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

Other Details
Payments are usually made quarterly in arrears
In the event of default there is a final accrual
payment by the buyer
Increasingly settlement is in cash and an auction
process determines cash amount
Suppose payments are made quarterly in the
example just considered. What are the cash
flows if there is a default after 3 years and 1
month and recovery rate is 40%?

A coupon and a recovery rate is specified
There is an initial payments from the buyer
to the seller or vice versa reflecting the

Risk-free Rate
The risk-free rate used by bond traders when quoting
credit spreads is the Treasury rate
The risk-free rate traditionally assumed in derivatives
markets is the LIBOR/swap rate
By comparing CDS spreads and bond yields it appears
that in normal market conditions traders are assuming
a risk-free rate 10 bp less than the LIBOR/swap rates
In stressed market conditions the gap between the
LIBOR/swap rate and the true risk-free rate is liable
to be much higher
