Abstract

Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menginvestigasi pengaruh karakteristik perusahaan dan tata kelola perusahaan terhadap perilaku manajemen laba. Selanjutnya, penelitian ini diperluas untuk menentukan model akrual diskresioner yang prediktif di Indonesia. Peneliti memanfaatkan perusahaan yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia selama tahun 2014 – 2018 sebagai objek penelitian. Sampel dalam penelitian diseleksi menggunakan metode purposive sampling method, sementara analisis data dilakukan melalui program statistika E-Views versi 10. Tiga model akrual diskresioner digunakan untuk mengukur perilaku manajemen laba di Indonesia. Penelitian ini mengasumsikan karakteristik perusahaan seperti kinerja keuangan, ukuran perusahaan, tingkat hutang, dan aktivitas penerbitan saham dan karakteristik tata kelola seperti ukuran dewan direksi dan ukuran auditor sebagai faktor yang mempengaruhi perilaku manajemen laba. Uji korelasi Spearman dilakukan untuk menentukan model akrual diskresioner yang prediktif. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa kinerja keuangan, ukuran perusahaan, dan aktivitas penerbitan laba mampu memperparah perilaku manajemen laba di Indonesia secara signifikan. Di sisi lain, ukuran auditor, tingkat hutang, dan ukuran dewan direksi dapat mengurangi perilaku manajemen laba namun hanya ukuran auditor yang signifikan. Penelitian juga menemukan bahwa model akrual diskresioner Jones, Dechow, dan Kothari prediktif di Indonesia. Penemuan – penemuan dalam penelitian ini menyediakan pandangan baru bagi investor bahwa valuasi perusahaan seharusnya tidak hanya ditekankan pada faktor keuangan namun juga faktor kualitatif. Selain itu, penegakkan mekanisme tata kelola dan pengawasan merupakan pendekatan yang penting dalam mengurangi perilaku manajemen laba. Originalitas dari penelitian ini terletak pada pemeriksaan kapabilitas tiga model akrual diskresioner dalam mengukur manajemen laba. ********************************************************************** This research is carried out to investigate the influence of firm characteristics and good governance characteristics to earnings management behavior.
