What's a good equation for estimating how long would an isolated population of genetically unrelated humans survive?

I have found an equation which states that the live span in generations is 1.5 times the starting population. However it conflicts with the estimation of a population of 160 lasting 4 generations by John Moore, and the estimation of a population of 50 for the same time by Franklin and Soule.
