Answer 1

I assume by 'middle aged society' you mean folks in the Middle Ages, not people in their 40's.  One fact isn't in doubt.  When so many died, there was a need to replace their labor, and wages and prices rose as a consequence.  Most history books mention this.

Here's a quote from the site listed below:

Consequences. It is impossible to overstate the terrible effects of the Black Death on England. With the population so low, there were not enough workers to work the land. As a result, wages and prices rose. The Ordinances of Labourers (1349) tried to legislate a return to pre-plague wage levels, but the overwhelming shortage of labourers meant that wages continued to rise. Landowners offered extras such as food, drink, and extra benefits to lure labourers. The standard of living for labourers rose accordingly.
