GC: Losses per Accessions Rate -- (2006-2010)Losses per Accessions Rate = (Dropped + Missing) / (Baptisms + Professions of Faith + 1) * 100(Losses compared to previous year's membership)
Analysis: Lower values indicate fewer members were lost compared to those that were gained.
Example: a value of 40 indicates for every 100 accessions, there were 40 losses, or 40% of ac-cessions were neutralized by losses.

GC: Deaths per Thousand -- (2006-2010)RegionalDeathsPerThousand = (Regional Population Deaths * 1000) / Regional PopulationMemberDeathsPerThousand = (Adventist Deaths * 1000) / Adventist Population
Analysis: Comparison of Adventist mortality rates vs. general population for the given admin-istrative unit.
-- An Adventist mortality rate higher than the general population's can indicate aged mem-bership.
-- A much lower Adventist mortality rate can indicate poor recordkeeping and/or inflated membership.
RegionalDeathsPerThousand values calculated from Population Reference Bureau data.

GC: Member Deaths per Regional Deaths Rate -- (2006-2010)
Deaths Rate = Member Deaths per Thousand / Regional Deaths per Thousand * 100
Analysis: Comparison of Adventist mortality rates vs. general population for the given region. Ide-ally, this ratio would be close to the regional baseline.
Example: A value of 50 indicates that the Adventist death rate is 50% of the normal death rate for the region.
