| Abstract: | This paper presents a unified model of brand choice and category demand calibrated at the household level. The framework is grounded in utility theory and incorporates two important consumer decisions: 1. which brands to choose and 2. how much product to buy. A probability model describes brand choice and estimates a summary index of category value that is used in the determination of total category demand. The method is illustrated in panel data for a frequently bought supermarket category. |
