Expected Default FrequencyExpected Default Frequency

• Definition – The Probability that a company’s value will fall below a threshold where its unable to pay back its creditors

• Three EDF Drivers for calculation:• Default Point• Market Value of Assets• Asset Volatility

• Case Application: General Electric (GE)

Formula:Formula:

Default PointDefault Point

• Defined – A threshold where the company’s value is not sufficient to payback what it owes

• Between Total Liabilities and ST Liabilities• Empirical Studies Reveal Accurate Formula

Default Point = ST Liabilities + ½ (LT Liabilities)Default Point = ST Liabilities + ½ (LT Liabilities)

Question: Warren Buffet decides to purchase $50 billion in Senior Unsecured Corporate Bonds from GE. What will happen to GE’s EDF

A. It will remain the sameB. It will increase because of the increase to GE’s Default PointC. It will decrease because of the increase to GE’s Market Value of AssetsD. It will increase because the increase to MV of Assets will not have as

great of an effect as the Default Point increase.

• Uncertainty (Volatility) of a Firm• High Volatility = Greater Probability Of Default• Equity Return v. Asset Return
