Note: This table demonstrates how the results of the failure-prediction model can be used to create an individual expected-failure probability for each institution.

a The raw score is the product of columns A and B. Via the formula in note 7, the total score produces the expected probability of failure (Pr(default)) through the transformation.

The probability of default equals the natural exponent minus 5.52 divided by one plus the natural exponent minus 5.52 equals 0.39 percent.
