ABSTRACT:
A method is provided that includes modeling demand and/or future supply for a good in a differentiated market. In accordance with the method, demand/supply in a differentiated market is modeled by first modeling demand and/or supply for a good in a non-differentiated market based upon a price sensitivity distribution of a unit purchase of the good, as well as a market potential distribution of a number of units of the good in a market associated with the good. Thereafter, the model of demand and/or supply in the non-differentiated market is integrated to thereby model demand and/or supply for a good in a differentiated market. The method can further include modeling cost and/or profitability of the good in a differentiated market. Profitability can be modeled based upon the demand model and the cost model for the differentiated market.
