Quick business studies question...

Zziggi

Can anyone tell me what is the definition of a "small business", "medium sized business" "large sized business" in terms of number of employees?

Thinking back 15 years (gosh!!) to GCSE economics, i seem to remember a small business was up to 99 employees but i could be wrong. I am mostly interested in the "medium sized business" number of employees.

a good guestimate by a student in the field will do

thanks in advance

micro firm: 0-9 employees;
small firm: 0-49 employees (includes micro);
medium firm: 50-249 employees;
large firm: over 250 employees.

ta. You're a life saver. Especially since i told a teeny-weeny porkie to my tutor on saturday evening that I had posted the essay to her that very day so she'd get it on Monday when at 1am Monday it is still being written.:o
