Abstract

Financial distress is occurred before bankruptcy. This condition could be predicted by analyzing Financial Statement. This study aims to determine whether there is significant influence between profit margin ratio, financial leverage ratio, current ratio, and quick ratio on Financial distress to determine how much their influeance on Financial distress in a Company. Based on result of data processing using SPSS 17.0 version, the author obtained value of  multiple correlation coeffiicient in 2008  is 0.933 (R), it means  X₁ (profit margin ratio), X₂ (financial leverage ratio), X₃ (current ratio) and X₄ (quick ratio) jointly have strong and positive relationship in predicting Financial distress, And for value of multiple correlation coefficient in 2009, obtained 0.582 (R), it means  X₁ (profit margin ratio), X₂ (financial leverage ratio), X₃ (current ratio) and X₄ (quick ratio) jointly have strong and positive relationship in predicting Financial distress. Based on F-test calculation in 2008, multiple linear regression is obtained that F_hitung > F_table. Value of F_hitung  is 40,962, whereas value of  F_table is 2,922, it means that Ha is rejected and Ho is accepted. This means regression model can be used to predict financial distress condition  or it can be said that X₁ (profit margin ratio), X₂ (financial leverage ratio), X₃ (current ratio) and X₄ (quick ratio) jointly influence significanly on Company’s Financial Statement condition (Y). whereas for F-test calculation in 2009, multiple linear regression is obtained that F_hitung > F_table , value of F_hitung is 13,839 and value of F_table is 2,922. it means that Ha is rejected and Ho is accepted. This means regression model can be used to predict financial distress condition  or it can be said that X₁ (profit margin ratio), X₂ (financial leverage ratio), X₃ (current ratio) and X₄ (quick ratio) jointly influence significantly on Company’s Financial Statement condition (Y).
