This study aims to determine the effect of profitability and Financial Leverage on the Cost of Debt, and the role of Earnings Management as a moderating variable. In this study, profitability is measured by the ratio of return on equity, financial leverage is measured by the proxy debt ratio, earnings management as measured by discretionary accruals, and cost of debt is measured by the ratio of interest expense divided by the average total debt. The population in this study are publicly traded companies listed on the IDX, and the sample used is manufacturing companies listed on the IDX for the 2016-2019 period. Based on the purposive sampling method, the samples obtained were 69 manufacturing companies and 276 observations. The results showed that profitability has a negative effect on the cost of debt, while financial leverage has no effect on the cost of debt, earnings management cannot weaken the negative effect of profitability on the cost of debt and earnings management cannot weaken the negative effect of financial leverage on the cost of debt.

Each company operates within the framework of interrelated structures: ownership, corporate governance and capital structure. The particular combination of these dimensions determines the corporate financial architecture of the company. Despite the growing body of literature on the challenges of the knowledge economy to the structural dimensions of companies, still little is known about the financial architecture of innovative firms. At the same time it is widely recognized that such companies substantially differ from traditional types of businesses in their business models and dynamics. Meanwhile, the financial architecture of a company generates the distribution of the incentives to enhance innovations affecting interests and risk-sharing among stakeholders. To address the lack of research into the interaction of corporate structures and their distinct features in innovative companies, this paper aims at identifying the robust financial architecture patterns of innovative companies. Using a sample of more than 1,300 publicly traded US-based manufacturing companies, we use an agglomerative hierarchical clustering method to identify relevant patterns and compare them to the firms which are not considered to be ‘knowledge intensive’. The empirical results allow the identification of seven robust financial architecture patterns within innovative companies. Our findings show that the first major difference between the financial architecture of innovative and non-innovative firms is in the higher role of activist institutional investors in the ownership. The second notable difference is related to CEO-duality, which plays a significant role in corporate governance only in innovative firms. Moreover, innovative companies are less leveraged than non-innovative firms. In addition, mature innovative companies demonstrate better financial performance.

We explore the relationship between the degree of financial risk disclosure and a firm’s financial attributes. Financial risk disclosure indices (FRDIs) are calculated based on a set of 30 disclosure identifiers through content analysis of the annual reports of 48 manufacturing companies over a six-year period (2010–2015) in Bangladesh. We find no common practice among the companies in disclosing financial risk by integrating a customized financial risk disclosure into their financial reporting process. The results indicate that firm size, financial performance, and auditor type are positively and significantly associated with the level of financial risk disclosure.

The study strives to examine the effect of financial leverage on financial performance in a developing country context using two OLS regression models based on panel data consisting of 816 cases (48 companies x 17 years). Financial performance is measured using ROA, ROE, EPS, and Tobin’s Q, and financial leverage is measured using the debt-assets ratio and debt-equity ratio. It is observed that ROA and Tobin’s Q are negatively correlated with financial leverage, which is in line with the assumptions of the pecking order theory, market timing theory, and many empirical studies. However, financial leverage has a positive effect on ROE and no effect on EPS. These results are also consistent with the MM theorem, static trade off theory and many other empirical studies. Yet again, the two OLS models have put forward conflicting results while taking EPS as the dependent variable. The results corroborate the inefficient use of debt capital and suggest the need to improve the reliability of accounting information.

This research explores the impact of capital structure on the profitability of publicly traded manufacturing firms in Bangladesh. In this paper, we applied the fixed effect regression to find out the correlation among independent variables (debt ratio, equity ratio and debt to equity ratio) and dependent variables (return on asset, return on equity and earnings per share). A sample of 50 observations of selected 10 manufacturing companies listed in Dhaka Stock Exchange has been analyzed over the period of 2013 to 2017. This research reveals that the debt ratio and equity ratio have a significant positive impact but debt to equity ratio has a significant negative impact on ROA. This paper also exposes that, equity ratio has a significant positive impact but debt to equity ratio has a significant negative impact on ROE. Finally, debt and equity ratio has a significant negative impact on EPS. Findings of this research will help the listed manufacturing companies to maintain an optimum capital structure which will lead to the maximization of stockholders wealth.
