                     Business Applications (BA) that have a high propensity of turning into
                     businesses with payroll. The identification of high-propensity
                     applications is based on the characteristics of applications revealed
                     on the IRS Form SS-4 that are associated with a high rate of business
                     formation. High-propensity applications include applications: (a) for
                     a corporate entity, (b) that indicate they are hiring employees,
                     purchasing a business or changing organizational type, (c) that
                     provide a first wages-paid date (planned wages); or (d) that have a
                     NAICS industry code in manufacturing (31-33), retail stores (44),
                     health care (62), or restaurants/food service (72).
