Institute for Mathematical Methods in Economics Economics • (c) SUPPORT RATIO The demographic change implies achange in relative size of self supporting and dependent population. the support ratio: = LF / CON LF …. effective labor force CON …. effective number of consumers influenced by -> consumption needs of people of different ages -> changes in retirement age -> labor force participation rates -> earning power of those who are working Source: Cutler et al. (1999) An Aging Society: Opportunity or Challenge, Brookings Papers on Economic Activity
