Statistics

The Small Business Administration has published its most detailed accounting yet of the $350 billion small business rescue that Congress created to fight mass layoffs.

The agency's new breakdown of the so-called Paycheck Protection Program shows which industries and regions will likely benefit the most from the loans. The report is a snapshot of the
$247.5 billion in loans approved as of Monday. Key takeaways include:

—    The average loan size was $239,152
—    About 70 percent of the total number of loans approved were for less than $150,000
—    More than 3,200 of the loans were for more than $5 million — a category that accounts for 9 percent of the total dollar amount approved
—    Construction businesses were the top industry recipient of approved Paycheck Protection Program loan dollars at about $34 billion
—    Texas businesses were approved for the biggest sum of loans compared to borrowers in other states — about $21.8 billion

The SBA said Tuesday afternoon that nearly 1.2 million applications were approved, totaling more than $268 billion.
