Price elasticity of demand for fuel in border area and its determinants
Vyšný, Martin ; Rod, Aleš (advisor) ; Slaný, Martin (referee)
This survey measures the price elasticity of demand for fuel. Using unique data set from a petrol station in north Bohemia, short-run demand was estimated as price inelastic, the long-run demand was estimated as price elastic. Fuel prices, population in the Free State of Saxony and excise tax in the Czech Republic are main determinants of the demand for fuel. The impact of new vehicles in Ústí nad Labem Region was not proved. A potential effect of tank tourism was estimated using a variable for the difference between fuel prices in observed petrol station and in Germany. Rise in the price difference by one euro cent leads to increase in gasoline demanded in the observed petrol station on average by 1,5 %, and by 2 % in diesel demanded.
