Abstract
Computer-implemented systems and methods for determining demand of products. A system and method can be configured to determine a price with respect to a first attribute of a first product. This determination is based upon the price data of the products which compete with the first product and whose attributes are alike with respect to the first product's attributes except for a first attribute. The determined single price is used in a mathematical model for determining demand for the first product.
