If total growth is -0.6 percent and natural increase is +0.4 percent, what is the net migration rate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: -1 percent

Total growth is the sum of natural increase and net migration: total growth = natural increase + net migration. Therefore, net migration can be found by subtracting natural increase from total growth. The signs are important because negative migration represents net out-migration.

Using the given rates, net migration = \(-0.6 - (+0.4) = -1.0\) percent. Thus, net migration is negative 1 percent, meaning more people leave the country than enter it by that amount. Option A is correct. The positive natural increase of 0.4 percent is more than offset by the negative migration balance.
