toThresholds: Convert probabilities to credit quality thresholds.

Description

Use this function to transform transition probabilities into credit quality thresholds.

Usage

toThresholds(trans)

Arguments

trans

a m-by-m matrix with transition probabilities, in percent. Entries cannot be negative and cannot exceed 100, and all rows must sum up to 100.

Value

Returns a m-by-m matrix of credit quality thresholds
