If the 20-39 age group is unusually small in a country while the 40-59 group is large, which problem may emerge in the future?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Future pressure on labour replacement and pension support

Age structure shows how many people are present in different age groups. A large 40–59 group will gradually move into retirement and older ages. If the younger adult group aged 20–39 is unusually small, there may not be enough new workers to replace those who retire.

This imbalance can create pressure in two connected areas. Labour markets may face difficulty filling jobs, while pension and social-support systems may have to support more older people with a relatively smaller working-age base. The child population does not necessarily double, and people do not become young again. Therefore, future labour replacement and pension-support pressure is the logical result, making option A correct.
