So if people are retiring they will earn pension that will be spent. This increases productivity of the economy.
However since the number of people working is reducing there will be a reduction in real GDP per person. Only few people are producing and output will be allocated to a large population many of whom are not working.

Explanation:
Payback period calculates the amount of time taken to recoup the initial investment made on a project.
The net present value substracts the present value of tax adjusted cash flows from the amount invested in the project.
Using the financial calculator to find the NPV:
Cash flow for year 0 = -500
Cash flow for year 1 = 300
Cash flow for year 2 = 200
Cash flow for year 3 = 150
Interest rate = 6%
NPV = $86.96
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the tax adjusted cash flows from a project to the original amount invested.
Using the financial calculator to find the NPV:
Cash flow for year 0 = -500
Cash flow for year 1 = 300
Cash flow for year 2 = 200
Cash flow for year 3 = 150
Interest rate = 6%
IRR = 16.46%
