ent for different types of coupons, and that there
is a decreasing rate of coupon redemption as
orange juice price increases. The analysis shows
that the redemption level varies with coupon ef-
fort, face value of coupon, age of program, and
orange juice price.
Orange juice price plays an important role in
coupon redemption, and the price effect is most
significant in newspaper coupon redemption and
least important in magazine coupon redemption.
The study failed to establish a relationship be-
tween orange juice price and in-pack or on-pack
coupon redemption. The benefits and costs of
coupon promotional programs to Florida’s
orange juice industry and the advertising effects
of couponing programs on the consumption of
orange juice will be explored as evaluation of
FDOC advertising programs continues.
