ABSTRACT
This study aims to determine the effect of ownership structure, firm size, independent
commissioners and bonus compensation on earnings management in basic and chemical
industry companies in 2017-2020 either partially or simultaneously. The sample in this study
were 18 companies in the Basic and Chemical Industry Sector listed on the Indonesia Stock
Exchange in 2017-2020 with purposive sampling technique. The type of data in this study is
quantitative data, namely data obtained in the form of numbers. The analytical method used is
multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this study found that Ownership Structure
and Firm Size had a negative effect on earnings management, Independent Commissioners had
a positive effect on earnings management and bonus compensation had no positive effect on
earnings management. Simultaneously Ownership Structure, Firm Size, Independent
Commissioner and Bonus Compensation have a positiveeffect on earnings management.

corporate governance mechanisms that can be used to resolve agency conflicts, namely
increasing managerial ownership, increasing institutional ownership, independent
commissioners and audit committees (Andri and Hanung, 2007).
One of the earnings management phenomena that has occurred in manufacturing
companies in Indonesia is the case of PT. Indofarma Tbk (INAF), and PT. Toshiba, Tbk. The
first case is the case of PT. Indofarma, Tbk (INAF) where this case is a case of error in the
presentation of financial statements where the value of Goods in Process presented in the
financial statements of PT. Indofarma, Tbk in 2010 was higher than the reported value of 28.87
billion. As a result, the cost of goods sold is lower (understated) and profit is higher (overstated)
than it should be (Source: detikfinance.co, 2015).
Based on the phenomena related above in the basic and chemical industrial sector
companies to overcome the practice of earnings management can be influenced by certain
factors. In this study, the factors that are thought to influence earnings management are
ownership structure, firm size, independent commissioners and bonus compensation. This study
intends to determine what factors can affect earnings management in the company. The
difference between this research and previous research lies in the period of year, the object of
research, and the selected independent variables. This study uses a research period of four years
(2017- 2020), with the assumption that in that time range there are many changes that occur in
the business world and the state of the Indonesian economy, as well as to obtain the latest
results regarding earnings management by companies, especially in sector companies basic and
chemical industry.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Profit management
According to Moeljadi (2006:26) Earnings management can be done by maximizing
profit. Profit maximization is the profit maximization of the company after tax. Profit
maximization is often considered as a company goal. Based on several understandings from
previous experts, it can be concluded that earnings management is carried out intentionally
within limits to lead to a desired level of profit.
According to Subramanyam and Wild (2010:4), earnings management has three types of
strategies that managers usually use to achieve long- term earnings management goals, namely:
a. Income Increasing, managers increase profits in the current period.
b. Taking a Bath, managers perform earnings management by removing assets that will incur
future costs.

Ownership Structure
According to I Made Sudana (2011:11) stated that the ownership structure is the
separation between company owners and company managers. The owner or shareholder is the
party who includes capital into the company, while the manager is the party appointed by the
owner and given the authority to make decisions in managing the company, with the hope that
the manager acts in the interests of the owner.
Managerial ownership is share ownership by the company's management. Managerial
share ownership can align the interests of shareholders with managers, because managers directly
feel the benefits of the decisions taken and managers who bear the risk if any. Losses that arise
as a consequence of making wrong decisions. Sonya Majid (2016:4) states that managerial
ownership is the shareholder of the management who actively participates in decision- making
within the company, for example directors and commissioners.
Institutional ownership is share ownership by other institutions, namely ownership by
other companies or institutions. Share ownership by parties formed by institutions such as
insurance companies, banks, investment companies and other institutional ownership.
Institutional ownership is one of the tools that can be used to reduce agency conflict. According
to Pasaribu, Topowijaya and Sri (2016:156) institutional ownership is the percentage of shares
owned by institutions. Institutional ownership is a tool that can be used to reduce conflicts of
interest.
Firm Size
According to Brigham & Houston (2010:4) the size of the company is as follows:
"Company size is a measure of the size of a company which is indicated or assessed by total
assets, total sales, total profit, tax expense and others".
According to Hartono (2008:14) the size of the company (firm size) is as follows: "the
size of the company can be measured by the total assets / large assets of the company by using
the calculation of the logarithmic value of total assets".
Independent Commissioner
In the general guidelines for Good Corporate Governance (2006:13) the definition of an
independent commissioner is as follows: "members of the board of commissioners who are not
affiliated with the board of directors, other members of the board of commissioners and
controlling shareholders, and are free from business relationships or other relationships that may
affect their ability to act independently. or act solely for the benefit of thecompany”.
According to Bank Indonesia regulation No.8/4/PBI/2006 concerning the implementation
of good corporate governance for Commercial Banks article 1 paragraph 4, independent
commissioners are: “board of commissioners who have no financial, management, share
ownership and/or family relationship with the board other commissioners, directors and/or
controlling shareholders or other relationships that may affect their ability to act
independently”.
Bonus Compensation
According to Hasibuan (2017:119) Compensation is all income in the form of money,
goods directly or indirectly received by employees in return for services provided to the
company. The establishment of an effective compensation system is an important part of
human resource management as it helps attract and retain talented jobs. In addition, the
company's compensation system has an impact on strategic performance.
According to Marwansyah (2016: 269) Compensation is a fair and appropriate award or
reward, direct or indirect, financial or non-financial to employees, as a reward or contribution of
their services to the achievement of company goals.

Hypothesis
Effect of Ownership Structure on Earnings Management
According to Mahadewi and Krisnadewi (2017) where the relationship states that
managerial ownership has a negative effect on earnings management. The research of Irena
Palma and Neni Marlina (2020) states that managerial ownership and institutional ownership
have no significant effect on earnings management. The results of research by Rexy Joseph and
Basuki Hadiprajitno (2017) state that managerial ownership structure has no effect on
earnings management.
H1: It is suspected that the ownership structure affects earnings management in basic and
chemical industrial sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2017-2020.

RESEARCH METHODS
Data Type
The data used is quantitative data. Quantitative data, namely data obtained in the form of
numbers. Quantitative data in this study is sourced from the annual reports of manufacturing
companies in the basic and chemical industry sub-sectors listed on the Indonesia Stock
Exchange in 2017- 2020 which are contained on the official IDX website, namely www.idx.co
.id and www.idnfinancials.com.
Data source
The data source used is secondary data. According to Sugiyono (2015:137) secondary
data is a data source that does not directly provide data to data collectors. As an empirical study,
secondary data in this study were obtained from journals, articles and previous studies. It is
collected by downloading it from the Indonesia Stock Exchange website.
Population
The population is a generalization area consisting of: objects or subjects that have certain
qualities and characteristics determined by the researcher to be studied and then draw
conclusions (Sugiyono, 2016:117). The population in this study were Basic and Chemical
Industrial Companies totaling 67 companies.

Sample
According to Sugiyono (2016: 118) The sample is part of the number and characteristics
possessed by the population. The sample selection in this study used a purposive sampling
method. Purposive sampling method is one of the sampling techniques with special
consideration so that the data from the results of the research conducted becomes more
representative.
• Basic and Chemical Industry Companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2017-
2020.
• Basic and Chemical Industry Companies that use rupiah currency.
• Profitable Basic and Chemical Industry Companies
Companies that meet the criteria for research samples are 18 companies, so a sample of 18
companies x 4 years of research = 72 data.
Multicollinearity Test
The multicollinearity test aims to test whether in the regression model there is a
correlation between the independent variables. In a good regression model, there should be no
correlation between independent variables. To detect the existence of multicollinearity in the
regression model in this study, it was done by looking at the tolerance value and variance
inflation factor (VIF). The cutoff value used is the tolerance value or equal to the VIF value if
the analysis results show the tolerance value is above 0.10 and the VIF value is below 10, then
there is no multicollinearity between variables in the regression model (Ghozali, 2016:103).
Autocorrelation Test
The autocorrelation test aims to test whether a linear regression model has a correlation
between the confounding error in the period and the error in the t-1 period (previous). If there is
a correlation, it is called an autocorrelation problem (Ghozali (2016: 107) The hypotheses to be
tested are:
• If the test value and probability < 0.05, it can be concluded that the residuals are not random
or thereis an autocorrelation between the residual values.
• If the test and probability values are > 0.05, it can be concluded that the residuals are
random or there is no autocorrelation between the residual values.

Heteroscedasticity Test
According to Ghozali (2016:134) the heteroscedasticity test has the aim of testing whether
the regression model has an inequality of variance from the residuals of one observation to
another. In this study using the Glejser test by regressing the dependent variable to the absolute
value of the residual. Residual is the difference between the observed value and the predicted
value, and absolute is the absolute value (Ghozali, 2016:134). Thecriteria are as follows:
• If the significance of the independent variable with the absolute residual > 0.05,
heteroscedasticity occurs.
• If the significance of the independent variable with the absolute residual < 0.005, there is no
heteroscedasticity problem.

In the managerial ownership variable the residual absolute value obtained is 0.729, the
institutional ownership variable residual absolute value is 0.542, the firm size variable residual
absolute value obtained is 0.699, the independent commissioner variable residual absolute value
obtained is 0.516 and for bonus compensation the absolute residual value obtained is 0.158 .
This shows that there is no heteroscedasticity because the value of > 0.05.

compensation can explain earnings management by 18.3%. While the remaining 100% - 18.3%
= 81.7% is explained by factors other than the variables studied above.

Discussion
Effect of Ownership Structure on Earnings Management
The t-count value of 2.490 is greater than the t-table of 1.66792. The significance level
shows 0.015 which is greater than the 0.05 significance level. The results of the institutional
ownership test on earnings management obtained a t-count value of 2.307, which is larger than
the t-table of 1.66792. The significance level shows 0.024 which is greater than the 0.05
significance level, it can be interpreted that the ownership structure has an effect on earnings
management in basic and chemical industrial sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock
Exchange for the 2017-2020 period.

Suggestion
1. For future research, it is possible to increase the research sample by extending the research
period. In addition, it is expected for the next researcher to add variation to the independent
variables, such as the audit committee, the size of the KAP and others.
2. For companies, the results of this study are expected to be input for companies to pay more
attention to earnings management so that the company can get more profits and minimize
company losses.
3. For investors, it is better for investors in making investment decisions to first examine how
the performance of a company and still comply with regulations regarding sales which can
better understand the occurrence of an investment from one company to another.
