Differences in characteristics between firms with and without R&D, 2004 to 2009
Table summary
This table displays the results of Differences in characteristics between firms with and without R&D. The information is grouped by Firm characteristics (dependent variables) (appearing as row headers), Independent variables , R&D dummy, R&D intensity for firms with positive R&D, Extramural R&D, using ASM data, Extramural R&D, using linked RDCI data and Intramural R&D, using linked RDCI data, calculated using units units of measure (appearing as column headers).

Note significantly different from reference category (p < 0.01) Return to note referrer Note 1. The research and development (R&D) dummy equals 1 for firms with positive R&D, equals 0 otherwise Return to note 1 referrer Notes: All regressions control for year and industry (North American Industry Classification System three-digit code) fixed effects, as wells as employment size (except when the dependent variable is employment). Regressions for foreign control are based on probit models. Where the R&D dummy equals 1 for firms with positive R&D and 0 otherwise, the number of observations for extramural R&D (R&D purchased from domestic and foreign suppliers) using data from the Annual Survey of Manufactures (ASM), for extramural R&D using linked data from the Research and Development in Canadian Industry (RCDI) database and for intramural R&D (R&D performed in-house) using linked RDCI data is 168,424. For the R&D intensity for firms with positive R&D, the number of observations for extramural R&D using ASM data is 121,644 to 122,544, it is 19,410 to 19,486 for extramural R&D using linked RDCI data and 42,106 to 42,314 for intramural R&D using linked RDCI data.
