Abstract

This study has analyzed predication capabilities leveraging multi-variate model, logistic regression model, and artificial neural network model based on financial information of medium-small sized companies list in KOSDAQ. 83 delisted companies from 2009 to 2012 and 83 normal companies, i.e. 166 firms in total were sampled for the analysis. Modelling with training data was mobilized for 100 companies inlcuding 50 delisted ones and 50 normal ones at random out of the 166 companies. The rest of samples, 66 companies, were used to verify accuracies of the models. Each model was designed by carrying out T-test with 79 financial ratios for the last 5 years and identifying 9 significant variables. T-test has shown that financial profitability variables were major variables to predict a financial risk at an early stage, and financial stability variables and financial cashflow variables were identified as additional significant variables at a later stage of insolvency. When predication capabilities of the models were compared, for training data, a logistic regression model exhibited the highest accuracy while for test data, the artificial neural networks model provided the most accurate results. There are differences between the previous researches and this study as follows. Firstly, this study considered a time-series aspect in light of the fact that failure proceeds gradually. Secondly, while previous studies constructed a multivariate discriminant model ignoring normality, this study has reviewed the regularity of the independent variables, and performed comparisons with the other models. Policy implications of this study is that the reliability for the disclosure documents is important because the simptoms of firm's fail woule be shown on financial statements according to this paper. Therefore institutional arragements for restraing moral laxity from accounting firms or its workers should be strengthened.

본 연구는 코스닥 시장에 상장 폐지된 중소제조기업의 재무자료를 이용하여 다변량 판별분석모형, 로지스틱회귀분석모형 그리고 인공신경망분석모형을 구축하고 이들의 예측력을 비교분석하였다. 표본기업은 2009년에서 2012년까지 상장 폐지된 83개의 부실기업과 83개의 정상기업 총166개사로 정하였다. 166개사 중에서 무작위로 부실기업50개사와 정상기업 50개사 총100개사를 선정하여 훈련용 표본(training data)으로 모형을 구축하는데 사용하였다. 나머지 66개사는 모형의 예측성과를 평가하기 위하여 검증용 표본(test data)으로 사용하였다. 과거 5년 동안의 재무비율 79개 자료로 T-test를 실시하여 5년 연속 유의미한 변수 9개를 선정하고 각각의 모형을 구축하였다. T-test 결과, 부실초기에는 주로 수익성지표들이 부실예측에 주요 변수로 나타났으며 부실 후반에 가면서 안정성지표와 현금흐름지표들이 추가로 유의미한 변수로 나타났다. 모형의 예측력을 비교해 보면 훈련용 표본의 경우, 로지스틱회귀분석모형이 가장 높은 분류 정확도를 보였고, 검증용 표본의 경우에는 인공신경망모형이 가장 높은 분류 정확도를 보였다. 본 연구는 첫째, 부실이 서서히 진행된다는 점을 감안하여 T-test를 실시하여 5년 연속 유의미한 변수로 모형을 구축하여 변수의 시계열적인 측면이 고려되었다는 점과, 둘째, 기존 선행 연구들이 정규성을 무시하고 판별분석모형을 구축하였으나, 본 연구가 정규성 여부를 검정하고 모형을 구축하였다는 점이 차별화된다. 본 연구에 따른 정책적 시사점은 부실기업의 징후는 본 논문에서처럼 대체로 재무제표에 나타나기 때문에 회사에 대한 공시서류의 신회성 확보가 중요하다. 따라서 이런 점에서 회계법인 혹은 세무기장 종사자들의 도덕적 해이을 억제할 수 있는 제도적 장치가 강화되어야 할 것이다.
