We can use the following formula:

[tex]_{\text{ }}Bed_{\text{ }}occupancy_{\text{ }}rate=\frac{\#_{\text{ }}of_{\text{ }}inpatient_{\text{ }}days_{\text{ }}for_{\text{ }}a_{\text{ }}given_{\text{ }}period}{_{\text{ }}avalaible_{\text{ }}beds\times\#_{\text{ }}days_{\text{ }}in_{\text{ }}the_{\text{ }}period}_{}\times100[/tex]

So:

[tex]_{\text{ }}Bed_{\text{ }}occupancy_{\text{ }}rate=\frac{130}{120\cdot365}\times100[/tex]
