven't matured yet and am getting them reissued in my name so that I can receive the interest payments as opposed to redeeming them right away for face value and missing out on the interest they could earn. It's not a lot of money, but at least it'll end up paying for the taxes I'd owe on the 778.00 in deferred interest. (That's a lot of tax!) I hope this makes sense!

To determine the genotypes of the parents in the pedigree, we need to analyze the possible combinations. The combinations of HH and Hh would produce offspring with either HH or Hh genotypes. The combination of HH and hh would produce offspring only with Hh genotypes. The combination of hh and hh would produce only hh offspring, while Hh and Hh would yield a mix of HH, Hh, and hh. Therefore, the possible genotypes of the parents could be HH and Hh, or Hh and Hh, depending on the offspring observed in the pedigree.
