Table 1
Predicted growth rates at different quantiles, by selected firm size and firm age, Canada, 2000 to 2009
Table summary
This table displays the results of Predicted growth rates at different quantiles. The information is grouped by Firm size and age (appearing as row headers), Quantile, 0.05, 0.10, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 0.90 and 0.95, calculated using growth rate units of measure (appearing as column headers).

Notes: ALUs signifies Average Labour Units. The results that follow hold at the 95% confidence level for the growth rates presented in this table. For each size–age combination, the growth rate at the median is statistically different from the growth rate at all other quantiles. At quantiles above the median, the predicted growth rates are statistically larger for firms that are two years old compared to all other ages—this holds for all size groups. At quantiles below the median, the predicted growth rates are statistically lower for firms with 1 to less than 5 ALUs compared to all other size groups—this holds for all ages presented.
