Where:

CBR: Crude birth rate;

B: Total live births in the reference period (total of children were born alive
in the reference period);

Ptb: Population up to the reference time-point.

Total fertility rate (TFR)

Total fertility rate reflects the average number of live births that would be
born per woman during the childbirth period if the woman passes age-specific
fertility rates observed in a given reference period during the reproductive period.

Formula by age group:
49
TFR =  B x
=
x 15 W x
Where:
TFR: Total fertility rate (children per woman);

Bx: Number of live births registered in the year of women aged (x);

x : One-year age interval;

Wx: Number of women aged (x) at the calculation mid-year.

Age specific fertility rates are accumulated from x = 15 to x = 49.
In fact, the total fertility rate is calculated by the abridged method. In case the
age specific fertility rates are calculated for 5-year age groups, index of (i)

represents the 5-years interval of age, such as 15-19, 20-24, ..., 45-49.
Formula by 5-year interval of age:

7
=
TFR 5  B i
i 1 = W i
Where:

TFR: Total fertility rate;

Bi: Number of live births in the reference period of women in the age group (i);
