Abstract

Purpose: This research aims to analyze the effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosure and accounting conservatism on corporate tax avoidance, considering the role of company value as a moderating variable in this relationship. Methodology/approach: This research uses an explanatory quantitative approach, using panel data from manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2019–2023. Tax avoidance is measured using the Cash Effective Tax Rate (CETR). The level of ESG disclosure is measured using a content analysis index compiled from 33 Environmental, Social, and Governance indicators. Accounting conservatism is proxied by the Book-to-Market ratio, while company value is measured using the Price-to-Book Value (PBV) ratio. The analysis technique used is panel data regression with moderating variable testing. Findings: ESG disclosure has a negative, significant effect on corporate tax avoidance, whereas accounting conservatism does not. Firm value is found to strengthen the negative relationship between ESG disclosure and tax avoidance, indicating that firms with higher market values tend to show better tax compliance as sustainability transparency increases. However, company value does not moderate the relationship between accounting conservatism and tax avoidance, suggesting that accounting conservatism functions more as a technical reporting practice than as a strategy directly related to tax policy. Practical implications: This research provides practical implications for corporate management in efforts to enhance reputation and minimize tax risk through strengthening ESG disclosure and implementing accounting conservatism. Companies with high market value are expected to incorporate both aspects into their corporate governance strategy to improve tax compliance. Originality/value: This research contributes to the literature on market discipline and tax ethics by revealing the role of corporate values in enhancing the effectiveness of ESG disclosure in curbing tax avoidance, while also demonstrating the limitations of accounting conservatism in emerging markets.

Abstract

Purpose — This article aims to explore the implementation of knowledge management in a multinational telecommunications subsidiary to investigate the factors that influence performance and its impact. Design/methodology/approach — Adopting a qualitative research design, this study employs an instrumental case study approach. Data were generated through in-depth semi-structured interviews with individual taxpayers, corporate taxpayers, and tax officials, and triangulated with administrative records on tax filings and revenue before and after the Coretax rollout. The analysis is guided by an integrated behavioral framework drawing on the Technology Acceptance Model and the Theory of Planned Behavior. Findings — The results show a significant decline in tax compliance during the initial phase of Coretax implementation. While the system demonstrated high usability among corporate taxpayers and tax officials by improving reporting efficiency and integration, it simultaneously resulted in low ease of use and reduced behavioral control among individual taxpayers. Complex authentication procedures, an unintuitive interface, system instability, and limited transition assistance reduced user trust and delayed compliance behavior. These results suggest that the decline in compliance reflects behavioral and institutional inconsistencies, not technological failures. Practical implications — The study highlights the need for user-segmented and adaptive digital tax implementation strategies, emphasizing usability, behavioral readiness, digital literacy support, and institutional capacity building during transition periods Originality/value — This research contributes to digital tax administration literature by demonstrating that behavioral readiness and perceived control are more decisive for compliance outcomes than system sophistication, particularly in developing-country contexts.

Abstract

Purpose — This study investigates the impact of accounting conservatism on information asymmetry in non-financial companies, aiming to validate the reputation theory.  Design/methodology/approach— This paper employs a quantitative approach using Stata 14 to analyze 2,791 observations from non-financial companies. The research focuses on Indonesia, a country characterized by concentrated ownership, which historically has led to low information asymmetry. However, the case of certain state-owned enterprises that have suffered financial losses raises concerns about the role of accounting conservatism in reducing information asymmetry and enhancing company reputation, ultimately benefiting minority shareholders. Findings — The study finds that accounting conservatism significantly reduces information asymmetry. Practical implications— Accounting conservatism can serve as an effective mechanism to reduce information asymmetry and strengthen the company's reputation, thereby improving trust among minority shareholders. Originality/value — This research contributes to understanding information asymmetry among non-financial companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange. The study suggests that adopting accounting conservatism can help attract minority investors by addressing information asymmetry in concentrated ownership structures. Paper type — Research paper

Abstract

Purpose — This research aims to determine the mediating role of corporate sustainability performance (CSP) on the influence of corporate governance (CG) on corporate performance (FP). Design/methodology/approach — The sample data were selected according to the following criteria: the company was a non-financial company that continued to report sustainability reports using the 2016 GRI Standard from 2017 to 2022. The data was analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method. Findings — This study shows that only CG has a significant positive effect on FP. The influence of CG on CSP, the influence of CSP on FP, and CSP's mediating role were not significant. These results differ significantly from previous studies, but it is suspected that the COVID-19 pandemic causes data anomalies. Practical implications — According to the result, CG implementation will boost FP. Therefore, the company should consider expanding its CG practice to boost its FP. In addition, increasing CSP through boosting the sustainability report does not negatively affect FP. Therefore, companies are recommended to enhance their sustainability reporting practices to improve stakeholder engagement. Originality/value — This study examines a governance system that uses a two-tier board, as practiced in Indonesia. It is expected that his case will help substantiate the implementation of CG in two-tier board governance systems in countries where this may affect their companies' financial performance.

Abstract

Purpose — This study aims to examine the extent to which corporate governance influences the relationship between audit fees, institutional ownership, and tax avoidance. It seeks to determine whether corporate governance mechanisms act as deterrents or facilitators in tax avoidance. Design/methodology/approach — This study aims to examine the impact of audit fees and institutional ownership on tax avoidance with good corporate governance as a moderating variable in the mining sector of Indonesia. The main focus is to understand how the implementation of tax policies and internal supervision can reduce tax avoidance practices. This study aims to provide insights into the effectiveness of fiscal policies and tax transparency in publicly listed companies in Indonesia in 2020-2023. Finding —  This study uses a quantitative approach with multiple regression analysis. The data used are secondary data obtained from the annual reports and financial statements of mining sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2020–2023. Tax avoidance is measured using accounting-based methods, and good corporate governance will be tested as a moderating variable affecting the relationship between audit fees, institutional ownership, and tax avoidance. Practical Implication — This study can contribute to reducing tax avoidance practices, which, although legal, still harm government revenue. The findings of this study can serve as recommendations for company management and shareholders to be more compliant in fulfilling their tax obligations and reducing tax avoidance practices that impact the country. This study also provides insights to improve oversight related to tax avoidance practices in the context of fiscal policy. Originality/value — This study examines how audit fees and institutional ownership influence tax avoidance, with good corporate governance moderating the relationship, particularly in high-risk industries like mining in Indonesia.
