WHAT IS LATENT DEMAND AND THE P.I.E.?

The concept of latent demand is rather subtle. The term latent typically refers to something that is dormant not observable or not yet realized. Demand is the notion of an economic quantity that a target population or market requires under different assumptions of price quality and distribution among other factors. Latent demand therefore is commonly defined by economists as the industry earnings of a market when that market becomes accessible and attractive to serve by competing firms. It is a measure therefore of potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) or total revenues (not profit) if a market is served in an efficient manner. It is typically expressed as the total revenues potentially extracted by firms. The “market” is defined at a given level in the value chain. There can be latent demand at the retail level at the wholesale level the manufacturing level and the raw materials level (the P.I.E. of higher levels of the value chain being always smaller than the P.I.E. of levels at lower levels of the same value chain assuming all levels maintain minimum profitability).

The latent demand for facial skin care moisturizers is not actual or historic sales. Nor is latent demand future sales. In fact latent demand can be lower either lower or higher than actual sales if a market is inefficient (i.e. not representative of relatively competitive levels). Inefficiencies arise from a number of factors including the lack of international openness cultural barriers to consumption regulations and cartel-like behavior on the part of firms. In general however latent demand is typically larger than actual sales in a country market.

For reasons discussed later this report does not consider the notion of “unit quantities” only total latent revenues (i.e. a calculation of price times quantity is never made though one is implied). The units used in this report are U.S. dollar[]More detail ...

Its all natural - your skin is plumped refreshed and replenished from deep within using Deep Penetrating Light - DPL Therapy. DPL Therapy utilizes Red and Infrared LED wavelengths and a proprietary design based on NASA research to treat aging photodamaged skin. Laboratory studies have shown that skin cells grow 150-200 percent faster when exposed to certain LED light wavelengths. Independent research for over 40 years has shown LED Red and Infrared light delivers powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissue. Both visible Red and Infrared light has been shown to affect at least 24 different positive changes at a cellular level. DPL Therapy is a non-invasive procedure that activates skin cells with pulses of low-level non-thermal light energy. DPL Therapy converts light energy within the skin cells like photosynthesis which takes sunlight and converts it into food energy in plants.
