Abstract
Early warning system for financial problem that threatened the operation of industry is needed to anticipates financial difficulty to company. One prediction model commonly used is Altman Z-score which analyze combination of financial ratios on financial statement to see the different between bankrupt and non-bankrupt companies. In this model, there are 5 financial ratios indicators that combined to differentiate between bankrupt and non-bankrupt companies, i.e. Working Capital to Total Assets, Retained Earnings to Total Assets, Earning Before Income Tax to Total Assets, Market Value of Equity to Book Value of Liabilities and Sales to Total Assets. These financial ratios represent liquidity, profitability, solvability and activity aspects of the company. The original work of Altman is applied to publicly held manufactures companies. In this study, we use Altman Z-score to property sector in Indonesia.
