Problem 2. (Bass Diffusion for Books) A new novel was published recently, and the demand for it is expected to follow a Bass diffusion process. The publisher decided to print only a limited number of copies, observe the demand for the book for 20 weeks, estimate the Bass parameters, and then undertake a second printing for the remainder of the life cycle of the book using these parameters. The demand for the book during these 20 weeks is reported in the file novel.xlsx. Using these data, estimate m,p, and q. \begin{tabular}{|c|c|} \hline Week & Demand (d_t) \\ \hline 1 & 214 \\ \hline 2 & 262 \\ \hline 3 & 275 \\ \hline 4 & 344 \\ \hline 5 & 385 \\ \hline 6 & 372 \\ \hline 7 & 469 \\ \hline 8 & 507 \\ \hline 9 & 535 \\ \hline 10 & 549 \\ \hline 11 & 587 \\ \hline 12 & 665 \\ \hline 13 & 691 \\ \hline 14 & 708 \\ \hline 15 & 674 \\ \hline 16 & 684 \\ \hline 17 & 723 \\ \hline 18 & 679 \\ \hline 19 & 616 \\ \hline 20 & 645 \\ \hline \end{tabular}
