PromoLab Ltd.

 is a small marketing

analytics consultancy that works with consumer brands in Aotearoa New Zealand.

One of their clients is 

Frizzle Beverages

, a fast-growing sparkling

water company.

Frizzle ran a month-long  experiment to test whether

advertising had a greater effect on sales during the holiday

season compared to regular weeks. The company tracked weekly advertising

budgets (in $1,000s) and corresponding sales revenue (in $1,000s) over 50

different store-weeks. They flagged each week as either a holiday (1)

or non-holiday (0) period. 

To estimate the impact, PromoLab estimated the following

regression model : 

Sales = β₀ + β₁ × AdBudget + β₂ × Holiday + β₃ ×

(AdBudget × Holiday) + ε

where: Sales = total weekly sales revenue (in

$1,000s); AdBudget  = weekly advertising budget (in

$1,000s); Holiday = dummy variable: 1 if holiday week, 0 otherwise

and AdBudget × Holiday = interaction variables of advertising budget

and holiday dummy

The regression result is presented in the accompany Excel output below.

Suppose Frizzle plans to spend $15,000 on advertising during a holiday week. What is the predicted sales revenue?
