The subsidy can be provided to small and medium enterprise, individuals that are heavily affected. It is not for a specific purpose, so it can be used for the continuation of the business.
How much is the maximum amount of the subsidy?
The maximum amount of the subsidy for small and medium enterprise is 2 million yen.
The maximum amount of the subsidy for individuals is 1 million yen.
(Example)
You are a small and medium enterprise.
The total sales in 2019 was 30 million yen.
The sales in April 2019 was 2 million yen.
The sales in April 2020 was 1 million yen.
30,000,000-(1,000,000*12) =18,000,000 yen
Your subsidy is 2 million yen.
