%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Inputs:
% DefaultProb: Default probability (%):
% h: Barrier level (%)*: Barrier value / Market value of the firm's assets
% v: Market value of the firm's assets (100%):
% r: Continuously compounded riskless rate of interest (%): Rate of return on one-year US Treasury bills
% sigma: Asset volatility (%): Annual volatility for the market value of the firm's assets: Square root of four times
% the quarterly variance measure: for the previous ten years
% T: Firm's lifespan (=T-t) (years): Assuming a firm lifespan of ten years
function DefaultProb=DefaultProbFunction(h,v,r,sigma,T)
X1=((h-v)-(r-(sigma^2/2))*T)/(sigma*sqrt(T));
X2=(2*(r-sigma^2/2)*(h-v))/(sigma^2);
X3=(-(h-v)-(r-(sigma^2/2))*T)/(sigma*sqrt(T));
DefaultProb=N(X1)+exp(X2)*(1-N(X3));
