Demand Estimation Managerial Economics & Globalization – ECO 550 Dr. Lundondo Mumeka July 17, 2014 Introduction This assignment is trying to compute the elasticities for each independent variable in a giving regression equation for the demand of a leading brand of low-calorie microwavable food across 26 superstores for the month of April. The linear equation provided is QD = -5200 – 42P + 20 PX + 5.2I + .20A + .25M which suggests that it is dependent on the following variables:

the knowledge of demand analysis and carry out an investigation on the possible determinants of the demand for the product. The consultant should also describe the methodology of a multiple linear regression and its purpose in estimating a demand function. The consultant should then run a multiple linear regression in linear and multiplicative forms based on the data provided by the company and report on the estimated result. They will have to evaluate the estimated demand equations both in
