I'm a student doing Economics in UK. Recent days I'm handling a project
regarding discriminant analysis, which needs STATA to deal with the data
that I have.
My project is about bankruptcy prediction. I have about 80 companies'
financial statements, from which I'll use several ratios. They are: credit
grade, % change in net cash cycle, gearing, net profit margin, current
ratio, liquid ratio. The 'credit grade' is from 1 to 14. What I'm going to
do is to use discriminant analysis to distinguish those companies into two
groups (above credit grade 11 and below credit grade 11) according to above
ratios.
As I'm just about to start to use STATA and I can't find enough help
information about Discriminant Analysis from STATA itself, could you please
give me some detail information or advice about how to proceed it?
It's an important and urgent case for me and your early response will be
highly appreciated.
