Data Description and Models • Data: U.S. Sugar Consumption and Prices:Years 1896-1914 • Dependent Variable: Consumption per Capita (Q, lbs) • Independent Variables: • Real Price (BLS adjusted 1913=100, all commodities) • Year (t, year – 1905) • Models: Linear and Nonlinear (Intrinsically Linear):
Data Note: Sugar is in 1000s of Tons, Pop is in Millions Q = 2*Sugar/Pop
