An Econometric Study of the Demand for Bottled, Canned and Bulk Beer

Abstract

This paper uses the absolute price version of the differential demand model to examine substitution possibilities for the consumption of beer in different containers in the period 1968-69 to 1983-84. The results indicate that the effect of beer packaging on beer consumption is significant. The same beer in different containers can be treated as quite different products. The conditional substitution between bottled beer and canned beer is the highest among the beers. However, due to a strong "income effect," the unconditional substitution between them is lower than that between bottled beer and bulk beer. Copyright 1988 by The Economic Society of Australia.
