Data were analyzed by Moderate Regression Analysis (MRA). The testing results show that free cash flow has a significant negative impact on earnings management, leverage has no impact on earnings management, good corporate governance can mitigate free cash flow, and lastly good corporate governance has a negative impact on earnings management. It shows that the effects of leverage cannot be mitigated.
