aving taken 1981 as tho bae year, we rhall conaider fou r different targat years, n ma ly, 198G, 1981, 196, and 20 1 . Assumption regarding C : According to the 1981 population m cen&us, currently mazrried woman constituted 04% of a Ll women in the age-g roup 15-49. This moans C for 1981 w a e lual to 0 .840. a A common assumption foroang t nd3sh is that tho average age at marriage is gradual ly increusing. Tharefore the value of C can m be a ssumed to decreasa by 0.005 aftor every five years, as shown ba low:- Year Assumed vaLua of C ---------------- m ----------------------- 1981 0 840 (given by consus] 1986 0.835 1991 0.830 1996 0 825 2001 0.820 Assumption regarding C a The Population Council's formula a for estimating the index of i naducad abortion is TFR C = TFR ... (4.7] + 0.4 x (1 + overall CPR] x Total induced abortion rato This formula for C needs prior knowledge of overa L L CPR, but tne a formula for CPR also needs prior knowledge of C . To bypass tha a circularity problem, thu overall CPR can be C (t) approximately calculated by assumi ng that------- = I This iG justified C (0] because chargas in CPR in Banglada h are Linked primarily with changes in TFR, and C a has no major role.

Total induced abortion rate can be assumed to be 0.2 fo each of the four target year . This implies the following:- Year TFR target Assumed value of C 8 1986 5.6 0.9810 1991 4.8 0.9772 1996 4.2 0.9725 2001 3.6 0.9664 Assumption regarding C : The Population CounciL's fnrmuI a for estimating the index of postpartum i,ifecundabi lity is 20 C- ------------------------------------------------------- (4.8) 18.5 + Duration in months of postpartum infecundabi Lity However, there are no reliable end consistent data on breast-feeding in Bangladesh. The following assumptions about C i help in avoiding serious problems of inconsistency:- Year Assumee value of C 1986 0.6237 1991 0.6315 1996 0.6450 2001 0.6559 Step 2 Estimate the o vera LL CPR needed to achieve the TFR target. The relevant formula is

Total induced abortion rate can be assumed to be 0.2 fo<br />

each of the four target year .<br />

This implies the following:-<br />

Year TFR target Assumed value of C 8<br />

1986 5.6 0.9810<br />

1991 4.8 0.9772<br />

1996 4.2 0.9725<br />

2001 3.6 0.9664<br />

Assumption regarding C : The Population CounciL's fnrmuI a<br />

for estimating the index of postpartum i,ifecundabi lity is<br />

20<br />

C- ------------------------------------------------------- (4.8)<br />

18.5 + Duration in months of postpartum infecundabi Lity<br />

However, there are no reliable end consistent data on<br />

breast-feeding in Bangladesh.<br />

The following assumptions about C i help in avoiding serious<br />

problems of inconsistency:-<br />

Year<br />

Assumee value of C<br />

1986 0.6237<br />

1991 0.6315<br />
