Abstract

This study investigates the impact of corporate sustainability practices—specifically ESG performance, renewable energy adoption, and sustainability-oriented tax strategies—on tax avoidance within Indonesia’s energy sector. It explores the intersection between fiscal strategy and environmental governance in addressing ethical and sustainability-related challenges in corporate behavior. A mixed-methods approach was employed to gain a comprehensive understanding: the quantitative component analyzed 464 firm-year observations, while the qualitative component involved semi-structured interviews with five key informants, including tax professionals and sustainability managers. The quantitative results reveal that firms with stronger ESG engagement, higher proportions of renewable energy usage, and lower effective tax rates tend to exhibit lower levels of tax avoidance. These findings are reinforced by qualitative insights, which indicate that ethical values, reputational concerns, and organizational transparency significantly influence managerial tax decisions. However, inconsistent fiscal incentives and regulatory uncertainties in Indonesia remain major barriers to integrating sustainability into corporate tax strategies. This study contributes to the literature by reframing tax avoidance not merely as a legal or financial matter, but as a strategic sustainability issue embedded in corporate governance and operations. It offers practical policy implications, highlighting the need for coherent and targeted fiscal incentives to support the clean energy transition and ethical tax conduct in emerging economies. Keywords: Tax Avoidance; ESG Performance; Renewable Energy; Sustainability Governance; Mixed-Methods Approach.

Abstract

This study analyses the role of independent commissioners and audit committees in carrying out their supervisory functions on corporate tax policies taken by internal management, gender analysis on independent commissioners and audit committees is unique to this study where different behaviors of men and women have different impacts on independent commissioners and audit committees in carrying out their supervisory functions. A total of 570-panel data from 2015 to 2021 financial statements of manufacturing companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange were analyzed, this study found that multi-gender audit committees have a role in encouraging management to comply with tax regulations in the policies taken, as well as female audit committees and male independent commissioners separately. These results provide input for investors who are concerned about entity tax information to choose entities with criteria according to the findings of this study, namely entities that have multi-gender audit committees, entities that have female audit committees only, or entities that have independent commissioners only because the supervisory function carried out is optimal in encouraging tax-compliant entities and entities avoid the risk of tax penalties in the future.

Abstract

Taxation serves as one of the most crucial sources of state revenue for financing various development programs and public services This study examines the effect of CEO narcissism, related party transactions, and audit quality on tax avoidance. The sample consists of 34 infrastructure companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2018–2023 period. The analysis uses panel data regression with a Fixed Effect model, selected based on Hausman and Chow test results. Findings show that CEO narcissism and related party transactions have a significant positive effect on tax avoidance, while audit quality has a significant negative effect. This study expands existing literature by integrating behavioral, transactional, and governance dimensions into a unified framework for analyzing tax avoidance. It is among the few studies applying a visual-based proxy CEO photo prominence to measure narcissism in the Indonesian context. A noteworthy context of this study is the regulatory exemption from the 4:1 debt-to-equity ratio limit granted to infrastructure firms in Indonesia, allowing them greater flexibility in financing through related party loans. While supporting development goals, this exemption also raises the risk of tax avoidance. By highlighting how personality traits, intra-group financing, and auditor oversight interact, this study offers insights for improving corporate governance and tax policy, particularly in strategic sectors like infrastructure.

Abstract

Infrastructure development is a strategic national priority in Indonesia, supported by State Capital Participation (PMN) in state-owned enterprises (SOEs), particularly in the construction sector. However, implementing PSAK 72 presents major challenges when applied to construction claims. This qualitative case study investigates how revenue from construction claims is recognized and disclosed in a SOE engaged in national infrastructure projects. Based on semi-structured interviews with board members and accounting standard-setters, the findings reveal a significant gap between PSAK 72’s normative requirements and field practices. While PSAK 72 requires sufficient evidence of performance obligations and high collectibility before recognizing revenue, in practice, revenue is recorded based on site instructions, technical progress, and managerial judgment—often without formal contract modifications. This divergence is driven by the pressure to meet performance targets and ensure financial continuity amid project funding constraints. The study contributes to the accounting literature by uncovering loopholes in claim recognition and proposing a context-sensitive governance framework. These findings offer valuable implications for regulators, auditors, and corporate governance institutions seeking to enhance transparency and alignment in public infrastructure financial reporting.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced manufacturing industries to be efficient in multiple fields. This study examines the effect of raw material management using Material Flow Cost Accounting and waste cost for Non-Product Output cost on implementing cost reduction strategies. Data was gathered by analyzing annual financial reports as well as sustainability reports. The study finds that organizations can reach efficiency by managing the cost of the raw materials using Material Flow Cost Accounting and Non-Product Output costs when implementing a cost reduction strategy. The research contributes to developing the concept of cost reduction through the Environmental Management Accounting approach, which is still rare in this field, in addition to the traditional method of cost accounting that organizations have carried out to achieve cost efficiency.
