Several previous studies, there are gaps in experiment outcomes from one experimenter to another, so this study tries to re-examine the gaps or gaps found in several studies. This study is a replication study to re-examine several factors that influence income smoothing by using Corporate size as a moderating instrument variable. The addition of this modepercentagen instrument variable aims to increase the depth of analysis and provide a more nuanced understanding of the relationship between the dependent instrument variable and the independent instrument variable. Moderating instrument variables can strengthen the relationship between the two instrument variables. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the current percentage and DER percentage on income smoothing with corporate size as a moderating instrument variable in industry corporates listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2020-2022.

The outcomes of this study indicate that the current percentage and DERpercentage do not affect income smoothing. Corporate size as a moderating instrument variable cannot moderate the current percentage and DER percentage instrument variables on income smoothing.
