In which situation can wrong policy be made by reading population growth data?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When base population age structure and local migration are ignored

Direct answer: A. Population data must be interpreted with its background. The base population tells us what the rate is applied to; age structure indicates whether needs are concentrated among children, workers, or older people; and local migration can rapidly change both population size and composition. If these are ignored, a planner may provide the wrong number or type of services. Option A is correct because it lists conditions that can distort interpretation and lead to unsuitable policy. Option B is a good practice, not a source of error, because a clear time period makes comparison possible. Option C is also good practice because rate and absolute increase answer different questions. Option D is good practice because service capacity helps assess actual pressure. Memory cue: before making policy, ask about base, age, movement, time, and available services.
