Indra Pramana Raharja — 2024-09-27

The grand theory in this research was built by combining Signal Theory, Stakeholder Theory, and Agency Theory as a conceptual basis for hypothesis development. Signal Theory highlights how information companies convey, such as implementing Good Corporate Governance (GCG), can influence investor confidence and investment decisions. This study aims to analyze the impact of CSR and GCG on company value (Tobin's Q), mediated by financial performance, with a focus on Islamic Social Responsibility (ISR), Independent Board of Commissioners (IBC), and Institutional Ownership (IO). They are using a quantitative method. The data is derived from the annual financial reports of 39 banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2017 to 2021. The purposive sampling technique was chosen to ensure that the sample used was relevant and could provide valid data to test the relationship between the variables studied and answer the research hypothesis comprehensively. Secondary data was collected from www.idx.co.id, and path analysis was employed as the analytical method. The findings reveal that CSR, ISR, IBC, and IO positively and directly influence company value (Tobin's Q). These results underscore the critical role of CSR and GCG in shaping a company's financial performance and market value.

AUDIT DELAY FACTORS OF INDONESIAN FIRMS: A BINARY LOGIT AND PANEL EGLS ANALYSIS

Ade Ariani — 2024-09-27

This study intends to determine the influence of audit opinion and firm size on audit delays with audit rotation as a mediating variable. We examined 30 firms listed in IDX Circular Letter 2020-2022 using purposive selection and secondary data from financial reports. Despite deadline extensions, these companies consistently needed to submit timely reports. The findings reveal that an unfavorable audit opinion negatively affects the rotation process, whereas a larger firm size has a positive effect. Additionally, audit opinions and rotation negatively affect audit delays, whereas company size has a positive influence. The study also shows that audit rotation partially mediates the association between audit opinion and audit delay and between firm size and audit delay. The research team acknowledges that prevailing economic conditions during data collection may affect the applicability of the results to other periods. This study implies that auditors and accountants identify the primary causes of audit delays, such as inadequate documentation, transaction complexity, and communication issues. Implementing best practices can improve financial reporting quality, reduce errors, and enhance auditor timeliness. Auditors and accountants are advised to adopt these practices to minimize audit delays.

DOES SUSTAINABILITY DISCLOSURE HAVE A MODERATING ROLE IN EXAMINING FIRM VALUE IN BANKING INDUSTRY?

Diah Oktavia Hapsari — 2024-09-27

This study seeks to experimentally assess the impact of financial performance on the firm value of the banking subsector and examine sustainability disclosure as a moderating variable. The study focused on banking subsector companies listed on the IDX in 2020-2022. Multiple linear regression was used to test cross-sectional data processed with Eviews 12. The test results demonstrate that profitability has a considerable beneficial impact on firm value. Meanwhile, leverage minimizes firm value because the primary banking business process involves consumer loans and receivables. Therefore, investors pay little attention to company debt. Sustainability disclosure cannot balance the relationship between financial success and firm value. The sustainability disclosures need to meet investors' expectations. Stakeholders may have differing perspectives on the relevance and influence of sustainability data on profitability and firm value.

DELAY RED FLAG CONSTRUCTION COMPANY: CONTROL ANALYSIS WITH FOUR LEVER OF CONTROL

Brigitta Notoatmodjo — 2024-09-27

Despite extensive research on construction delays, this persistent issue continues to challenge the global construction industry. This case study aims to enhance the theoretical and practical understanding of management control systems (MCS) in construction firms by identifying the primary causes of project delays and examining the MCS components involved. A qualitative case study was conducted at a national private construction company (Jakons) to identify delay factors and propose solutions by linking them to MCS. The study focused on two Jakons projects that experienced delays, with primary data collected through interviews with five key informants directly engaged in MCS for the projects. Analysis of the interviews revealed common delay causes related to the project owner, consultants, labor, and materials. These causes were then connected to MCS practices and assessed using the four Levers of Control (LoC) framework, including Belief, Boundary, Diagnostic, and Interactive control systems. The study identified areas for improvement in MCS related to communication management, coordination, competence, and risk management that impact schedule delays. These findings provide valuable guidance for construction practitioners in planning and managing projects and offer insights to reassess MCS strategies to mitigate delays and achieve timely project completion.

MAPPING WHISTLEBLOWING THROUGH THE ROLE OF WHISTLEBLOWERS: A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Raisha Jihad Denia Pinasty — 2024-09-27

This study explores whistleblowing's role in addressing fraud and corruption in Indonesia. Using bibliometric analysis, we examined publication trends, document types, subject areas, influential authors, and critical topics in whistleblowing research from 2014 to 2023. Data were collected from the Scopus database, analyzed with the Publish or Perish application, and visualized using a VOS viewer. The results show that articles dominate the field, making up 80.25% of total citations. The findings have significant implications for policymakers, practitioners, and academics. It is a beneficial overview of whistleblowing research, but it only needs to be better and measured based on these findings. These insights do not offer actionable guidelines or strategies but work as, at most, a compass map of existing research trends and areas of interest in whistleblowing discussions. However, the lessons could form a valuable database for anyone to understand the current status of the research ecosystem. However, more than insights alone need to be directly translated into practical designs or applications like building up a system for whistleblowing and anti-fraud, et cetera, which would require further (more applied) studies.

DOES A REDUCTION IN TAX RATES INFLUENCE TAX AGGRESSIVENESS? AN ANALYSIS WITH ADDITIONAL FACTORS

Fitri Ilma Wahyuni — 2024-09-27

This study investigates the effect of reduction tax rates in Indonesia and other factors that may impact tax aggressiveness. This study employs multiple linear regression analysis, using E-Views 12 as analytical software. A sample of fourteen real estate and property companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for 2017 to 2023 was identified through purposive sampling. This study relies on secondary data derived from the company's financial statements. The results showed that the reduction in tax rates and the presence of independent commissioners did not significantly affect tax aggressiveness. In contrast, institutional ownership and profitability factors positively correlate with tax aggressiveness, while leverage shows a negative correlation. It is expected that the results of this study will contribute to the development of taxation policies for companies in Indonesia, aiming to reduce aggressive taxation practices and assist companies in their tax-related decision-making framework.
