If a country's child population is declining but in-migration of young adults is rapid, what combined effect may occur on the working-age share?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The working-age share may increase

A fall in the child population tends to reduce the proportion of dependents, while rapid in-migration of young adults adds people directly to the working-age group. If the migration is large enough, the working-age share can therefore rise, even though the exact outcome also depends on the size and age composition of the existing population. This is why the wording “may increase” is appropriate. Option B is too absolute, because demographic results depend on scale and timing. Option C contradicts the decline in children, and option D is unsupported. Thus, option A is correct.
