Demographic Balancing Equation P1=P0+B-D+IM-OM+e P1=P0+NI+NM+e e=error of closure Example from Japan 2003 P2002=127,435,000, P2003=127,619,000 B2002=1,139,000, D2002=1,023,000, NM2002=68,000 What is error of closure? U.S. exampleCrude rates CBR= (B ÷ P) x 1,000 CDR= (D ÷ P) x 1,000 RNI = [(B – D) ÷ P] x 100 = (CBR – CDR) ÷ 10 CROM = (OM ÷ P) x 1,000, CRIM = (IM ÷ P) x 1,000 CMR = (M ÷ P) x 1,000 = (CRIM-CROM) ÷ 10Rates refer to calendar year – “period” ratesRange of measures 1) CBR: 56 (Niger) to 7 (Hong Kong) 2) CDR: 28 (Botswana, Lesotho) to 1 (UAE), 2 (Kuwait) 3) Why so low in UAE, Kuwait? 4) IMR: 172 (Afghanistan) to 2.4 (Iceland) 5) RNI: 3.4 (Niger) –0.7 (Ukraine)Rates and concept of risk 1) Rates vs. Ratios – what is the difference? 2) Rates vs. Probabilities – what is the difference? 3) How to define “at risk” population? (notion of "person-years")4) Use of mid-year population a. Mean of beginning and end population – assume entries and exits distributed evenly across period 5) Limitations of “crude” rates a. Esp. CBR, CIMRExample of more refined rate 1) Infant mortality rate IMR = (deaths to children under one year of age in year t ÷ live births in year t) x 1,000 2) Advantages 3) What is the problem? 4) Is this really a problem?Growth rates 1) Arithmetic growth a.
