The research results were processed using panel data regression, the best model regression was random effect model. One independent variable, earnings management, was found not to significantly affect profitability. However, the study found that the level of tax avoidance has a positive and significant impact on company profitability. The size of the board of commissioners' independence as a moderating variable did not strengthen or weaken the independent variables simultaneously or partially against company profitability, but independence board of commissioners could significantly affect on profitability as independent variables. This is a quantitative research with hypothesis testing. The implications of this study state that there is a high tax aggressiveness in Indonesia due to the actions of multinational companies in global transactions, thus recommending that the government further evaluate current international tax policies.
