Morphology
undiscounted = discounted (transparent) = un + discount + ed
The prefix 'un-' straightforwardly negates the participial adjective 'discounted', yielding the expected meaning 'not discounted'.
Etymology
Undiscounted is made from un- 'not' and discount 'to reduce'; in finance discount means making future money smaller so it matches value today, so undiscounted means amounts are kept at their full value and not reduced for time.
