Abstract:In the paper, it is hypothesized that recessionary business cycles can contribute to corporate failure. Specifically, a relationship between failure and (1) knowledge that failure occurred during a recession and (2) knowledge that the predictor variables were measured during a recession is tested. It is shown that accounting-based logistic regression models used to predict corporate failure are sensitive to the occurrence of a recession. Furthermore, the results indicate that such models are sensitive to knowledge that the predictor variables were generated during a recession and to knowledge that failure ultimately occurred during a recession.
