Vacancy Rate Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Vacancy Rate.
VR = #V / #OU * 100
- Where VR is the Vacancy Rate (%)
- #V is the total number of vacancies
- #OU is the total number of open units/positions
How to Calculate Vacancy Rate?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Vacancy Rate.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total number of vacancies.
- The total number of vacancies is given as: 50.
- Next, determine the total number of open units/positions.
- The total number of open units/positions is provided as: 300.
- Finally, calculate the Vacancy Rate using the equation above:
VR = #V / #OU * 100
The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.
VR = 50 / 300 * 100 = 16.66 (%)
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables required are provided below:
total number of vacancies = 60
total number of open units/positions = 500
Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator..
VR = #V / #OU * 100 = ?
