Abstract

This study examines the effect of firm characteristics—profitability, leverage, and firm size—along with political connections and ownership structure (institutional and managerial ownership) on tax avoidance among non-cyclical consumer companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2019 to 2023. Using a panel data approach with 45 firm-year observations and regression analysis via E-Views 12, the results reveal that profitability and leverage negatively influence tax avoidance. However, firm size, political connections, institutional ownership, and managerial ownership show no significant individual effect. Collectively, these factors have a statistically significant impact. The study contributes to the literature by highlighting the multidimensional nature of tax avoidance behavior and its link to both internal and external corporate governance factors.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of liquidity and capital structure on profitability at PT Siantar Top Tbk from 2013 to 2022. Using a quantitative approach and multiple regression analysis, liquidity is measured by the current ratio, capital structure by the debt-to-equity ratio, and profitability by the net profit margin. The findings show that liquidity does not have a significant partial effect on profitability, while capital structure has a significant negative impact. However, both variables simultaneously influence profitability significantly. The adjusted R² value of 86.9% indicates that these financial ratios strongly explain changes in profitability. This study highlights the importance of managing debt effectively while optimizing the use of liquid assets. The results provide practical insights for financial decision-making in the consumer goods sector.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of financial performance, debt level, and sales growth on tax avoidance in banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2019 to 2023. A quantitative approach was employed using purposive sampling to select 7 companies that met the criteria, resulting in 35 observations after removing outliers for normality. The data were analyzed using panel data regression with the Common Effect Model and processed using EViews 12. The findings show that financial performance has a significant negative effect on tax avoidance, while debt level and sales growth do not have significant effects. The adjusted R-squared value of 52.16% indicates that the independent variables explain more than half of the variation in tax avoidance. These results contribute to the understanding of tax avoidance behavior in the banking sector and offer insight for regulators in designing tax compliance policies.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of business risk, investment decisions, and good corporate governance on firm value. The research was conducted using secondary data derived from financial statements of food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2019 to 2023. The independent variables are business risk, investment decisions, managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and independent commissioners, while firm value serves as the dependent variable. Panel data regression is employed using EViews 12. The study finds that only investment decisions have a statistically significant and positive effect on firm value, aligning with signaling theory.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of the Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Total Asset Turnover (TATO) on the Net Profit Margin (NPM) of PT Akasha Wira International Tbk from 2014 to 2024. Using a quantitative descriptive approach, secondary data from the company’s audited annual reports were analyzed through descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, and hypothesis testing (t-test and F-test) with IBM SPSS 29.0. The findings reveal that CR, DER, and TATO individually have no significant effect on NPM. However, when tested simultaneously, the three variables have a significant influence on NPM. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.904 indicates that these variables explain 90.4% of the variation in NPM, while 9.6% is attributed to other factors not included in the model.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of profitability and valuation ratios, as measured by Net Profit Margin (NPM) and Price-to-Book Value (PBV), on the stock prices of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Motivated by inconsistent findings in prior research, this study employs purposive sampling based on 12 annual observations and applies multiple linear regression, along with classical assumption tests. Results show that NPM positively and significantly affects stock prices, while PBV has a positive but statistically insignificant effect at the 5% level. The adjusted R² of 0.730 indicates that 73% of stock price variation is explained by the two variables, with 27% influenced by other factors. Findings confirm the role of profitability as a strong predictor of stock prices in Indonesia’s capital market and provide practical implications for investors and corporate managers in improving firm market value.

Abstract

This study analyzes bankruptcy prediction for PT Bank Muamalat Indonesia Tbk during 2015–2022 using the Altman Z-Score and Springate models. As Indonesia’s first Islamic bank, PT Bank Muamalat has faced challenges such as capital difficulties that could threaten its financial stability. Using descriptive quantitative methods, this research measures bankruptcy potential through financial ratios. The Z-Score model categorizes the bank as generally healthy, though some years indicate potential bankruptcy, while the Springate model consistently shows a healthy condition. The findings suggest that PT Bank Muamalat Indonesia Tbk needs to strengthen its business strategies and improve financial management to maintain stable profitability. This analysis is expected to assist investors in making informed investment decisions and to support future research in the field. Furthermore, the study contributes to developing better financial strategies and provides valuable insights for stakeholders in understanding the bank’s financial health.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of information asymmetry and firm size on earnings management in Indonesian listed firms. Using panel data analysis, the research evaluates both individual and joint effects of these variables. Descriptive statistics indicate a moderate level of earnings management, with firms exhibiting both income-increasing and income-decreasing adjustments. The results of hypothesis testing reveal that information asymmetry alone does not significantly affect earnings management (p = 0.1764), while firm size has a significant negative effect (p = 0.0001), suggesting that larger firms engage in less opportunistic reporting. However, the F-test shows that information asymmetry and firm size jointly have a significant impact on earnings management (p = 0.036), explaining 34.72% of the variation in the dependent variable. These findings align with agency theory, which emphasizes managerial discretion under information imbalance, and signaling theory, which highlights the strategic use of earnings to communicate firm performance. The study underscores the importance of governance and monitoring mechanisms in mitigating earnings manipulation in Indonesian firms.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and empirically test the effects of transfer pricing, firm size, and inventory intensity on tax avoidance in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period from 2020 to 2024. This research employs a quantitative method using secondary data in the form of financial statements. The population in this study consists of 40 energy sector companies listed on the IDX from 2020 to 2024. The sampling technique employed is purposive sampling, involving 15 companies over 5 years, resulting in a total of 75 data samples. The analysis technique applied is panel data regression analysis, using Eviews 12 software. The results show that transfer pricing, firm size, and inventory intensity simultaneously have a significant effect on tax avoidance. However, partially, transfer pricing has no significant effect on tax avoidance, firm size has a significant effect on tax avoidance, and inventory intensity does not have a significant effect on tax avoidance.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of corporate governance mechanisms and capital intensity on tax avoidance in food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2019–2023. Corporate governance is represented by managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and independent commissioners, while capital intensity reflects investment in fixed assets. Using purposive sampling, 10 firms were selected, producing 35 panel data observations analyzed with the Fixed Effect Model (FEM). The results reveal that, partially, managerial ownership, institutional ownership, independent commissioners, and capital intensity have no significant effect on tax avoidance, but simultaneously these variables significantly influence tax avoidance, indicating that governance mechanisms and structural characteristics are more effective when considered collectively rather than individually. These findings are consistent with agency theory, which emphasizes the role of governance structures in reducing agency problems, and also support prior empirical studies in emerging markets. The study contributes by providing sector-specific evidence from the Indonesian food and beverage industry and offers practical insights for managers, investors, and regulators to strengthen governance frameworks, limit opportunistic tax practices, and ensure sustainable corporate compliance.
