Abstract

Purpose : This study investigates the effect of corporate social responsibility, intellectual capital disclosure, and risk disclosure on the cost of capital and the roles of earnings management in moderating these effects. Method : This study employs secondary data from annual reports and financial statements of 79 manufacturing companies listed on Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2016 to 2020. Using purposive sampling, the sample obtained in this study is 395 observations. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression for panel data. Findings : This study finds that corporate social responsibility is negatively associated with cost of capital. Other than that, intellectual capital disclosure and risk disclosure are not associated with cost of capital. Moreover, earnings management failed to moderate the association between corporate social responsibility and the cost of capital. This study also found that earnings management strengthens the negative impact of intellectual capital disclosure on the cost of capital. In contrast, earnings management weakens the negative effect of risk disclosure on the cost of capital Novelty : This study places the moderating role of earnings management on testing the three non-financial disclosures on the cost of capital so that this study can complement the development of financial accounting research related to non-financial information. Keywords : Sustainability Disclosure; Intellectual Capital Disclosure; Risk Disclosure; Earnings Quality; Cost of Capital
