X1=Working Capital/Sales
X2=Retained Earnings/Total Assets
X3=EBIT/Total Assets
X4=Market Value of Equity/Book Value of Liabilities
X5=Sales/Total Assets
Z=1.2X1+1.4X2+3.3X3+0.6X4+0.99X5
If the Z>3.0 default is unlikely; if 2.7<Z<3.0 we should be
on alert. If 1.8<Z<2.7 there is a moderate chance of
default; if Z<1.8 there is a high chance of default
