UCRCD: Function that estimates a UCRCD model

Description

This function allows to estimate diachronic competition between two products, according to the Unbalanced Competition Regime Change Diachronic model, UCRCD, (Guseo and Mortarino, 2014).

Usage

UCRCD(sales1, sales2, c2, display=T, alpha=0.05,
      delta=0.01, gamma=0.01, par="double",
      m1 =BASS.standard(sales1,display = F)$Estimate[1,1],
      m2 =BASS.standard(sales2,display = F)$Estimate[1,1],
      p1c=BASS.standard(sales1,display = F)$Estimate[2,1],
      q1c=BASS.standard(sales1,display = F)$Estimate[3,1],
      p2c=BASS.standard(sales2,display = F)$Estimate[2,1],
      q2c=BASS.standard(sales2,display = F)$Estimate[3,1])

Arguments

sales1

Instantaneous sales of the first product

sales2

Instantaneous sales of the second product

c2

Time at which the second product enters the market

display

T or F, to display the plot of the model or not, the default value is T

alpha

Desired significance level, the default value is 0.05

delta

Preliminary estimates for parameter delta

gamma

Preliminary estimates for parameter gamma

par

Default value is par = ”double”, where delta is different from gamma. If par = "unique", delta is equal to gamma

m1

Preliminary estimates of the first product's market potential under competition

m2

Preliminary estimates of the second product's market potential

p1c

Preliminary estimates of the first product's innovation coefficient under competition

p2c

Preliminary estimates of the second product's innovation coefficient under competition

q1c

Preliminary estimates of the first product's imitation coefficient under competition

q2c

Preliminary estimates of the second product's imitation coefficient under competition
