And price to book value has not significant to the income smoothing practices. Simultaneously, company size, growth and value have a significant effect of 0.000. Nagelker's R square value is 0.313; it means that the coefficient of determination is 0.313. This states that the independent variable explains the variation of the dependent variable by 31.3% while the remaining 68.7% is influenced by other factors that are not examined.]]>
