Demand Estimation, Elasticities and Forecasting for Dalda Banaspati : An Empirical Analysis

Bashir, Dr. Furrukh - 2011

The main purpose of our study is to estimate the demand equation, and by using this equation we have to forecast the future demand. Economic theory postulates that the demand for a commodity arises from the consumers' willingness and ability (i.e., from their desire and want for the commodity...

Aggregation and other biases in the calculation of consumer elasticities for models of arbitrary rank

Denton, Frank T.; Mountain, Dean C. - 2011

Consumer-related policy decisions often require analysis of aggregate responses or mean elasticities. However, in practice these mean elasticities are seldom used. Mean elasticities can be approximated using aggregate data, but that introduces aggregation bias for full and compensated price...

Carbon tax scenarios and their effects on the Irish energy sector

Di Cosmo, Valeria; Hyland, Marie - 2011

In this paper we use annual time series data from 1960 to 2008 to estimate the long run price and income elasticities underlying energy demand in Ireland. The Irish economy is divided into five sectors: residential, industrial, commercial, agricultural and transport, and separate energy demand...

Income Distribution, Price Elasticity, and the 'Robinson Effect'

Benassi, Corrado; Chirco, Alessandra - 2011

In The Economics of Imperfect Competition, Joan Robinson argued that an increase of the consumers' incomes should make demand less elastic - which, though reasonable about individual demand as an assumption on preferences, suggests a role for income distribution as far as market demand is...

Anticipation, Tax Avoidance, and the Price Elasticity of Gasoline Demand

Coglianese, John; Davis, Lucas W.; Kilian, Lutz; Stock, … - 2016

Least-squares estimates of the response of gasoline consumption to a change in the gasoline price are biased toward zero, given the endogeneity of gasoline prices. A seemingly natural solution to this problem is to instrument for gasoline prices using gasoline taxes, but this approach tends to...

Hourly price elasticity pattern of electricity demand in the German day-ahead market

Knaut, Andreas; Paulus, Simon - 2016

System security in electricity markets relies crucially on the interaction between demand and supply over time. However, research on electricity markets has been mainly focusing on the supply side arguing that demand is rather inelastic. Assuming perfectly inelastic demand might lead to delusive...
