What is the positive and negative …

IMPACT OF POPULATION CHANGE Positive impact of Population change are: Nations with higher populations are better able to raise money on a national level, and this can lead to more international clout. China, for example, has a relatively low per capita income, but its large population gives it tremendous influence. Increasing population ensures increase in the labor force. Lack of growth in the labor force will make a country static, retarded and gets to equilibrium at less than full employment level of the economy. Investors would like to invest in a country with a large population. As the population continues to grow so will be the growth in demand for food, shelter, clothing etc. Negative impact of Population change As a result of overpopulation, the available resources would not be able to do round and this will result to poverty in the country. Overpopulation leads to unemployment, this is as a result of the number of people looking for job outruns available resources. Low Per capita income if production level does not increase Increase in imports, which will result to balance of payments deficit

When the population growth rate is positive, per capita income growth is positive and increasing in the population growth rate. On the other hand, when the population growth rate is negative, contrary to expectations, per capita income growth remains positive, but is decreasing in the population growth rate.

Positive change in population is increase in growth rate and negative change can be decrease in growth rate
