Question 1

The population of Ayetoro LCDA at the beginning of the year 2005 was 200,000. The births were 80,000. The deaths were 38,000. In the same year, immigrants were 50,000, while emigrants were 28,000.

Compute the population figure at the end of 2005.

Solution

Population = Birth – Death rate + immigration – Emigration

Population = (80,000 – 38,000) + (50,000 – 28,000)

= 42,000 + 22,000

= 64,000.
