Population Estimates for Corporate Sector-An Alternative Method

An Alternative Method N Shanta The current practice of making population estimates for the corporate sector based on paid-up capital coverage is questionable. The author suggests an alternative method which seeks to do away with some of the assumptions underlying the current method. Estimates made using the new method stand up better to comparison with other independent estimates than estimates prepared using the current method. Though it may not be the ideal solution, the new method thus seems to be based on firmer grounds than the current method.
