Small Businesses In The Pearl River Delta Are Mostly "Eating Old Books" &Nbsp, And Expect The Government To Reduce Taxes And Reduce Fees.

Rising raw materials

More than 70% is expected to zero profit in the next half year

Peking University National Development Research Institute and Alibaba visited the 95 small businesses, 11 professional markets and 15 local banks in 6 Pearl River Delta cities in Shenzhen last month, and conducted online research on 2889 small businesses in the Pearl River Delta through the form of network questionnaires.

The report shows that compared with 2010, the profit of small businesses has decreased by about 30% to 40% this year.

First, 72.48% of small businesses say that the cost of raw materials is the biggest difficulty in operation. The cost of raw materials in most industries is about 20% to 50% higher than in 2010.

Second, the increase in labor costs has squeezed the profits of small businesses. The wages of small enterprises in the Pearl River Delta have increased by 20% to 30% compared to 2010, and the wages of some senior technicians have risen by more than 100%.

The average monthly salary of an ordinary worker in the Pearl River Delta is around 2000~3000 yuan, and skilled workers can reach 4000~5000 yuan.

Third, the number of small business orders in the PRD declined by about 30% compared with 2010, which reduced the operating rate of small businesses from 70.92% over the previous year to 70.92%.

Nevertheless, the phenomenon of small businesses "shut down" has not appeared in large scale.

The report shows that the phenomenon of "eating old books" among small businesses is serious at present.

72.45% of small businesses expect no profit or a small loss in the next 6 months, and 3.29% of small businesses expect substantial losses in the next 6 months.

Most companies choose to lose weight rather than close factories.

Hu Xiaoming, vice president of Alibaba group, said that in Shenzhen, investigators visited 5 financial institutions such as Bank of communications Shenzhen branch, and 13 small businesses in different industries such as Shenzhen Jiaxing cloth industry Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Southern China city and other professional markets, and found that Shenzhen enterprises did not appear on a large scale to stop production and stop production. However, because of the rising raw materials and the increase of labor costs, most of the enterprises' profits had been greatly reduced.

The research team found that small businesses in Shenzhen generally felt the tightening of money and increased difficulty in loans. Interbank personages reflected that the demand for loans increased this year. At the same time, financing channels for small businesses in Shenzhen increased continuously. In recent years, small loan companies, Guarantee Corporation and private lending channels have been increasing. The annual interest rate of most small businesses in bank loans is around 15%, the annual interest rate of loans for small loan companies is about 20% ~ 30%, and the annual interest rate in private capital market financing is about 30% to 50%, mainly based on collateral and security.

In the face of difficulties, most of the small businesses with low operating rate are mainly slimming rather than closing factories.

Some small businesses have adjusted the strategy of stocking and ordering raw materials.

In order to prevent RMB appreciation and domestic raw material price fluctuations, some small businesses split large orders into small orders to shorten the production cycle and concentrate their efforts on orders with shorter settlement periods to control profits.

The government should "reduce taxes and reduce fees".

Hu Xiaoming said that at present, the financing channels of small enterprises are very narrow, and 53.03% of the small enterprises in the survey rely solely on their own capital turnover, and have never had external financing.

Only 46.97% of small businesses have a history of borrowing, and more than 60% of them borrow money from relatives and friends.

However, of all the small businesses surveyed, 63.3% of small businesses have financing needs, while 75.4% of small business loans demand less than 1 million yuan, that is, the financing funds provided by a bank to a large enterprise may meet the needs of more than 100 small businesses.

Zhou Qiren, Dean of the National Development Research Institute of Peking University, said that the problem of small business financing can not be ignored or expanded.

From the survey data, only 12% of the total funds of small businesses come from financing channels such as banks.

If we start a big currency, we will not go to small and medium-sized enterprises even if we want to "fight money" in the market.

He believed that in order to fundamentally solve this problem, we must adhere to a prudent monetary policy, and then increase the pertinence, supplemented by other policies, including taxation, finance and customs services, to help small businesses tide over difficulties.

The tax reduction policy is more useful than small money companies.

In addition to taxes, we should reduce other fees, not increase the burden of small businesses, and reduce the general reduction. "

For small business owners, his proposal is "insisting". "Whoever can persist can enjoy the benefits of gradual improvement of the whole business environment". "For ultra high profits, we should be vigilant over conventional investment in profiteering, because it is not sustainable".
