Sample<br />

Size<br />

Notes: (1) Reported estimates are Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) coefficients, t-statistics in parentheses. (2) Each<br />

line <strong>of</strong> this table represents a separate regression with all <strong>of</strong> the control variables as Column 5 <strong>of</strong> Table 6.8 (except<br />

where specified) as well as: an indicator variable for whether the loan request was for a fixed interest rate loan, the<br />

length <strong>of</strong> the loan, the size <strong>of</strong> the loan, whether the loan was guaranteed, whether the loan was secured by collateral,<br />

<strong>and</strong> 7 variables identifying the type <strong>of</strong> collateral used if the loan was secured. (3) <strong>The</strong> sample consists <strong>of</strong> firms that<br />

had applied for a loan <strong>and</strong> had their application approved. (4) “No credit problems” means that neither the firm nor<br />

the owner had been delinquent on payments over 60 days, no judgments against the owner for the preceding 3 years,<br />

<strong>and</strong> the owner had not been bankrupt in the preceding 7 years.<br />
