Alcohol Consumption Allyson Cady Dave Klotz Brandon DeMille Chris Ross
Data • Total alcohol • Beer • Wine • Spirits • Yearly data, from 1935-1999 • Gallons of ethanol consumption, per capita
Alcohol Consumption Prohibition ended in 1935
Why alcohol consumption? • Big industry with big money (approx. $70 billion in 1997, an increase of 17% from 5 years prior) • Health issues • Drunk driving and other alcohol related deaths • We are college students • We recently went through a period of war
War-time Drinking WWII Vietnam Persian Gulf
War-time Dummy • Originally, we were planning to include a dummy variable to capture a wartime/non-wartime trend • Although this kind of variable is useful in explaining the past, it doesn’t help with forecasting • The dummy variable was left out of all models
Data is evolutionary • To get rid of the evolutionary properties, • Take log • First difference • Results in percentage change in each period After doing this, the data becomes much more stationary
Modeling • First attempts used ARMA techniques, but found that MA processes worked better • Similar model found for all data sets

Summary of Models • Total Alcohol: C, MA(1), MA(4), MA(9), MA(12) • Beer: C, MA(1), MA(8), MA(13) • Spirits: C, MA(1), MA(4), MA(9), MA(12) • Wine: C, MA(4), MA(11)
Forecast Results • All forecasts show a similar pattern, with gradual increases expected in the future
Conclusions • Americans are expected to increase their alcohol consumption by 14% over the period from 1999 to 2010 • Wine is expected to see the largest percentage increase • Beer is expected to see the largest absolute increase • Increased consumption could lead to more difficulties with drunk driving, health issues, etc. • Awareness will become increasingly critical in the near future
