Section 15

Business Enterprise
This section relates to the place and
behavior of the business firm and to
business initiative in the American
economy. It includes data on the number,
type, and size of businesses; financial
data of domestic and multinational U.S.
corporations; business investments,
expenditures, and profits; and sales and
inventories.
The principal sources of these data are
the Survey of Current Business, published
by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA);
the Web site of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System at
<http://www.federalreserve.gov
/econresdata/default.htm>; the annual
Statistics of Income (SOI) reports of the
Internal Revenue Service (IRS); and the
U.S. Census Bureaus Economic Census,
County Business Patterns, Quarterly
Financial Report for Manufacturing,
Mining, and Trade Corporations (QFR),
Survey of Business Owners, and Annual
Capital Expenditures Survey.
Business firmsA firm is generally
defined as a business organization under
a single management and may include
one or more establishments. The terms
firm, business, company, and enterprise
are used interchangeably throughout this
section. A firm doing business in more
than one industry is classified by industry
according to the major activity of the firm
as a whole.
The IRS concept of a business firm relates
primarily to the legal entity used for tax
reporting purposes. A sole proprietorship
is an unincorporated business owned
by one person and may include large
enterprises with many employees and
hired managers and part-time operators.
A partnership is an unincorporated business owned by two or more persons, each
of whom has a financial interest in the
business. A corporation is a business that
is legally incorporated under state laws.
While many corporations file consolidated
tax returns, most corporate tax returns
represent individual corporations, some

of which are affiliated through common


ownership or control with other corporations filing separate returns.
Economic censusThe economic
census is the major source of facts
about the structure and functioning
of the nations economy. It provides
essential information for government,
business, industry, and the general public.
It furnishes an important part of the
framework for such composite measures
as the gross domestic product estimates,
input/output measures, production and
price indexes, and other statistical series
that measure shortterm changes in
economic conditions. The Census Bureau
takes the economic census every 5 years,
covering years ending in 2 and 7.
The economic census is collected on
an establishment basis. A company
operating at more than one location is
required to file a separate report for
each store, factory, shop, or other location. Each establishment is assigned a
separate industry classification based on
its primary activity and not that of its
parent company. Establishments responding to the establishment survey are
classified into industries on the basis
of their principal product or activity
(determined by annual sales volume).
The statistics issued by industry in the
2007 Economic Census are classified
primarily on the 2007 North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS),
and, to a lesser extent, on the 2002 NAICS
used in the previous census (see below).
More detailed information about the
scope, coverage, methodology, classification system, data items, and publications
for each of the economic censuses and
related surveys is published in the 2007
Economic Census User Guide at
<http://www.census.gov/econ/census07
/www/user_guide.html>.
Data from the 2007 Economic Census
are released through the Census Bureaus
American FactFinder service on the

Survey of Business Owners


The Survey of Business Owners (SBO)
provides statistics that describe the
composition of U.S. businesses by gender,
ethnicity, race and veteran status. Data
from SBO are published in a series of
releases: American Indian- and Alaska
Native-Owned Firms, Asian-Owned Firms,
Black-Owned Firms, Hispanic-Owned
Firms, Native Hawaiian- and Other Pacific
Islander-Owned Firms, Women-Owned
Firms, Veteran-Owned Firms, Characteristics of Business Owners and Company
Summary. Data are presented by industry
classifications, geographic area, and size
of firm (employment and receipts). Each
owner had the option of selecting more
than one race and therefore is included in
each race selected. For more information,
see <http://www.census.gov/econ/sbo/>.
North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS)
NAICS is the standard used by federal
statistical agencies in classifying business
establishments for the purpose of collecting, analyzing, and publishing statistical
data related to the U.S. business economy.
NAICS was developed under the auspices
of the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), and adopted in 1997 to replace
the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)
system. The official 2007 U.S. NAICS Manual includes definitions for each industry,
background information, tables showing
changes between 2002 and 2007, and a
comprehensive index. For more information, see <http://www.census.gov/eos
/www/naics/>.
Changes between 2002 NAICS and 2007
NAICS are relatively minor, but do affect
totals for sectors 52 (finance and insurance), 53 (real estate, rental, and leasing),
54 (professional, scientific, and technical
services), and 56 (admin., support, waste
mgt., and remediation services). Nearly
all industries are comparable from 2002
to 2007 NAICS classifications. Several

Quarterly Financial Report


The Quarterly Financial Report (QFR)
program publishes quarterly aggregate
statistics on the financial conditions
of U.S. corporations. The QFR requests
companies to report estimates from their
statements of income and retained earnings, and balance sheets. The statistical
data are classified and aggregated by
type of industry and asset size. The QFR
sample includes manufacturing companies with assets of $250 thousand and
above, and mining, wholesale, retail, and
selected service companies with assets of
$50 million and above. The data are available quarterlyin the Quarterly Financial
Report for Manufacturing, Mining, and
Trade Corporations at
<http://www.census.gov/econ/qfr
/index.html>.
Multinational companies
BEA collects financial and operating
data on U.S. multinational companies.
These data provide a picture of the
overall activities of foreign affiliates and
U.S. parent companies, using a variety of
indicators of their financial structure and
operations. The data on foreign affiliates
cover the entire operations of the affiliate,
irrespective of the percentage of
U.S. ownership. These data cover items
such as sales, value added, employment
and compensation of employees, capital
expenditures, exports and imports, and
research and development expenditures.
Separate tabulations are available for
all affiliates and for affiliates that are
majority-owned by their U.S. parent(s).
More information is available at
<http://www.bea.gov/international/index

of statistical collection, estimation, and
sampling procedures and measures of

Service, see Appendix III.

Excludes investment income except for partnerships and corporations in finance, insurance, and real estate before 1998.
Beginning 1998, finance and insurance, real estate, and management of companies included investment income for partnerships
and corporations. Excludes investment income for S corporations; for definition, see footnote 1, Table 753. 2 Net income (less loss)
is defined differently by form of organization, basically as follows: (a) Proprietorships: Total taxable receipts less total business
deductions, including cost of sales and operations, depletion, and certain capital expensing, excluding charitable contributions
and owners salaries; (b) Partnerships: Total taxable receipts (including investment income except capital gains) less deductions,
including cost of sales and operations and certain payments to partners, excluding charitable contributions, oil and gas depletion,
and certain capital expensing; (c) Corporations: Total taxable receipts (including investment income, capital gains, and income from
foreign subsidiaries deemed received for tax purposes, except for S corporations) less business deductions, including cost of sales
and operations, depletion, certain capital expensing, and officers compensation excluding S corporation charitable contributions
and investment expenses; net income is before income tax.

Employer: 2009
[In thousands (2,794 represents 2,794,000). A firm may have one establishment (a single unit establishment) or many
establishments (a multi-unit firm). Firms are defined at the enterprise level such that all establishments under the operational

North American Industry Classification System codes. Data are also not comparable to U.S. Small Business Administration

Births are establishments that have zero employment in the first quarter of the initial year and positive employment in
the first quarter of the subsequent year. 2 Deaths are establishments that have positive employment in the first quarter of
the initial year and zero employment in the first quarter of the subsequent year. 3 Expansions are establishments that have
positive first quarter employment in both the initial and subsequent years and increase employment during the time period
between the first quarter of the initial year and the first quarter of the subsequent year. 4 Contractions are establishments that
have positive first quarter employment in both the initial and subsequent years and decrease employment during the time period
between the first quarter of the initial year and the first quarter of the subsequent year.

Crude processing covers a relatively small portion of total industrial capacity and consists of logging (NAICS 1133), much
of mining (excluding stone, sand, and gravel mining, and oil and gas drilling, which are NAICS 21231, 212212, and 213111)
and some basic manufacturing industries, including basic chemicals (NAICS 3251); fertilizers, pesticides, and other agricultural
chemicals (NAICS 32531,2); pulp, paper, and paperboard mills (NAICS 3221); and alumina, aluminum, and other nonferrous
production and processing mills (NAICS 3313,4). 2 Primary and semifinished processing loosely corresponds to the previously
published aggregate, primary processing. Includes utilities and portions of several 2-digit SIC industries included in the former
advanced processing group. These include printing and related support activities (NAICS 3231); paints and adhesives (NAICS
3255); and newspaper, periodical, book, and directory publishers (NAICS 5111). 3 Finished processing generally corresponds to
the previously published aggregate, advanced processing. Includes oil and gas well drilling and carpet and rug mills.
