Suzie Posted: Saturday 4th June 2005, 12:32 AM About 82.5 percent of small firms used some form of credit in 1998. Small firms use many different sources of capital, including their own savings, loans from family and friends, and business loans from financial institutions. Credit cards, credit lines, and vehicle loans are the most often used types of credit. Commercial banks are the leading suppliers of credit, followed by owners and finance companies. Data from the Federal Reserve Board Survey of Small Businesses Finances, 2003 are currently being prepared. Looking for the archives? Look to your right or See My Oldest Posts Thanks for stopping by. Suzie Posted: Friday 3rd June 2005, 3:12 AM Owners of about one-third of the firms that closed said their firm was successful at closure. Major factors in a firm’s remaining open include an ample supply of capital, the fact that a firm is large enough to have employees, the owner’s education level, and the owner’s reason for starting the firm in the first place, such as freedom for family life or wanting to be one’s own boss. Business survival also varies by industry and demographics. The industry with the highest 1992–1996 survival rate for firms owned by white non-Hispanics was oil and gas extraction (82 percent survival rate over the four-year period). African Americans were most successful in legal services (79 percent), and Hispanic and Asian Americans in health services (66 percent and 76 percent, respectively). Hope that helps. Adult beverages?

Of 115.1 million nonfarm private sector workers in 2001, ( the most recent data I have to share with you ), small firms with fewer than 500 workers employed 57.4 million and large firms, 57.7 million.

Suzie Suzie's Business Blog Posted: Wednesday 1st June 2005, 2:36 AM Firms with less than 500 employees saw a net increase in employment of 1,150,875; however, large business employment decreased on net by 150,905. Overall net employment increased 999,970. The small business share varies from year to year and reflects economic trends. Over the decade of the 1990s, small business net job creation fluctuated between 60 and 80 percent. Having small businesses account for all of the net new jobs is not unique to 2000-2001. During the last economic downturn in the early 1990s, a similar result occurred. During an economic downturn in the early 1990’s, a similar result occurred. Interesting facts.

Travel Blog - Visiting Abroad Posted: Monday 30th May 2005, 1:36 AM In 2003, there were approximately 23.7 million businesses in the United States, according to Office of Advocacy estimates. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) estimates there were 27.0 million business tax returns in 2003; however, this number may overestimate the number of firms, as one business can operate more than one taxable entity. IRS estimates the number of sole proprietorships (roughly equivalent to nonemployers) increased by 2.4 percent in 2002 and by 1.9 percent in 2003. Census data show there were 5.7 million firms with employees and 17.0 million without employees in 2001. Applying the sole proprietorship growth rates to the nonemployer figures and similar Department of Labor growth rates to the employer figures produces the 23.7 million figure. Small firms with less than 500 employees represent 99.7 percent of the 23.7 million businesses. You could be one of them! See you tomorrow.
