Generic exec phrase, larger mean gift

$13,233,638 is the occupation-level dollar total. 17,438 is the itemization count. 1,674 is the donor-record count. Mean contribution size is about $759. Mean dollars per donor record are about $7,905. Repeat giving is about 10 itemizations per donor record.

1,674 donor records against 17,438 lines is a compact pool. The per-line mean of about $759 is larger than high-volume workplace titles in this harvest band and closer to other executive strings that post fewer, larger checks.

These means are not typical-check estimates. The packet has no employer field, no company-size cut, and no gift-size distribution.

BUSINESS EXECUTIVE is not EXECUTIVE

EXECUTIVE, BUSINESS, BUSINESS OWNER, and BUSINESSMAN are neighboring occupation keys. This page cites only BUSINESS EXECUTIVE: $13,233,638, 17,438 contributions, and 1,674 donors. Those other strings stay outside the total unless the bulk extract normalized them here.

The FEC does not verify officer filings. People who used the phrase as a prestige label, owners who typed executive, and staff with a generic C-suite shorthand can all appear. Occupation is per transaction.
