  • The purpose of this research is to give an empirical evidence regarding the effect of corporate governance mechanisms and auditor reputation on earnings management. This research uses ownership concentration, institutional ownership, managerial ownership, the composition of the board of commissioners, and size of audit committee as the proxies of corporate governance mechanisms.

Earnings management in this research is measured by using conditional revenue model by Stubben (2009).
