This study aims to detect the background of earnings management behavior in which it shows the tendency of type I or II agency conflict. The high ownership concentration of firms in Indonesia leads type II agency conflict, but the good corporate governance formulation assumes conflict between management and shareholders. This study uses published data in IDX from [2009][2010][2011][2012][2013][2014]. TThe result reveals that reputation quality has negative significant correlation to earnings management behaviors, but corporate governance quality has insignificant correlation to earnings management, except percentage of independent commissioner board in moderate level. It has implication that management faces type II agency conflict. The majority may monitor management directly, so the finding reveals that independent commissioner board' s function is not optimum as part of corporate governance mechanism. According to the evidence, corporate governance formulation, especially in Indonesia, should be needed for reducing earnings management on type II tendency. Info Article

The population of study is all real estate companies and contractors listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) from 2011-2014, whether the sample of this study is taken by "purposive sampling method". Based on the the regression analysis, the results are: (1) the effect of tax planning on solvability is significantly positive; and (2) the interaction between the audit committee applied as moderating into the tax planning has significant impact on solvability. From the results of the regression analysis, it can be concluded that all research hypothesis is accepted.

Since 2002, the Indonesian Government has encouraged listed and unlisted companies to disclose sustainability reports comprised of three performance indicators—economic, environmental, and social—as Global Reporting Initiatives (GRI) guidance. The main issue is that different industry characteristics have different orientations of sustainability reporting because of the differences between their main stakeholders. In fact, several GRI criteria do not match every industry characteristic. For example, banking does not report on materials, emissions, or pollution as part of their environmental performance. This research aims to identify the patterns of sustainability reporting from 2015 to 2016, based on industry characteristics. The study compares environmental and social performance reporting patterns of the manufacturing and financial sectors. Results show that manufacturers are more concerned with environmental performance while the financial sector is more concerned with social performance. This evidence contributes to the stakeholder theory and efforts in sustainability report modelling.
This study seeks to analyze the acceptability of technology for personal financial management applications using mobile application technology. This study explored the aspects of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and intention to use of an android-based personal financial management application. The application, which is called Manage Your Money (MYM), is developed by researchers. This research involved 77 respondents to use this application for one week to record their personal financial management behavior. The data were analyzed by Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to measure the end users' satisfaction with Manage Your Money application. The results show the value of anti-image matrices on each variable has a range of values of 0.731 to 0.805 (greater than 0.5) so that all variables can be analyzed. The rotated component shows that the five variables belong to one group which then forms the end user satisfaction's construct. The results of the study show that 3 aspects in the TAM model go through four variables namely accuracy, system content, ease of use, system format, and timeliness in its use. This research shows that Manage Your Money application is acceptable to users.
The digital era reduces the boundaries obstacles between societies. However, the local value still has role because the value encourages the management to behave ethically. The aim of this study is to provide empirical evidence about the important role of local wisdom value to encourage the optimal financial company performance. This study uses the local value, such as Islamic Value, that has recognized formally by Indonesia Government as Jakarta Islamic Index. Management considers the Islamic Sharia as local wisdom value of Indonesian to behave ethically. The result shows that local value has significant positive effect to financial performance. The result also supported by the finding that corporate governance score that has formulated globally is insignificant different between the members of Jakarta Islamic Index and Non Jakarta Islamic Index. The result implies that local wisdom can be considered on digital era as the part of corporate governance formulation because it captures the certain region characteristics. This study contributes to agency theory through the awareness of management on local value emerged from local wisdom value to align with shareholder's interest. This study also contributes to the implementation of corporate governance practice, because the local wisdom value can become the social enforcement for management to behave ethically.
