If births and deaths are equal but in-migration is more than out-migration, what will total change be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Total increase

Direct answer: Option A is correct. When births and deaths are equal, natural increase is zero because the number added by births exactly matches the number removed by deaths. The total population can still change through migration. If in-migration is greater than out-migration, net migration is positive: more people enter than leave. Adding zero natural increase to positive net migration gives a total increase. Option B is wrong because the migration balance is positive, not negative. Option C is wrong because equal births and deaths do not produce natural decrease; they produce zero natural increase. Option D is wrong because the statement clearly describes movement in both directions. A simple example is 1,000 births, 1,000 deaths and a net migration gain of 300, giving a total increase of 300. Memory cue: equal births and deaths cancel; more arrivals than departures still raise the total population.
