Abstract:
In this paper some methods will be described which are being used for forecasting markets of consumer durable goods. The models will be explained for both initial and replacement demand separately. As market forecasts are being used together with forecasts of consumer expenditures on categories of products, the paper starts with a description of the link between the macro and micro approach of consumer demand.
