YOUR RESPONSE IS REQUIRED BY LAW. Title 13, United States Code, requires businesses and other organizations
that receive this questionnaire to answer the questions and return the report to the U.S. Census Bureau. By the same
law, YOUR CENSUS REPORT IS CONFIDENTIAL. It may be seen only by persons sworn to uphold the confidentiality
of Census Bureau information and may be used only for statistical purposes. Further, copies retained in respondents'
files are immune from legal process. Data supplied in all items for 2007 on this form will satisfy the mandatory reporting
requirements. (Title 13, U.S. Code.) Except as noted in specific questions, this report should cover your entire consolidated
domestic enterprise, including all subsidiaries in the 50 United States and D.C. Reasonable estimates are acceptable.
This survey is conducted jointly with the National Science Foundation.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (R&D)
R&D includes basic and applied research in the
sciences and engineering. It also includes design
and development of new products and processes and
enhancement of existing products and processes.
R&D includes activities carried on by persons
trained, either formally or by experience, in the
physical sciences such as chemistry and physics,
the biological sciences such as medicine, and
engineering and computer science. R&D includes
these activities if the purpose is to do one or more of
the following things:
1. Pursue a planned search for new scientific
knowledge or understanding that does not have
specific immediate commercial objectives, although
it may be in fields of present or potential commercial
interest. (Basic research)
11001013
2. Apply the findings of basic research or other
existing knowledge toward discovering new
scientific knowledge that has specific commercial
objectives, including work required to evaluate
possible uses, with respect to new products, services,
processes, or methods. (Applied research)
3. Systematically use the knowledge or
understanding gained from research and practical
experience in the production or significant
improvement of products, services, processes, or
methods, including the design and development
of prototypes, materials, devices, and systems.
(Development)
Research and development includes the activities
described above whether assigned to separate R&D
organizational units of the company or carried out
by company laboratories and technical groups not
part of an R&D organization. Reporting the R&D
activities of such latter groups may require the use of
estimates for some of your responses.
Activities to be excluded from R&D are as follows:
research in social sciences or psychology, routine
product testing, geological and geophysical
exploration activities and technical services.
See instructions for more detail.
