Heading: Demand and Supply Estimations Assignment 1: Demand and Supply Estimation Varney Momo Bafalie Dr. Emmanuel Obi Managerial Economics and Globalization April 26, 2014 References Managerial Economics: Applications, Strategies and Tactics, Mcguigan/Moyer/Harris 13th Edition, 2014 Imagine that you work for the maker of a leading brand of low-calorie, frozen microwavable food that estimates the following demand equation for their product using data from 26 supermarkets around
Demand Estimation Dhruvang kansara Eco 550, Assignment 1 Professor: Dr, Guerman Kornilov January 27, 2014 1. Compute the elasticity for each independent variable. Note: Write down all of your calculations. According to our Textbooks and given information, When P = 8000, A = 64, PX = 9000, I = 5000, we can use regression equation, QD = 20000 - 10*8000 + 1500*64 + 5*9000 + 10*5000 = 131,000 Price elasticity = (P/Q)*(dQ/dP) From regression equation,
Imagine that you work for the maker of a leading brand of low-calorie, frozen microwavable food that estimates the following demand equation for its product using data from 26 supermarkets around the country for the month of April. 1. Compute the elasticities for each independent variable. Option 1 Your supervisor has asked you to compute the elasticities for each independent variable. Assume the following values for the independent variables: Q = Quantity demanded of 3-pack
Demand Estimation, Assignment 1 Lavinia Daye Dr. Youngblood ECO 550 January 26, 2015 For assignment one, we were asked to compute the elasticity for each independent variable. The formula for this is: The QD = - 5200 - 42P + 20PX + 5.2I + .20A + .25M Where p = 500 cents = 5 dollars Px = 600 cents = 6 dollars I = 5,500 dollars M = 5,000 A = 10,000 Therefore Qd = {- 5200 – 42 *500 +20*600 + 5.2 *5500 + 0.2 *10,000 + 0.25 * 5,000} Qd = 17,650 units Own Price elasticity
Demand Estimation Name Institution Demand Estimation Computation of Elasticities With the following regression equation, we can compute the elasticities of demand with respect to each independent variable as follows: QD = -3,750 - 100P + 25A + 50PX + 8Y (5,234) (2.29) (525) (1.75) (1.5) R2 = 0.90 n = 26 F = 35.25 Price Elasticity of Demand (PED) Price elasticity of demand is given by the formula PED= ΔQD/ΔP.P/QD. Given a regression
is to undertake the expert judgmental estimation since this particular project estimation method is driven around taking expert opinion and by understanding the strategic project requirements. The results are fast since expert opinion is driven through various elements while accuracy of estimations is not always certain due to project complexity. The experts are pooled from operations, business and management team so as to drive the right level of estimation knowledge for any given project as per
Demand Estimation for Britannia Biscuit Industry 1.Introduction: Our objective was to study the demand variation of Britannia Biscuits in India with respect to certain variables like, Price, Price of the substitute (Parle Biscuits), Income of Consumer and Population. To achieve this we assume all other factors like Tastes of Consumer, Advertising etc are constant. The biscuit industry is taken as a whole without differentiating between various segmented brands. To arrive at the demand function of
Cost estimation challenges can be well addressed through adopting the following set of strategic approach. The key steps undertaken during the given process drives right cost estimation and those actions are as follows: Documenting assumptions and best estimations: the assumptions can be documented in advance and ensuring that best estimations is done using the right technique. There are various methods of effort estimation and cost analysis however the right one should be selected on basis project
Assignment 1: Demand Estimation Brian McGee ECO550 Managerial Economics and Globalization Dr. Rolle Jan. 16, 2015 Compute the elasticities for each independent variable QD = -5200-(42*500)+(20*600)+(5.2*5500)+(0.2*10000)+(0.25*5000) QD = -5200 - 21000 + 12000 + 28600 + 2000 + 1250 QD = 17650 Price elasticity (EP)= EP = -1.19 (1.19) Formula: EP = -42*500/17650 Competitor price elasticity (EPX)= 0.68 Formula: EPX = 20*600/17650 Income elasticity (EI)= 1.62 Formula: EI = 5.2*5500/17650
