Estimate the demand for soft drink using a multiple regression program available on your computer. 1) Estimated Demand for soft drink: Multiple Regression: Demand of soft drink: constant + 6-pack price + income per capita + mean temp + error : 514.27 242.97 6pack price + 1.22 income per capita + 2.93 mean.Temp
QUESTION 2
Interpret the coefficient and calculate the price elasticity of soft drink demand.
1) The coefficient for demand for soft drink and price of soft drink is inverse relationship. 2) The quantity demand for soft drink per capita will change in opposite direction as the price of soft drink change. 3) Demand for soft drink will reduce by 242.97 when price of soft drink change in the opposite direction or inverse direction. 4) The coefficient for demand for soft drink and income and demand for soft drink and mean temperature is positively relationship. 5) The quantity demand of soft drink will change in same direction as the income and mean temperature change. So that, demand for soft drink will increase by 1.22 when income per capita increase, and demand for soft drink also will increase by 2.93 when mean temperature increase.

Now omit both price and temperature from the regression equation. Should a marketing plan for soft drink be designed that relocates most canned drink machines into low-income neighbourhoods? Why or why not?
Demand for soft drink: 254.56 5.37income
No.
