Hi Veronica, I have just one hint: Maybe two observations are just not enough to do the imputation.Just think about it, I give a number, e.g. 3.145 percent, for 2003 and a number, e.g 5.0 percent, for 2007 and ask you what are the values for the years in between.
Can you imagine some fancy method two figure it out?I would suspect, under the assumption you don't have any other information, that there is no best solution. Maybe you could just draw a line between the years.
