Imputed social contributions are recorded when employers provide social benefits, e.g. pensions, to their employees or former employees out of their own resources without engaging any insurance company. In this case a social contribution has to be imputed, in practice often as being equal to what is actually paid during the accounting period. This imputed contribution is recorded in a way similar to actual contributions, but the households are recorded as paying back the contribution to the employers. 1, record 2, English, - imputed%20social%20contribution
