Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is common practice for automobile firms to offer multiple grades for each of their car models. Consideration of the variant-level heterogeneity is an important element in assessing attribute-based policy interventions, such as tax incentives for next generation cars, because of substantial grade-level differences in attributes within a model. This study presented a discrete choice model of product differentiation at the grade-level, and estimated structural parameters in the model by using the data on different levels of aggregation: model-level sales and grade-level price and attributes. Based on the estimates, this study assessed the policies to promote next generation cars in Japan.
