I was just speculating what was being talked about by imputed income for yield fares relative to this DGS discussion. I assumed it meant that for the purpose of the fare, for whoever it applied to, they'd take the yield fare amount and calculate that as imputed income for taxes. So while yield fares and imputed income aren't the same thing necessarily (our buddy pass charges are yield fare but not imputed income for example) it is possible to calculate inputed income based off of the yield fare if that's how they chose to do it.
As to wether or not that is how they actually chose to do it, I'm not sure. I was just speculating one way as to how they could if they wanted to based on what was said about the new system so far.
