Abstract

Recent concern regarding the performance of the U.S. economy has generated actions on a national level to encourage increases in productivity in the private sector. The private sector is not, however, monolithic. Policies designed to increase the productivity of large corporations may have a neutral or even negative impact on small businesses. This article describes a data base that has recently been developed for national economic analysis and reports differential productivity findings among businesses when they are examined by size on an industry by industry basis.
