Abstrakt:
Kralicek´s Quick test is one of the well-known financial diagnostic tests in Europe. This model estimates the financial health of the company using the financial analysis tools with comparison with the created evaluation scale. The model was not created based on the sample of real companies and thus the author (even nobody later) has not tested complexly its informative value. That is why the quantification of informative ability of this model was stated using the tested sample of 1504 Czech companies. Even the model was not created using any statistic method (multiple discriminant analysis, logit analysis, decision trees, support vector machines, neural networks, etc.) it was found that its informative value is comparable to models based on empiric data (77.59% with the variation of one degree and up to 71.43% at the prediction of distress).
