Awarding-agency 073 meeting California

Small Business Administration as awarding agency, California as place-of-performance: 47,838 records summing to $113,786,640.98. A Small Business Administration award coded outside CA is out. An award in California from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. California (CA) excludes Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona. A Reno-coded award is Nevada even if the borrower sits near the border.

Forty-seven thousand eight hundred thirty-eight awards against $113,786,640.98 is a thick action file: many rows, a modest implied mean, not a handful of oversized vehicles. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 47,838 as 47,838 unique small businesses, named borrowers, or guaranteed-loan counts as a firm census. Small Business Administration in California is the both-keys table. California federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Small Business Administration is the agency book without a CA filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Loan-action rows are not unique firms

$113,786,640.98 does not measure unique small businesses, named borrowers, or guaranteed-loan counts as a firm census. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 073 and a CA place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 47,838 awards as a census of unique small businesses, named borrowers, or guaranteed-loan counts as a firm census. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If California federal spending or Small Business Administration matched $113,786,640.98 and 47,838, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Nevada, Oregon, and Arizona SBA 073 joins are other pairs, not addends.
