If the share of people aged 20 to 34 increases because of rapid in-migration, what immediate effect may occur on the elderly dependency ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It may decline

The elderly dependency ratio compares the elderly population with the working-age population. People aged 20 to 34 are generally in the working-age group. Their in-migration can increase the working-age population, the denominator of the ratio, while the number of elderly residents may change little immediately. As a result, the ratio may decline. Therefore, option B is correct; it describes a possible effect, not a guaranteed one.
