The differences in their degrees of concentration are not very large. A still greater dif- ference exists between the two small groups of companies on one hand and the large companies on the other as shown below : Companies with Companies with Companies with Total Equities Total Equities Total Equities of 5-9 of 10-49 of 50 mallions Percentage of cases with neg- millions millions and over ative ratios (0—.209) . 5.6% 6.39, nN In the two smaller groups of companies, 5.6 per cent and 6.3 per cent of the cases had a deficit instead of a surplus, while no cases of a deficit are recorded for the companies with over 50 millions of total equities. In every respect, the large companies appear to be in better condition so far as this is reflected in the size of the item surplus and reserves.
