    Eduncle Best Answer

     Many a time in under-developed countries and especially in rural areas, corrected birth rate is sought, which is always greater than the crude birth rate. Corrected birth rate takes into account the registered births. The registration regarding birth in the rural area is not done properly by the concerned officials.
    Often children die as soon as they are born. At that time, the registration regarding birth and death is essential, but it remains unnoticed. At times, when the assumed population is added to the crude birth rate, it is called corrected birth rate. Assume that in a population of 50,000 after 700 births, there occur 50 more births, then the corrected birth rate will be in the following way :
    Corrected Birth Rate = × 1000
    It means
    Corrected Birth Rate =  × 1000 = 15
