Introduction The 2007 study was designed to obtain updated information about the status of businesses and owning families and also to learn about the impact of natural disasters and disaster relief on business viability 268 variables in the panel data are 2007 variables, and they are located on pp. 154-185 of the codebook

Whats New Variables that were in the data set but not the codebook have been added to the codebook See handout for variables added to the codebook New variables have been added to the data set and codebook (e.g., dispo07, b2com07, b17com07, b21com07)
Whats New cont. B5com07: Did your business incur any losses from the disaster?

Homework Question #1: Please determine how many businesses were open in 2007 and how many businesses were closed in 2007. We want you to get into the codebook and find the appropriate variable to use for this frequency. (HINT: It is in the Computed Variables section of the 2007 wave)
Homework cont. Answer : 223 were open, 116 were closed
Homework cont. Question #2 Look in the codebook for and then run frequencies of disaster variables b507, s6g07, and b5com07. Though each variable appears similar in wording, what is the difference between them? (HINT: Prior to running frequencies of these variables, you will need to use a filter provided to you in the 2007 filter handout)
Answer: All three variables are assessing the same thing, but s6g07 is the screener variable, b507 is the interview variable, and b5com07 is the screener/interview combination variable. Remember that you may need to create a combined variable depending on your RQ.
