Abstract

This study analyzes whether election as a political event affect the liquidity management and investment decisions of Indonesian listed firms. Using presidential election as an uncertainty shock over 2010-2016 time period, we find that firms are more likely to increase their liquid assets and delay investment one year prior the election year. The precautional measure of holding more cash is that firms allocate more cash prior the election year to maintain financial flexibility because rising funds rendered transaction costs. However, we further find that firms reduce their liquidity and increase their investment during the election year. These results suggest that elections create political uncertainty and induce higher risk of extraction. Since cash, as well as other liquid assets, are the easiest resource to be grabbed by the politicians, firms have more incentives to hold less cash and therefore structure their liquid assets into hard assets to prevent such a risk.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pemilihan presiden sebagai salah satu event politik yang akan mempengaruhi manajemen likuiditas dan keputusan investasi perusahaan publik di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan event pemilihan presiden sebagai uncertainty shock dengan periode sampel 2010-2016, kita menemukan bahwa perusahaan akan cenderung meningkatkan likuiditasnya dan menunda keputusan investasi setahun sebelum pemilihan presiden. Keputusan meningkatkan kas ini adalah bentuk strategi perusahaan untuk menjaga likuiditasnya dikarenakan adanya ketidakpastian di masa yang akan datang terkait dengan hasil dari pemilihan presiden. External financing di masa ketidakpastian akan menimbulkan kos transaksi yang lebih tinggi. Tetapi, bukti selanjutnya menunjukkan bahwa perusahaan akan mengurangi likuiditasnya dan meningkatkan investasi di tahun pemilihan presiden. Bukti empiris ini menunjukkan bahwa pemilihan presiden akan meningkatkan risiko political extraction. Dikarenakan kas, dan juga aset likuid lainnya, adalah bentuk sumberdaya yang mudah untuk dimanfaatkan oleh politisi, perusahaan akan memiliki motif yang lebih kuat untuk mengurangi aset likuidnya dan menggunakannya untuk investasi di aset fisik untuk menghindari risiko political extraction.

Abstract

This research seeks to analyze the impact of audit committee features on the financial performance of healthcare entities listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2019 to 2023. The analyzed parameters include audit committee size, independence of the audit committee, skill of the audit committee, and frequency of audit committee meetings. Return on Assets (ROA) serves as a critical performance metric, with business size and the COVID-19 criteria accounted for. This study utilizes a quantitative approach using panel data regression analysis on a sample chosen by purposive sampling methods. This research is driven by notable variations in Return on Assets (ROA) throughout the healthcare industry and a financial reporting controversy concerning PT Indofarma Tbk. The findings indicate a substantial and noteworthy impact of audit committee size and independence on financial performance. In contrast, the experience of the audit committee and the frequency of meetings have no substantial influence. These results highlight the need of harmonizing structural characteristics and efficient supervision within the audit committee for good corporate governance. The research provides actionable insights for regulators and corporate management in enhancing the functions of audit committees.

Abstract

Variations in corporate financial characteristics may correspond to differences in the extent of reporting discretion exercised by managers. This research investigates whether leverage, asset growth, capital intensity, operating cash flow ratio, profitability, and firm size help explain discretionary accrual activity among 72 firms from Indonesia's Basic Materials and Industrial sectors during 2019–2024. Reporting discretion is measured through the absolute value of discretionary accruals derived from the Modified Jones approach. Panel-data estimation is conducted following formal specification testing, which indicates that the Random Effects model is the most appropriate baseline estimator. The results show that firms experiencing stronger asset expansion and higher operating cash flow ratios tend to display greater discretionary accrual activity. In contrast, larger firms and those with greater concentrations of fixed assets are associated with lower reporting discretion in the baseline model, although these relationships become less robust under alternative specifications. Debt intensity and profitability do not appear to explain variation in discretionary accrual behavior. Additional robustness estimation using a Fixed Effects specification with Driscoll–Kraay standard errors produces a broadly similar pattern of results. Overall, operational and growth-related conditions are more strongly associated with managerial reporting discretion than financing structure within the sampled firms.
