  • The level of Free cash flow has a pivotal role for investors to understand the inefficiency of a company's investment. This paper discusses empirical research that investigates the main effects of free cash flow and the effects of their interactions with earning management on investment inefficiency. This study uses a sample of 56 infrastructure, utility and transportation companies registered in Indonesian's Capital Market for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2014 to 2018. This study uses a multiple regression method with the pooled ordinary least square (OLS) approach for 256 observational data.
