The subjects of this study are the cement sub-sector companies publicly traded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the years 2014 and 2018. This study employed a saturated sampling technique, specifically census sampling, which resulted in a sample of 30 enterprises. In this study, the capital structure is measured using the debt-equity ratio (DER), while the company's financial performance is measured using return on equity (ROE). This research employed SmartPLS 3.0 software for testing purposes. The findings of this study suggest that the capital structure, represented by the debt-to-equity ratio (DER), has a detrimental impact on agency costs. Additionally, agency cost negatively influences corporate financial performance, as measured by return on equity (ROE). However, the study did not find any indirect effect of capital structure on financial performance through agency cost as an intervening variable.</em></p>2024-05-31T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Agnes Agataha Br Hutapea, Erna Sulistyowatihttps://dhsjournal.id/index.php/ijospat/article/view/195Going Concern Audit Opinion: Does it Depend on Disclosure and Previous Years’ Audit Opinion?2024-08-04T17:35:32+00:00Nanda Wahyu Indah Kiranananda.wahyu.ak@upnjatim.ac.idJoshua Christian Simanjuntak 1613010237@student.upnjatim.ac.id<p><em>A going Concern Audit Opinion is an opinion given by an independent auditor to the auditee. This opinion contains the auditor's assessment regarding the company's sustainability. This opinion is one factor that becomes a consideration for management, creditors, investors, and other stakeholders in making decisions. The population in this study were all companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2017 - 2019 period. The sample selection technique used purposive sampling, and 25 companies were obtained, so 50 samples were processed. Hypothesis testing uses multivariate analysis, namely logistic regression, with E-Views 10 software. This research aims to determine the effect of disclosure and the previous year's opinion on going concern audit opinion with opinion shopping as a moderating variable. This research found that disclosure did not affect the acceptance of going-concern audit opinions. Still, the previous year's opinion positively affected the acceptance of going-concern audit opinions. These results indicate that investors have to be careful in reading the audit opinion of the previous year regarding the company's going concern.</em></p>2024-05-31T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Nanda Wahyu Indah Kirana, Joshua Christian Simanjuntak
