An estimation of the dollar value of certain economic transactions where market prices do not fully reflect the value of the transaction or where the service is provided without a monetary exchange. In the NIPAs, the largest imputations are for the rental value of owner-occupied housing, where the provision for housing services to the occupant does not involve an exchange between transactors, and for services provided by banks and other financial institutions without an explicit charge.
