Enter the target length of stay (days) and the monthly daily average number of adoptions into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Adoption Capacity. 

Adoption Capacity Formula

AC = TLS * MDAA

Variables:

  • AC is the Adoption Capacity ()
  • TLS is the target length of stay (days)
  • MDAA is the monthly daily average number of adoptions

To calculate Adoption Capacity, multiply the length of stay by the monthly daily average number of adoptions.

How to Calculate Adoption Capacity?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Adoption Capacity.


  1. First, determine the target length of stay (days). 
  2. Next, determine the monthly daily average number of adoptions. 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = AC = TLS * MDAA.
  4. Finally, calculate the Adoption Capacity.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

target length of stay (days) = 4

monthly daily average number of adoptions = 20
