Note(s): AUC-ROC means the Area Under the ROC Curve. Non-B. is the number of non-bankrupt companies. Bankrupt is the number of bankrupt companies. Type I error is the percentage of bankrupt companies classified by the model as non-bankrupt, and Type II error is the percentage of non-bankrupt companies classified as bankrupt. Accuracy is the percentage of correctly predicted types in the total sample
