Of the businesses, 94 were placed into liquidation while 19 went into administration.
A liquidator is appointed by directors or a court order if the company becomes insolvent.

An administrator is usually called in to prevent the company being placed into liquidation.
Brisbane’s ‘number one’ construction and earthmoving company, McManaway Earthmoving, closed after six years in operation.
Workers at Goondicum Mine in regional Queensland face an uncertain future after its parent company, Melior Resources, was put into administration.
There were problems in tourism too with Gold Coast hinterland venture Gummies Farm and Bush Tours, which offered a farmstay experience, horse riding and four-wheel-drive tours, put into liquidation.
The CFMMEU was to blame for Jeremy Bell’s Construction Cleaning Group (Qld) Pty Ltd going into liquidation, he said.
That company owes $756,672 to the Australian Tax Office and $160,000 to Builders Discount Warehouse at Springwood.
The CFMMEU denies it is to blame.
