Open the resource: Australian Bureau of Statistics. (2014). Table 1.9 Deaths summary, Australia 2002-2012. In Deaths, Australia, 2012 (No. 3302.02). Retrieved from://.abs.gov./AUSSTATS/abs@.//3302.02012?
Using the table above and the ABS data from Table 1.9 describing deaths per age group, calculate:
The crude death rate in Australia for 2012
The age-specific death rate for Australians aged 0-4 years
The age-specific death rate for Australians aged >85 years

Explanation / Answer
a. The crude death rate of australia in 2012 would be-
no of deaths in 2012 / total population x 1000
therefore it would be - 405458 / 22,728,254 x 1000 = 17.84
b. age specific death rate for 0-4 years would be given by-
no. of deaths in the age group / no of people in the age group x 1000
no. of deaths during 2011 - 2013 is 59533
total population in 0-4 year age group = 4465106 x 1000
59533 / 4465106 x 1000 = 13.33
c. again using the same formula for age group >85 years, we get :
35959/ 1263440 x 1000
= 28.4
