This is more a task for -generate- using your formula and noise recipe
-if missing(y)-.

I have a dependent variable that nicely follows the equation
y=-91.78*ln(x) + 
433.73. y is a growth rate, x is time(1,2,3, etc). 

I have several missing growth rate values, and I'd like to either impute
or 
interpolate. I could predict values of y based solely on the equation,
but I'd 
like to use one of the Stata functions to introduce noise around the
predicted 
variables. I can't seem to find a way to incorporate the values of this
equation 
into either ipolate or ice. I use Stata 10.1 (no mi function).
