Estimation of residential water demand functions for greater Victoria : an expansion on the theory and testing of the econometric model / prepared by Sergio Gai.: En37-258/1989E-PDF
"This report presents the results of an extension of an earlier project (Gai 1988) to estimate residential water demand functions for the municipalities of Victoria, Esquimalt, Oak Bay and Saanich, collectively referred to as Greater Victoria, in British Columbia. As a result of the findings of the earlier study, this study expanded on the theoretical and econometric specifications of the model. A linear model and a comprehensive model derived from economic theory were tested against the log-log model previously used. Static and dynamic versions of each model were tested. Dynamic models of the flow-adjustment and stock-adjustment type were evaluated. Explanatory variables not considered in the first phase were incorporated in the econometric models"--Abstract, page i.
