The line chart provides information about the actual and projected percentage of people who are 65 years old and above during a hundred years' time (1940-2040) in Japan, Sweden and USA. Overall, by 2040, the share of elderly population in society will have risen across the board. However, Japan will follow totally different trend than the other two countries. United States of America and Sweden are alike in that they, with respective initial percentage of 7% and 9%, both witnessed gradual growth until 1982. For the following 20 years, this figure for Sweden exceeded that of USA and the gap between them widens. Estimates indicate that their figure will climb sharply for the remainder of the years, reaching just above 25% For Sweden and 23% for USA. Japanese aged 65 and more accounted for mere 5% of population at the start of the period in question. Its figure, by 2028, despite decreasing until 1960 and leveling off for the next 17 years, will have increased significantly. It is predicted that the number of elderly will surge, overtaking that o Sweden and USA before finally reaching 27% in 2040 - the highest of any country, in any year-.
