CAUSE:
"The affordability and accessibility of healthcare solutions have increased over the past decade."
This is the most logical cause. If more people are living past 85, something must have enabled them to survive longer : better access to and affordability of healthcare is a direct and reasonable explanation for increased longevity across a large population.
EFFECT:
"The per capita income may fall today as compared to 2013."
This directly connects to the finding's specific detail that there has been no significant increase in national income. A growing population of people above 85 — who are largely retired and not contributing to the workforce or GDP ; means the same national income is now being divided among more people, causing per capita income to fall.

Regarding the answer for EFFECT, would you kindly explain how can we assume that the population is larger when the question only states that there is growing percentage of elderly? Thanks
