Abstract

This study explores the intricate relationship between corporate governance mechanisms—specifically Board Directors, Independent Commissioners, and the Audit Committee—and Accounting Conservatism, focusing on the moderating effects of Firm Size. The findings reveal that Board Directors have a statistically significant impact on Accounting Conservatism, primarily through their ability to provide oversight and challenge aggressive financial practices. However, the influence of Board Directors is moderated by Firm Size, as larger organizations often exhibit complexities that dilute their effectiveness. Similarly, the study underscores the pivotal role of Independent Commissioners in promoting conservative accounting practices. However, their impact is not amplified by Firm Size. The pressures faced by larger firms can lead to more aggressive financial reporting, thereby limiting the effectiveness of Independent Commissioners. Additionally, the Audit Committee is identified as a crucial governance mechanism in fostering Accounting Conservatism, but its effectiveness is also diminished in larger firms due to complex organizational structures. Overall, the research underscores the critical need for governance frameworks to be adaptive and tailored to the unique challenges posed by Firm Size. By recognizing and addressing these complexities, organizations can enhance the integrity and transparency of their financial reporting, thereby fostering trust among stakeholders and contributing to corporate accountability.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of gross profit, operating profit, and net profit on predicting future cash flows, with depreciation and amortization (DA) as moderating variables. The data used in this research is secondary data from financial reports of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2019 to 2023. The research applies panel data regression analysis, with Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), Fixed Effects, and Random Effects models to evaluate the impact of profitability measures on future cash flows. The results show that gross profit and operating profit have significant negative effects on future cash flows, while net profit has a significant positive effect. Furthermore, the introduction of DA as a moderating variable reveals that it significantly influences the relationship between gross profit and future cash flows, but does not significantly affect the relationship between net profit and cash flows. These findings suggest that non-cash expenses like depreciation and amortization should be considered when forecasting future financial performance.

Abstract

Earnings management remains a major concern in the banking industry because it may reduce the credibility and reliability of financial reporting. At the same time, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has increasingly been recognized as an important governance mechanism that enhances corporate transparency, accountability, and stakeholder trust. However, previous studies have reported inconsistent findings regarding the role of firm size in the relationship between CSR and earnings management. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effect of CSR on earnings management and investigate whether firm size acts as a mediating variable in Indonesian banking companies. This research employed a quantitative explanatory approach using panel data from 22 banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period, resulting in 66 observations. Data were analyzed using panel data regression with the Fixed Effect Model and mediation analysis through the Sobel test using EViews 12. The findings indicate that CSR has a significant negative effect on earnings management and a significant positive effect on firm size. Furthermore, firm size partially mediates the relationship between CSR and earnings management, indicating that CSR reduces earnings management both directly and indirectly through organizational scale. These findings provide theoretical support for stakeholder and legitimacy theories and offer practical insights for managers and regulators in strengthening CSR implementation to improve financial reporting quality and corporate transparency.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between green practices and corporate tax avoidance, focusing on green accounting, environmental performance, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) among 19 Indonesian publicly listed companies from 2021 to 2024. The research aims to examine whether environmentally responsible strategies influence firms’ tax behavior and how sustainability practices mediate this relationship. A quantitative approach was employed, collecting data from corporate financial statements, ESG reports, and sustainability disclosures. The analysis included descriptive statistics, correlation tests, and pooled ordinary least squares regression to explore the effects of green accounting, environmental performance, and CSR on the effective tax rate (ETR) as a proxy for tax avoidance. Results indicate that green accounting is positively associated with higher ETR, suggesting reduced tax avoidance, while CSR negatively impacts ETR, implying that sustainability initiatives can be strategically used to mask aggressive tax planning. Environmental performance alone does not significantly affect tax behavior. These findings highlight the importance of transparency through green accounting to promote ethical tax practices, while cautioning that CSR may serve as a reputational tool rather than a mechanism for reducing tax avoidance. The study contributes to theoretical understanding in sustainability and corporate governance and offers practical insights for policymakers and corporate managers to align environmental and fiscal responsibilities.
