Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of financial distress and political connections on earnings management and the role of both accrual and real earnings management behavior. This study's detection of financial distress uses two proxies. The sample of this study uses non-financial and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange with 916 observations. The findings show that financial distress significantly affects accrual earnings management behavior, but no evidence supports its effect on real earnings management. Furthermore, political connections are also not proven to affect earnings management. However, companies in financial distress with political connections will be more aggressive in performing real earnings management.

Abstract

This research aims to provide empirical evidence on the influence of the implementation of corporate governance on sustainability reporting disclosure. The governance components in this study focus on the presence, educational background, and frequency of board of commissioners, board of directors, and audit committee meetings that contribute to the establishment, implementation, and oversight of sustainability-related company policies. The research sample consists of 78 non-financial sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) during the period 2020-2022, selected using a purposive sampling method. This research utilizes secondary data sources obtained from the official BEI website, the respective company websites, and S&P Capital IQ to fulfill the data completeness tested with a multiple linear regression model using SPSS application. The research results indicate that the size of the commissioners and the frequency of audit committee meetings have a positive impact on sustainability reporting disclosure. Meanwhile, the research proves that the size of independent commissioners, the size of the board of directors, the size of the audit committee, the educational background of commissioners, the educational background of independent commissioners, the educational background of directors, the frequency of board of commissioners’ meetings, and the frequency of board of directors meeting do not have a significant impact on sustainability reporting disclosure. The implications of this research can raise awareness among business stakeholders and regulators about the importance of the role of commissioners and the frequency of audit committee meetings in enhancing sustainability reporting practices.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the correlation between board composition and cybersecurity disclosure (CSD) in Southeast Asia banking companies, while  investigating the influence of financial characteristics such as profitability, leverage, and firm size on CSD practices. The quantitative analysis methodology is employed in this paper. The level of cybersecurity disclosure in annual reports is analyzed using content analysis with 54 keywords, analyzed through NVIVO 14 software. The correlation between variables is examined using STATA Software with panel data comprising 391 observations. The study focuses on 101 Southeast Asia banking companies from 2017 to 2021. The results indicate that only firm size, measured by the natural logarithm of total assets, has a positive and significant influence on CSD. This suggests that larger firms with higher total assets are more likely to voluntarily disclose cybersecurity information in their annual reports. No statistically significant correlation is found between board composition, other financial factors, and CSD during the study period. This paper acknowledges its limitations and proposes directions for future research. Firstly, the study is limited to listed commercial banks. Future research should include a larger sample encompassing non-financial industry firms. Secondly, the study employs automated content analysis, specifically counting keywords, to assess the quantity of CSD. Future research could conduct discourse analysis of CSD narratives to provide a more meaningful analysis. This approach would evaluate whether the language and tone of CSD convey substantial information to stakeholders or if it is merely a standardized practice. Additionally, future research should explore other variables impacting voluntary CSD and examine economic consequences, such as the effect on the cost of capital. The findings have implications for regulators, policymakers, and companies, enabling regulators to better understand the current level of CSD and determine the need for further guidance.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of the number of clients and complexity on audit quality at the engagement partner and public accounting firm levels. The discretionary accrual and real activities manipulation models are used to assess the audit quality at the engagement partner and public accounting firm levels. From 2013 to 2018, this study examined 506 firm-year observations for companies in the industrial sector listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange. Using multiple linear regressions and controlling for year and industry fixed effects, our study discovered that the client complexity handled by engagement partners has an association with the engagement partners’ audit quality declining using discretionary accruals. However, our study discovered no relationship between the number of clients at the engagement partner and audit firm levels, and client complexity at the audit firm level that influences audit quality. Thus, the findings of our study suggest to standard setters, capital market participants, and other stakeholders that audit quality at the engagement partner level remains a significant concern.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of tax planning and deferred tax expenses on earnings management, with a focus on the moderating effect of COVID-19. Using a sample of 72 companies in the materials and consumer staples sectors listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2018 to 2021, the study employs a quantitative approach with purposive sampling. The findings reveal that tax planning positively affects earnings management, indicating that companies engage in tax planning to reduce their tax burden by lowering reported profits. However, deferred tax expenses and COVID-19 do not significantly influence earnings management. Interestingly, COVID-19 weakens the relationship between tax planning and earnings management but does not affect the relationship between deferred tax expenses and earnings management. The study highlights several limitations, including issues with normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity tests, the use of only two independent variables, and the limited scope of company sectors and research periods. Future research should consider expanding the data set, adding more variables, and including a broader range of sectors and periods to achieve more comprehensive results.
