 An activity of determining qty. of goods to be purchased in Future  Necessity for forecasting Demand  Stock Effects  Market Response effects  Factors affecting Demand forecast

Factors involved in Demand Forecasting 1. How far ahead? a. Long term – eg., petroleum, paper, shipping. Tactical decisions. Within the limits of resources already available. b. Short-term – eg., clothes. Strategic decisions. Extending or reducing the limits of resources. 2. Undertaken at three levels: a. Macro-level b. Industry level eg., trade associations c. Firm level 3. Should the forecast be general or specific (product- wise)? 4. Problems or methods of forecasting for “new” vis-à-vis “well established” products. 5. Classification of products – producer goods, consumer durables, consumer goods, services. 6. Special factors peculiar to the product and the market – risk and uncertainty. (eg., ladies’ dresses)
