Reference: Impute Reference information: This does exist in financial English, and the meaning is "To calculate the value of something which cannot easily be measured in the usual way by giving it a value based on similar things." This is why it appears so often in tax-related contexts. I think native English speakers will often feel more comfortable with less recondite expressions, such as "imposed on"... Example sentence(s):
