Abstract
This research examines the effect of existence of audit committee andqualified auditor on the relationship between company’s size and leverage,
and earnings management. This study is motivated by inconsistence results
of previous studies on this topic. Supported by agency theory explaining
problem between the agent and the principal, researcher is motivated to
contribute on the importance of monitoring management performance by audit
committee and qualified independent auditor.
Sample consists of 364 manufacturing companies listed on the Jakarta
Stock Exchange during 1999-2003. Earnings management is measured by
discretionary accrual calculated using modified Jones Model. The effect of
audit committee on the relationship between size and leverage is tested using
coefficient difference test.
The result shows that large companies tend to have small discretionary
accrual, thus it would have better quality earnings. The existence of audit
committee could reduce the effect of leverage on earnings management.
Qualified auditor could diminish the effect of size and leverage on earnings
management.
