Abstract
This book provides an extended entrepreneurial analysis of small firm inception and growth. It develops a new kind of 'micro-micro' analysis, applying rigorous methods from economics, accounting and finance to gain a deeper understanding of micro-firms, by examining their performance, hierarchy, strategy, capital structure, monitoring and control, flexibility, innovation, and information systems.
Using statistical, econometric and qualitative methods of empirical research, The Foundations of Small Business Enterprise tracks and analyses the evolution of small firms from their early years through to maturity.
