Product Life Cycle

Explanation:

Product Life Cycle is the phases based process, by which a product goes through. It has 5 stages :

Wiring Corp based in Ohio created a new high tech product, having demand only in US not existent elsewhere : depicts 'Introduction' stage. The stage is characterised by - only few innovators selling the new product, small or no market of the new product, very less foreign demand (exports), high product development costs, loss incurred. So, the corp. decision of not locating manufacturing facility elsewhere & satisfying by less exports - also evidences presence of Introduction stage. As in the later stage only : product is sold by early adapters, other big sellers, small majority sellers.
