Note Calculates estimated personal income from income source referred to on current record received in month of September 2007. in many cases the variable is simply the amount received converted to a monthly rate. For details of exceptions, see Appendix to Vol. A. Contains imputed data. As this is a variable directly associated with a question, the imputation flag (here RFIMnnL) takes the missing value code of the original variable (e.g. Don’t know, refuse, etc.) if imputed, and 0 if not imputed, or -8 if the variable was inapplicable. See notes on imputation in Vol. A.
