    Study Notes

    Past Demand

    • Past demand is calculated by adding local production, total consumption, and imported units.
    • The study of demand seeks to identify consumers, gather information on total past demands, evaluate past demand patterns, forecast future demands, and evaluate future demand projections.
    • Duplication of data can occur if local production is entirely sold locally.

    Future Demand

    • Future demand refers to the projected demand for a product, including local consumption, production, and imports.
    • The study of supply aims to determine if existing suppliers for the proposed product or service exist.

    Market Segmentation

    • Market segmentation helps identify target consumers or users by classifying them based on characteristics such as type of consumer, income classification, use of the product or service, location, and age.

    Gathering Demand Data

    • Data on total demand can be obtained from manufacturers, retailers, trade associations, government agencies (NSO, BOC, BSP, DOF, DTI, NEDA), universities, local government units, and potential users of the product.

    Study of Supply

    • The study of supply seeks to identify suppliers, including direct and indirect competitors, and their influence on consumer behavior.
    • It involves gathering information on historical supply, analyzing supply growth patterns, forecasting future supply, and evaluating the projected future supply.

    Demand-Supply Analysis

    • This analysis involves comparing demand and supply to determine if there is a sufficient demand for the proposed product or service.
