<h3>What are the Product Stages?</h3>

The product life cycle is the progression of a product through Five distinct stages—development, introduction, growth, maturity, and decline.

<h3>What are the Maturity Stages?</h3>

The maturity stage occurs after the introduction and growth stages. The maturity stage is the longest stage of the product life cycle. In this stage, sales growth begins to decline; the company reaches the highest point in the demand cycle; and advertising strategies have minimal impact on sales growth.

<h3>What are the characteristics of a product in maturity stage?</h3>

The mature stage's main characteristic is that sales volumes are still growing but at a slower rate. The closer to the end of the mature, the slower will be the growth in sales volume. Competition for market share and customers is also more intense.

Suppose there is an increase in the average education level of the population. You would expect the equilibrium wage to increase
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Both equilibrium wage and equilibrium quantity of labor employed are expected to increase.

Explanation:

Increase in average education level means there are more skilled workers. High-skilled labors often take the production of high-level products/services internationally or create new products/services. The value of output will increase, technical know-how and capital will accumulate.

That creates more work for lowe-skilled labor and incrase their productivity (imagine having better machine to clean the office of a new business of a group of young founders)

Increased productivity and more work to be done will increase both wage and employment.
