The following work illustrates and describes the financial effects that the COVID-19 pandemic had on small local businesses in Berlin. Based on four selected businesses from three different sectors, the data-collection is used to scale the financial impact of the pandemic on each of the four businesses. The businesses are compared to each other to assess their individual financial development. To understand the reasons behind specific financial changes a selection of the most influential governmental COVID-19 regulations and support measurements will be introduced and briefly explained. Furthermore, a study from the German Institute of Economics is going to be evaluated. Since it analyzes the financial effect of COVID-19 on German businesses in general, their research approach will be discussed and collected information is used to enhance the analysis methods of this study. Used approaches and analyzing methods will be explained during the methodology while also giving insight into the type of data and simultaneously justifying the chosen methods. For the empirical part the collected data gets visualized, meaning each company ́s sales revenue for 2019 and 2020 are charted in a diagram and their respective graph is explained while also highlighting the time span of selected impactful COVID-19 regulations. At the end all results will be interpreted and compared with the study from the German Institute of Economics.
