Abstract

This paper examines the effect of board characteristics and institutional ownership on real earnings management. Previous studies have shown that boards monotoring functions increasing as the ouside members increased and tended to decrease when they also serve as board commissioner in another company. Therefore, board commissioners independence are predicted to negatively effect real earnings managements, and the number of jobs that independent members takes in another company positively effect real earnings management. Meanwhile, the institutional ownership is predicted to reduce real earnings management. Firms samples are from Indonesia Stock Exchange in the period 2007-2010.
