    At the start of the year a co. employed 2,000 employees. During the year 400 employees left the co..At the end of the year there were 2,200 employed. What is the Labour turnover rate?

    Dear sir I know here the answer is

    400/2100×100= 19%

    But
    If the employees at the year end are lower than the employees at the start of the year then

    Will we consider the following formula ?

    Employees replaced / avg no of employees

    Which will be
    1800/2100 x 100 = 85%?

    I don’t know where you are getting 1,800 from in your last line.

    Suppose it was the same question as you have typed, but at the end of the year there were 1,700 employed.

    If none of the leavers had been replaced then there would have been 2,000 – 400 = 1,600 at the end of the year.

    The fact that there are actually 1,700 at the end of the year means that 100 of the leavers had been replaced.

    The average number of employees was (2000 + 1700) / 2 = 1850

    Therefore the labour turnover rate is 100/1850 x 100.

    But sir why did they take
    400/2100

    400 is the no of employees left

    Instead of 400 they should have taken
    The no of employees replaced which is

    2200-1600 = 600 employees ( replaced)

    They cannot replace more than the number of employees who left.

    400 left and so that is the most that can be replaced. The other 200 are not replacing anyone, they are new employees.
