This study investigates the effect of local government size, local government spending, and the local government dependence level on the financial reporting quality. This study employs a quantitative method. The research data summarizes the financial statements of the regency/city governments in Papua and West Papua from 2016 to 2020. The data is sourced from www.djpk.kemenkeu.go.id and www.bpk.go.id. By using purposive sampling, the sample amounted to 207 observations. The hypothesis testing of this research was conducted employing logistic regression. The test results suggest that the local government size and local government spending are positively associated with financial reporting quality. In contrast, the local government dependence level is negatively associated with financial reporting quality.

This research investigates the impact of the three earnings management methods according to Dechow and Skinner (2000) and Gunny (2005), i.e., accrual earnings management (AEM), real earnings management (REM), and fraudulent accounting (FRA), on idiosyncratic risk. This research also examines the moderating effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure on these associations. This research employs balance panel data consisting of 492 observations from 2016 to 2019. This research obtains 123 companies listed under the manufacturing industry of the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) through purposive sampling. To test the hypotheses, this research uses multiple linear regression models. This research finds that all three earnings management methods are positively associated with idiosyncratic risk. Furthermore, CSR disclosure is proven to weaken the effect of accrual earnings management and fraudulent accounting on idiosyncratic risk, but this does not apply to real earnings management. These results are robust after a sensitivity test. This research fills the existing gap within idiosyncratic risk study. Among similar studies, this research is the first to investigate the effect of fraudulent accounting on idiosyncratic risk and the moderating effect of CSR disclosure. This research also raises awareness of the cost of idiosyncratic risk, especially in emerging markets with relatively smaller stock markets, which makes diversification more challenging. It provides insights to market regulators on how investors can benefit from more disclosures

This study explicates the effect of green supply chain management on corporate sustainability performance in Indonesia. We conducted an online survey to collect data from targeted respondents with three years of experience on average in the supply chain management field. The respondents consist of company managers, public accountants, public sector accounting managers, and accounting lecturers. We analyzed the data by implementing ordinary least square regression procedures. Our study results suggest that green purchasing, green manufacturing, and internal environmental management can hardly improve economic performance, social performance, and environmental performance. However, strong evidence shows that green distribution triggers a positive effect on economic, social, and environmental performance. Our study implicates that both private sector companies and public sector organizations in Indonesia, as an emerging country, should consider green supply chain management as a necessity. More organizations should pay more attention to apply the green supply chain framework to nourish the competitive advantage.

Kualitas laporan keuangan mencerminkan kesesuaian informasi keuangan yang disajikan oleh suatu entitas dengan standar akuntansi yang berlaku. Laporan keuangan yang berkualitas baik menunjukkan bahwa informasi yang terkandung di dalamnya dapat digunakan dalam pengambilan keputusan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menginvestigasi pengaruh transparansi informasi keuangan, belanja modal, kesehatan keuangan dan ukuran pemerintah daerah terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan pemerintah daerah. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan metode kuantitatif. Data penelitian diambil dari ikhtisar laporan keuangan pemerintah kabupaten/kota di Indonesia tahun 2016 sampai dengan tahun 2019. Data penelitian ini bersumber dari www.djpk.kemenkeu.go.id, website resmi pemerintah daerah, dan www.bpk.go.id. Berdasarkan purposive sampling, sampel penelitian ini berjumlah 349 observasi. Pengujian hipotesis penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan analisis regresi logistik. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa transparansi informasi keuangan dan ukuran pemerintah daerah berpengaruh positif terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan. Penelitian ini juga menyimpulkan bahwa belanja modal dan kesehatan keuangan pemerintah daerah tidak bepengaruh terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan. Penelitian ini dapat digunakan oleh Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan dalam melakukan indikasi awal atas kualitas laporan keuangan pemerintah daerah.
