Fictional sizing exercise · jobs per year

Estimate jobs per year and explain the boundary, assumptions and range.

Start with 40 serviceable neighbourhoods and 900 households per neighbourhood. Estimate jobs per 100 households before revealing the model.

Reveal the worked estimate

Multiply the two base factors by the rate divided by 100. All figures below are simulated teaching assumptions.

  1. Low · 40 × 900 × 6 ÷ 100 ≈ 2,160 jobs per year
  2. Base · 40 × 900 × 9 ÷ 100 ≈ 3,240 jobs per year
  3. High · 40 × 900 × 14 ÷ 100 ≈ 5,040 jobs per year

Cross-check · Estimate technician supply independently from completed visits per day.
