This study aims to analyze the effect of capital structure, asset growth, and firm size on firm value in plastic and packaging sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2020–2024 period. Firm value is proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV), capital structure is measured using the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), asset growth is measured by the asset growth ratio, and firm size is measured using the natural logarithm of total assets. This research employed an explanatory quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from financial statements, annual reports, and stock price data. The sample consisted of 11 companies observed over five years, resulting in 55 panel data observations. Data were analyzed using panel data regression through the Common Effect Model, Fixed Effect Model, and Random Effect Model, with model selection based on the Chow, Hausman, and Lagrange Multiplier tests. The results indicate that capital structure, asset growth, and firm size have no significant effect on firm value, either partially or simultaneously. These findings suggest that firm value in the plastic and packaging sub-sector is not sufficiently explained by financing structure, asset expansion, or company size. Investors are more likely to consider other factors, such as profitability, operational efficiency, cash flow, sales growth, raw material risk, and sustainability prospects. Therefore, companies should improve financial performance, asset efficiency, cost control, and sustainable innovation to enhance firm value.

This study aims to assess the financial performance of 11 non-financial companies that conducted acquisitions in 2025 and are listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Using a quantitative descriptive-comparative approach with a case study design, six financial ratios were analyzed: Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Total Asset Turnover (TATO), Return on Assets (ROA), and Return on Equity (ROE). Data were obtained from consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024 (pre-acquisition) and December 31, 2025 (post-acquisition). The results show that the impact of acquisitions varies across companies. No consistent or significant differences were found in the CR, DAR, DER, ROA, or ROE ratios between the two periods. Meanwhile, the TATO ratio tended to decrease after the acquisition, indicating that the newly consolidated assets have not yet operated optimally. These findings confirm that the short-term financial impact of an acquisition is heavily influenced by the transaction’s funding structure, the size of the acquired entity, and the industry sector. This study contributes to the financial accounting literature on corporate acquisition strategies in the Indonesian capital market.

This study aims to analyze the financial performance of the Obor Mas Kupang Savings and Loan Cooperative using financial ratio analysis, including liquidity, solvency, profitability, and activity ratios during the 2022–2024 period. The research method used is descriptive quantitative, with financial ratio analysis consisting of the Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Asset Ratio  (DAR), Debt to Equity Ratio  (DER), Return on Asset s (ROA), Return on Equity  (ROE), and Total Asset Turnover. The data used are the cooperative’s financial statements, including the balance sheet and the Statement of Remaining Operating Results (SHU). The results show that from a liquidity perspective, the Current Ratio decreased from a very unhealthy category in 2022 and 2023 to a fairly healthy category in 2024, indicating an improvement in managing short-term liabilities. From a solvency perspective, the Debt to Asset Ratio  remained in the very unhealthy category throughout the study period, as total liabilities exceeded total assets, while the Debt to Equity Ratio  showed improvement from less healthy to fairly healthy. From a profitability perspective, both Return on Asset s and Return on Equity  indicate low and unstable performance, falling into unhealthy to very unhealthy categories. From an activity perspective, Total Asset Turnover shows fluctuating performance, experiencing a decline and then improvement, but remaining unstable.

Dividend policy is one of the key indicators used by investors to assess the stability and financial performance of banking companies. This study aims to analyze the effect of financial performance on the Dividend Payout Ratio in conventional banks in Indonesia during the 2021–2024 period. Financial performance is proxied by liquidity, Leverage, and profitability. This research employs a quantitative approach with an associative research design. The population consists of 43 conventional commercial banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange up to 2024. The sampling technique uses purposive sampling, resulting in 24 conventional banks with a total of 96 panel data observations. The data used are secondary data obtained from the companies’ annual financial statements and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results show that liquidity, proxied by Loan to Deposit Ratio (LDR), has a positive and significant effect on the Dividend Payout Ratio; Leverage, proxied by Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), has a negative and significant effect on the Dividend Payout Ratio; and profitability, proxied by Return on Assets (ROA), has a positive and significant effect on the Dividend Payout Ratio. Furthermore, liquidity, Leverage, and profitability simultaneously have a significant effect on the Dividend Payout Ratio in conventional banks in Indonesia. This study indicates that the company’s financial performance is a key factor in determining dividend policy in the banking sector.

This study examines the effect of transfer pricing, thin capitalization, and intangible assets on tax avoidance among manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2022-2024. Using a purposive sampling method, 90 firms were selected, yielding 262 firm-year observations after removing 8 outliers from an initial pool of 270. Tax avoidance is proxied by the Cash Effective Tax Rate (CETR); transfer pricing by the Related Party Transaction ratio (RPT); thin capitalization by the Debt-to-Equity Ratio (DER); and intangible assets by the ratio of intangible assets to total assets. The results indicate that transfer pricing has a significant negative effect on tax avoidance, thin capitalization has a significant negative effect on tax avoidance, and intangible assets do not significantly affect tax avoidance. The model is jointly significant (F = 25.422; p < .001) with an Adjusted R² of 21.92%, indicating that 21.92% of the variation in tax avoidance is explained by the three independent variables. These findings carry important implications for tax authorities seeking to strengthen oversight of related-party transactions and the capital structures of multinational enterprises.

This study aims to examine the effect of debt policy and transfer pricing on tax avoidance, with audit quality as a moderating variable. The object of this study is non-banking companies included in the LQ45 index listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2021-2024, with a total sample of 117 firm-year observations. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression and subgroup analysis (and chow test), by comparing the regression results between companies audited by Big Four and non-Big Four audit firms. The results indicate that debt policy has a positive and significant effect on tax avoidance, while transfer pricing does not have a significant effect on tax avoidance. Audit quality is proven to moderate the relationship between debt policy and tax avoidance by weakening the effect. However, audit quality does not moderate the relationship between transfer pricing and tax avoidance. These findings suggest that corporate financing decisions through debt remain an important mechanism in tax planning practices, while audit quality plays a crucial role as an external monitoring mechanism in limiting aggressive tax avoidance behavior.

This study examines the effect of capital structure, dividend policy, and firm size on firm value at PT Adhi Karya (Persero) Tbk during the period 2014–2024. The company’s firm value has shown fluctuations and a declining trend despite an increase in total assets, indicating a mismatch between asset growth and market perception. This study aims to analyze the influence of internal financial factors on firm value, both partially and simultaneously. A quantitative approach is employed using secondary data obtained from the company’s annual financial statements. Capital structure is measured using the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), dividend policy using the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR), firm size using the natural logarithm of total assets, and firm value using Tobin’s Q. Data are analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS, supported by classical assumption tests, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination (R²). The results show that partially, capital structure and dividend policy do not have a significant effect on firm value, while firm size has a significant effect. Simultaneously, all independent variables have a significant effect on firm value. The findings indicate that firm size plays a dominant role, while other factors may also influence firm value beyond the model.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of profitability and cost of debt on tax avoidance in wholesale trading companies from 2018 to 2021. The population in this study was 53 companies spanning a four-year period. The sample size used in this study was 49 from a population of 212. The sampling technique used was non-random sampling, with criteria being determined for sample selection. Testing was conducted using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, outlier tests, and multiple linear regression. The results showed that profitability and cost of debt had a significant positive effect on tax avoidance, accounting for 19.3% of the total, with the remainder coming from other variables. Partially, profitability had a significant negative effect on tax avoidance, meaning that an increase in profitability would decrease tax avoidance. Meanwhile, the cost of debt had an insignificant negative effect on tax avoidance, meaning that the higher the cost of debt, the higher the tax avoidance

Investment decisions in pharmaceutical manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) are influenced by fundamental analysis and stock price fluctuations. Stock prices reflect market perceptions shaped by profitability, liquidity, and capital structure. This study examines the effects of Return on Assets (ROA), Current Ratio (CR), and Debt-to-Equity Ratio (DER) on stock prices, both partially and simultaneously. Using a quantitative approach, the study analyzes secondary data from audited financial statements and stock prices of 12 pharmaceutical companies during 2022–2024, totaling 36 observations. Panel data regression with EViews 12 is applied. Results show that ROA and DER have positive and significant effects on stock prices, while CR has a negative but insignificant effect. Simultaneously, all three variables significantly influence stock prices, with an adjusted R² of 73%, indicating strong explanatory power. Profitability (ROA) is the most influential factor, followed by capital structure (DER), while liquidity (CR) shows no significant impact.

 This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of Total Asset Turnover (TATO), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Net Profit Margin (NPM) in predicting stock return fluctuations. The study focuses on retail sector issuers listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) between 2021 and 2024. Through the application of panel data regression analysis, the study determined that the Common Effects Model (CEM) is the most appropriate estimation method. This decision was made based on a series of tests including the Chow Test and the Lagrange Multiplier. Although classical assumption testing showed symptoms of heteroscedasticity, this problem was addressed using the EGLS (cross-sector weighting) Panel method to ensure the validity of the estimates. Based on partial testing, it is found that TATO and NPM variables have a positive and significant contribution to stock returns, while DER is found to have no significant effect. Collectively, all independent variables had a significant effect, with the Adjusted R-Square value reaching 27.80%. This indicates that for investors in the retail sector, profitability and operational efficiency are important indicators in making investment decisions.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) on Return on Assets (ROA) at PT Sumber Alfaria Trijaya Tbk during the period 2015–2025. This research uses a quantitative approach with an associative method to examine the relationship between the independent and dependent variables. The data used are secondary data obtained from the company’s quarterly financial statements over the research period, with a total sample of 44 observations selected using a saturated sampling technique. The data analysis methods applied in this study include classical assumption tests to ensure the feasibility of the regression model, simple linear regression analysis to determine the direction and magnitude of the relationship between variables, t-test to examine the significance of the effect, and the coefficient of determination (R²) to measure the extent to which the independent variable explains the dependent variable. The results of the study show that the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) has a negative and significant effect on Return on Assets (ROA). This is evidenced by a significance value of 0.000, which is lower than 0.05, and a t-statistic value of -8.469. The regression equation indicates that an increase in DER leads to a decrease in ROA. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.631 shows that DER explains 63.1% of the variation in ROA, while the remaining 36.9% is influenced by other variables outside the model

Food and beverage companies must maintain a robust capital structure to compete effectively amidst the intense pressures of globalization and achieve their strategic objectives. This study aims to examine the impact of profitability, asset structure, company size, and solvency on the capital structure of food and beverage firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and included in the LQ45 index. This study uses an explanatory method with purposive sampling technique, where samples are determined based on companies that have completed financial reports during the research period and are indexed in LQ45. Data analysis was performed using t-tests and F-tests. The results show that profitability (ROA), asset structure, and company size (Ln Total Assets) do not have a significant partial effect on capital structure (DER), meaning that these three factors do not directly influence companies' decisions on the use of debt for financing. However, solvency (DAR) was found to have a significant effect on capital structure, indicating that a company's ability to meet its long-term obligations plays an important role in determining the level of debt used for operational financing. Simultaneously, the four independent variables had a significant effect on capital structure, meaning that all variables together contributed to influencing food and beverage companies' decisions in determining their financing strategies.

Dividend payment is an important financial decision that reflects a company’s performance and prospects from the perspective of investors. However, companies included in the LQ45 index still experience fluctuations in dividend payment policies from year to year. This study aims to analyze the effect of leverage, firm size, profitability, and liquidity on dividend payments of companies listed in the LQ45 index on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2023–2024 period. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from published financial statements. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling method, resulting in 33 companies with a total of 60 observations. Data analysis was conducted using panel data regression with the assistance of SPSS software. Leverage is measured by the Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), firm size by the natural logarithm of total assets (LnTA), profitability by Return on Assets (ROA), liquidity by the Current Ratio (CR), and dividend payment by the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR). The results show that leverage, firm size, profitability, and liquidity simultaneously have a significant effect on dividend payments. Partially, firm size and profitability have a positive and significant effect on dividend payments, while leverage and liquidity do not have a significant effect. These findings indicate that companies with larger firm size and higher profitability tend to have a greater ability to distribute dividends to investors.

This research analyzed the influence of liquidity, leverage, profitability, sales growth, and firm size on cash holdings. The research is quantitative, using secondary data from annual financial reports of primary consumer industries listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2022 to 2024. Liquidity is measured by the Current Ratio, which is calculated as current assets divided by current liabilities. Leverage, proxied by the Debt-to-Equity Ratio, is measured by total liabilities divided by total equity. Profitability, proxied by Net Profit Margin, is calculated using the formula operating profit divided by sales. Sales Growth is measured as the current total sales minus the previous total sales, divided by the previous total sales, expressed as a %. Firm Size is proxied by the natural logarithm of total assets. Meanwhile, Cash Holding is measured by cash and cash equivalents divided by total assets. This research was conducted using a sample of 174 data points from 58 companies; outliers were removed, resulting in 159 data points from 53 companies. The sampling was done using purposive sampling. The research results indicate that liquidity has a positive effect on cash holding. Leverage has a negative effect on cash holding. Profitability has a positive effect on cash holding. Sales growth has a positive effect on cash holdings. Firm size has a positive effect on cash holding.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of liquidity, asset efficiency, and capital structure on profitability in pharmaceutical manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, using Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) as an investment-based profitability indicator. This research employs secondary data from the annual financial statements of pharmaceutical manufacturing companies over a specific period, with multiple linear regression analysis and robust models to ensure model feasibility. The results indicate that liquidity has no effect on profitability. Asset efficiency has a significant negative effect, reflecting the characteristics of the pharmaceutical industry with its high asset intensity. Capital structure has a significant positive effect on profitability, suggesting that measured use of debt can enhance the company’s return on investment. These findings provide theoretical contributions by enriching the literature on investment-based profitability determinants and practical implications for corporate management, investors, and stakeholders in understanding internal factors that influence the financial performance of pharmaceutical companies in Indonesia.

Investors consider firm value as an indicator of a company’s success and its future prospects. Several financial variables, such as firm size and capital structure, are believed to influence firm value in the banking industry. Financial institutions with large total assets are often perceived as more stable and less vulnerable to risk, thereby increasing investor confidence. In addition, capital structure, commonly measured by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), plays an important role in evaluating a company’s financial performance and its impact on firm value. This study aims to examine the effect of firm size and capital structure on firm value in banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2020–2024. The research employs a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis. Secondary data were obtained from financial statements and stock price information published on the official IDX website. The sample consists of 12 BUKU 2 banking companies selected through purposive sampling, with an observation period of five years. Firm size is measured using the natural logarithm of total assets (Ln Total Assets), capital structure is proxied by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and firm value is measured using Price to Book Value (PBV). The results indicate that, simultaneously, firm size and capital structure have a significant effect on firm value.

Tax is a major source of government revenue; however, tax avoidance remains a significant issue, particularly in the property and real estate sector, which is characterized by high growth and complex financial structures. This study examines the effects of leverage, profitability, and sales growth on tax avoidance, with firm size as a moderating variable. The study employs a quantitative approach, using secondary data from the annual financial statements of property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2020–2024 period. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, and the data were analyzed using panel data regression techniques. Tax avoidance is proxied by the Cash Effective Tax Rate, leverage is measured by the Debt-to-Equity Ratio, profitability is measured by Return on Assets, sales growth is calculated as the annual change in sales, and firm size is measured using the natural logarithm of total assets. The results indicate that leverage and profitability significantly affect tax avoidance, whereas sales growth does not. Firm size is found to moderate the relationship between leverage and tax avoidance as well as between profitability and tax avoidance, but it does not moderate the relationship between sales growth and tax avoidance. The novelty of this study lies in the inclusion of sales growth as an independent variable and the positioning of firm size as a moderating variable within the property and real estate sector during the post-pandemic period. These findings provide practical implications for corporate tax management strategies and offer insights for regulators in strengthening tax supervision based on firm characteristics.

This study aims to analyze the financial performance of PT Aviasi Pariwisata Indonesia (Persero), commercially known as Injourney the state-owned enterprise (BUMN) holding company for the aviation and tourism sectors during the 2021-2024 period. Performance is measured using liquidity ratios (Current Ratio, Cash Ratio), solvency ratios (Debt to Asset Ratio, Debt to Equity Ratio), activity ratios (Total Asset Turnover), and profitability ratios (Net Profit Margin, Return on Equity) compared against industry standards. This research employs a descriptive quantitative approach. The data utilized is secondary data sourced from the published financial statements of PT Aviasi Pariwisata Indonesia (Persero). The results indicate varied liquidity performance, with an average Current Ratio of 97.82% (below the 200% benchmark, categorized as poor) and a Cash Ratio of 63.03% (above 50%, categorized as good). Solvency performance is underperformed, with an average DAR of  and DER of, reflecting a high reliance on debt. Activity performance is identified as inefficient with an average TATO of 0.199 times (<2 times), while profitability remains negative on average with an NPM of and ROE of. Despite a significant upward trend in performance improvement, the company's overall financial health is considered suboptimal compared to industry standards. This condition is primarily driven by high debt burdens and low asset efficiency within the company.

This research try to examine how investment choices in property and real estate sector businesses listed on IDX (2020-2024) are impacted by the cost of debt and equity.For the accuracy of the analysis, this study also uses firm size and profitability as controler. Purposive sampling was used in the sampling process, which produced seven qualifying organizations with a total of 35 observations over a five-year period. Panel data regression was used for data analysis, and the Common Effect Model was shown to be the best estimation model. The findings show that investment decisions are significantly influenced by firm size, profitability, cost of debt, and cost of equity all at the same time. Nonetheless, investment choices are not much impacted by the cost of debt. Similarly, it has been demonstrated that the cost of equity has no appreciable effect on the capital expenditures of the businesses. Firm size has a favorable and substantial impact, making it the main motivator for investment activity in the real estate industry. During the study period, investment decisions were not significantly impacted by profitability. These results show that, especially in the post-pandemic economic recovery era, asset capacity and economies of scale are more important for the viability of real investment projects for property firms on the IDX than yearly variations in capital costs.
