Default Population growth: How exactly does it work?

OK, so I'm trying to take all the scraps of information piled together on the 'population' wiki page ( http://wiki.spaceempires.net/index.p...ion_%28SEIV%29 ) and turn it into a nice, easy-to read, pretty-to-look-at, fully marked up wiki page. However I want to get the facts right, and something isn't clear:

There is a table on the wiki with happiness on one axis and plantary conditions on the other. It isn't clear, though, how the numbers in that table are applied to the "population growth" figue. For example, if the table yields 13 for my particular combination of happiness/ conditions, and I have a +2 racial population growth modifier, and then a further +1 from taking environmental resistance up to 105%, would my pop growth rate for that planet be

10% base rate +2% modifier + 1% modifier +13% happiness/condition modifier = 26%? Or would it be
something else entirely?

Anyone any wiser than me?
