Abstract
Abstract Brand equity has been a perennial topic in marketing. Among all types of measures, price premium is widely accepted due to its simple yet efficient characteristics. However, there is some disagreement regarding whether this measure captures enough facets of brand equity and whether price premium is an appropriate measure to reflect the market position of a brand. With current technique developments, more sophisticated brand equity measures have been developed. A natural question arises as to whether more sophisticated measures are better than price premium. Using large-scale national scanner data covering 47 major U.S. markets, we employ the aggregated demand model to estimate a complex brand equity measure and compare it with price premium. Our results suggest that the simple price premium is consistent with the complex measure under certain conditions. We provide managers with suggestions regarding choosing the most appropriate brand equity measures to signify their brands’ values.
期刊介绍：
The Review of Marketing Science (ROMS) is a peer-reviewed electronic-only journal whose mission is twofold: wide and rapid dissemination of the latest research in marketing, and one-stop review of important marketing research across the field, past and present. Unlike most marketing journals, ROMS is able to publish peer-reviewed articles immediately thanks to its electronic format. Electronic publication is designed to ensure speedy publication. It works in a very novel and simple way. An issue of ROMS opens and then closes after a year. All papers accepted during the year are part of the issue, and appear as soon as they are accepted. Combined with the rapid peer review process, this makes for quick dissemination.
