Questions on City Growth CoMfW

[andyinkuwait]

I came across a formula in CoM Notes that is applicable for a housing growth calculation which is

Growth = +170*(Terrain Maximal Population + Racial Growth Modifier - 8 )/13 *Max(1.3-0.1*CurrentPopulation,0)*(Nonrebel Nonminimalfarmer population/Current Population)

Q1 So here is my data at the beginning of the game:

Current Pop 5000

Max Pop 14000

Racial Growth 80

Using Current Pop as 5 and Max Pop as 14, the formula does not generate 242 (which is displayed) . I have 3 mandatory farmers, 1 optional farmer and a worker. Am I just being dumb or am I making a mistake with the formula ??

Q2 The above formula implies that if your Current Population is 13 or above there is no growth. Is this correct?

Q3 How is growth calculated if you DON'T select housing?
