Abstract: | The paper offers an exploratory empirical investigation of the determinants of cooperative advertising participation rates.
Using data for 2,286 brands, we examine the relationship of participation rates to national advertising expenditures by brand.
We also consider how participation rates vary with average manufacturers’ margins by industry, average retail margins by category,
and additional category-level variables. Reflecting the discrete nature of the dependent variable, the analysis employs discrete
choice estimation techniques instead of OLS regression. The results reveal a significant quadratic relationship between advertising
and participation rates. We interpret this and other significant findings in the context of existing work. |
