      abstract = {An LA/AIDS model is developed to estimate demand  elasticities for packages of 8-oz shredded cheese for  higher- and lower-income consumers. Data used in this study  are scanner data for six supermarket stores in two distinct  socioeconomic areas.  Results show that: (1) lower-income  shoppers are more price-sensitive than higher-income  shoppers for both private labels and national brands; (2)  compared with private labels, consumers are very sensitive  to national brands price changes even in higher-income  areas; (3) cross-price elasticities between private labels  and national brands are all positive, i.e., private labels  and national brands are substitutes in both lower- and  higher-income stores; and (4) the number of promoted items  does not have a statistically significant impact on sales;  instead, the percentage of price discount affects sales for  both private labels and national brands.},
