By endogenizing unit value and coupon redemption, we estimate U.S. household cheese purchase, quality choice, and coupon redemption equations simultaneously. Zero purchases and missing values are taken into account in the model to correct for the selectivity bias. The correlations among the...

This article develops a dynamic econometric model of the national dairy industry to simulate the Impacts of generic advertising on the demand for milk and dairy products, farm and consumer prices, and producer welfare Two advertising scenarios are analyzed (1) a historic scenario, and (2) a...

This article examines the preferences revealed by three non-hypothetical experiments. We found that WTP estimates from the choice experiment are the highest, followed by that of contingent valuation methods, and then experimental auctions. Our results also suggest that the discrepancies among...

This article examines consumers’ preference for three types of orange juice in China. Two non-hypothetical experiments, Real Choice Experiments and Experimental Auctions were used in the study. We found that WTP estimates from real choice experiment are significantly higher than auction bids,...

The dominant pattern in U.S. non-alcoholic drink: consumption over the past 25 years has been a steady increase in per capita soft-drink: consumption, largely at the expense of coffee (and to a lesser extent) milk consumption. Our findings suggest that the major factor governing this pattern is...

A two-step sample selection model is used to estimate household demand equations for fluid milk and cheese products incorporating national generic advertising. This approach allows us to disentangle the incidence of the advertising effect on the probability of purchase and changes in the level...

The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a statistical difference in sales responsiveness to advertising among whole, lowfat, and skim milk consumers. A case study for New York City which used monthly time series demand data from 1986 through 1992 is presented. Separate per...

Consistent two-step censored estimation is applied to household demand equations for disaggregated milk and cheese products. The long-run advertising elasticity for total milk was positive, largely due to low fat milk; however the elasticity for cheese was not significant, and only shredded...
