Present Population given Future Population from Geometrical Increase Method Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Last Known Population = Forecasted Population/(1+(Average % Growth Rate/100))^Number of Decades
Po = Pn/(1+(r/100))^n
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Last Known Population - Last Known Population is the population of any area of the previous year or decade.
Forecasted Population - Forecasted Population is the population forested usually after n decade or after n years.
Average % Growth Rate - Average % Growth Rate in the geometric increase method is usually found by the arithmetic mean or geometric mean which is the maximum.
Number of Decades - Number of Decades is the year gap of 10 years. Usually, 10 years is equal to 1 decade.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Forecasted Population: 350000 --> No Conversion Required
Average % Growth Rate: 12.82 --> No Conversion Required
Number of Decades: 2 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Po = Pn/(1+(r/100))^n --> 350000/(1+(12.82/100))^2
Evaluating ... ...
Po = 274976.673335977
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
274976.673335977 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
274976.673335977 274976.7 <-- Last Known Population
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Geometric Increase Method?

In this method, the per-decade percentage increase or percentage growth rate (r) is assumed to be constant, and the increase is compounded over the existing population every decade.
It is also known as the uniform increase method.
