The data analysis method uses multiple regression testing. The results showed that tax aggressiveness, institutional ownership and leverage have an effect on earnings management. While director size, director independent, audit quality, managerial ownership, and firm size statistically do not influence on earnings management. The tax aggressiveness and leverage have a positive and significant effect on earnings management. Tax aggressiveness indicates that companies with low tax rates have an indication of high tax aggressiveness and this is possible because of the earnings management. Meanwhile, the leverage shows that companies with debt funding sources that are larger than assets, are more likely to practice earnings management. The institutional ownership has negative and significant effect on earnings management. The higher the institutional ownership the more stringent the supervision of the management in making earnings management.

Celem publikacji było zaprezentowanie w artykule dowodów empirycznych na temat wpływu agresywności podatkowej, kontroli jakości, własności kierowniczej, własności instytucjonalnej, wielkości firmy i dźwigni finansowej na zarządzanie zyskami. Badana populacja to firmy niefinansowe notowane na giełdzie w Indonezji podczas (IDX) 2013-2017. Próbki zostały pobrane metodą celowego pobierania próbek, w której 132 firmy niefinansowe wymienione w IDX spełniają wymogi określone w tych kryteriach, a otrzymane 660 danych można pobrać jako próbkę. Metoda analizy danych wykorzystuje testy wielokrotnej regresji. Wyniki pokazały, że agresywność podatkowa, własność instytucjonalna i dźwignia mają wpływ na zarządzanie zyskami. Podczas gdy wielkość dyrektora, niezależność dyrektora, jakość audytu, własność kierownicza i wielkość firmy statystycznie nie wpływają na zarządzanie zarobkami. Agresywność podatkowa i dźwignia mają pozytywny i znaczący wpływ na zarządzanie zyskami. Agresywność podatkowa wskazuje, że firmy o niskich stawkach podatkowych wykazują wysoką agresywność podatkową, co jest możliwe dzięki zarządzaniu zyskami. Tymczasem dźwignia pokazuje, że firmy ze źródłami finansowania dłużnego większymi niż aktywa częściej stosują zarządzanie zyskami. Własność instytucjonalna ma negatywny i znaczący wpływ na zarządzanie zarobkami. Im wyższa własność instytucjonalna, tym bardziej rygorystyczny jest nadzór kierownictwa w zakresie zarządzania dochodami.
