Alternate travel shouldn't effect your imputed one way or the other... Imputed is all predicated on your base, not your gateway.
If you're based in ANC and your gateway is ATL... You can go from HNL to ANC, ATL to ANC, or anywhere else to ANC you're liable for imputed. Now if you went ATL to Somewhere other than ANC... No imputed.
Same holds true for going home... If they bought you ticket from your base to anywhere... Imputed.
