Abstract

Research aims: This study examines the influence of intellectual capital on tax audit quality at the Directorate General of Taxes and explores the potential moderating role of information technology in the relationship between intellectual capital and tax audit quality. Design/Methodology/Approach: Focusing on public human capital (PHC), public structural capital (PSC), and public relational capital (PRC), the study employs PLS-SEM analysis on primary data obtained from 35 Tax Auditors (FPP) in the DKI Jakarta region. Research findings:  The results show that PRC has a positive effect on tax audit quality, while PHC and PSC do not have a significant impact on tax audit quality. Furthermore, no moderating effect of information technology was found on the relationship between PHC, PSC, or PRC and tax audit quality. Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study findings highlight the importance of building strong relationships to enhance tax audit quality, while human and structural capital plays no significant role in this context. Practitioner/Policy implication: The study recommends integrating technology and optimizing business processes by the Directorate General of Taxes to achieve high-quality tax audits. Additionally, the findings can enrich policymakers' insights to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the policies implemented and foster further discussion on managing intellectual capital to achieve sustainable public sector goals in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of tax avoidance on the quality of financial reporting using leverage as a moderating variable. In this study, the quality of financial reporting, as the dependent variable, uses the Beneish M-Score, and tax avoidance, as the independent variable, uses the effective tax rate (ETR). The sample of this study uses manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2021-2023. Using purposive sampling, this study uses 19 companies with 57 observations. This study uses a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis for panel data. The results show that tax avoidance positively affects financial reporting quality, and leverage weakens the positive effect of tax avoidance on the quality of financial reporting. This study recommends that accounting standard setters create standards that can prevent the practice of manipulating financial statements.

Abstract

Research aims: This study aims to analyze the influence of Profitability, Leverage, Liquidity, and Capital Intensity on Tax Avoidance with Firm Size as a moderating variable. The object of this research is banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2016 to 2020. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study uses secondary data, and sampling is done using the purposive sampling method. From the entire set of companies, 34 companies were selected that met the criteria for testing. The collected data was then analyzed using regression techniques and moderated regression analysis (Islam et al., 2020), with the assistance of Eviews software for data processing. Research findings:  The results of the study show that profitability and liquidity have a significant influence on tax avoidance. Conversely, leverage and capital intensity do not have an influence on tax avoidance. Additionally, the results indicate that firm size can moderate the influence of profitability and leverage on tax avoidance. However, firm size cannot moderate the influence of liquidity and capital intensity. Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study provides an original contribution by examining the role of firm size as a moderating variable in the relationship between profitability, leverage, liquidity, capital intensity, and tax avoidance in the banking sector in Indonesia. Practitioner/Policy implication: The implications of this research are that it can be used by regulators and policymakers to understand the factors influencing tax avoidance in the banking sector. Banks can use these findings to optimize their financial strategies related to profitability and liquidity. Regulators can also consider firm size when designing tax policies for the banking sector

Abstract

Research aims: This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability, capital structure,      and free cash flow on company value, with dividend policy as an intervening variable in banking companies. Design/Methodology/Approach: The research uses secondary data obtained from banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2014-2020. A total of 45 companies constituted the population, and purposive sampling was used to select 19 companies that met the criteria for testing. Data analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Square (PLS) method with the SmartPLS version 3.2.8 software. Research findings: The results revealed that profitability has a significant positive effect on dividend policy, while capital structure has no effect on dividend policy. Free cash flow, on the other hand, shows a significant positive effect on dividend policy. Furthermore, profitability has a significant positive effect on company value, and capital structure also positively and significantly affects company value. However, free cash flow has no effect on company value, and dividend policy does not influence company value.   Theoretical contribution/Originality: This research contributes to the understanding of the dynamics between profitability, capital structure, free cash flow, dividend policy, and company value, particularly within the context of the banking sector. Practitioner/Policy implication: The findings provide insights for practitioners and policymakers in banking companies to better align profitability and dividend policy to enhance company value. Research limitation/Implication: The study is limited to banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2014-2020 and may not generalize to other sectors or time periods.

Abstract

Research aims: This study examines the effect of management control system (MCS) implementation consisting of three dimensions: input, output, and behavioural, on the performance of study programs in private Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Also, this study tests whether there is a moderating impact of gender. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study uses a questionnaire survey approach and statistical hypothesis testing. The population of this study is permanent lecturers at private HEIs in Indonesia who and are subject to the MCS policy. Meanwhile, the SEM-PLS technique was used to test the hypothesis. Research findings:  Involving 291 lecturers as samples, this study found that in overall data, output and behavioural controls had a positive effect on performance, while input controls did not. The results of moderation testing using a split sampling indicated that in the Male group only behavioural control had a positive influence on performance. Meanwhile, in the female group, behaviour and output control influence performance. In other words, gender moderates the relationship between output control and performance, which means that output control needs to be emphasized more in women. Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study presents a new discussion on how MCS policies aimed at improving the performance of HEIs need to pay attention to gender issues. Practitioner/Policy implication: In fact, women and men have different ways of working and levels of sensitivity in responding to certain information and policies. Therefore, in the case of implementing MCS in HEIs, slight differences in treatment regarding gender differences are needed to make MCS have an optimal impact on performance.

Abstract

Research aims: This research aims to evaluate cost control and pricing by applying the target costing concept as a method to improve the process of cost determination in a creative digital marketing agency company. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study uses document analysis and semi-structured face-to-face interview techniques. The interviews were conducted with the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Editor, Chief Business Officer, and Chief Operation Officer of the company. Research findings:  The findings indicate that the actual cost of sales incurred by the company has consistently exceeded the acceptable threshold. As a result, the gross profit margin target of sixty percent, which is set by the company, cannot be achieved. However, by applying the target costing concept, the company is able to analyze target costs for its projects so that cost control can be managed more effectively. Theoretical contribution/Originality: This research contributes to the development of cost management theory by demonstrating how the target costing method—commonly used in manufacturing industries—can be adapted and applied effectively within the service industry, specifically in the field of digital marketing agencies. Practitioner/Policy implication: The study presents four recommendations to enhance cost control and pricing: 1) Prepare a working paper for applying target costing to each project; 2) Develop standardized rate cards based on output variables for each service category; 3) Standardize the use of direct costs across all projects; and 4) Identify lower-cost alternative activities and improve the efficiency of value-adding processes.
