This paper empirically examines the effects of capital structure on the performances of the Unites States’ Oil & Gas and Manufacturing sectors and investigates the differences in the dynamics of the two sectors. The study employs secondary data sourced from New York Stock Exchange (NYSE)/ NASDAQ for a period of ten (10) years, that is, 2010-2019. It utilized E-View 9.0 for generating the estimation results. The investigation has been performed using panel least square estimation technique and sectoral analysis on the data collected in order to test the set hypotheses. The result shows that although debt structure improved the performances of the firms, a sharp increase in such leverage tends to reduce firm performance for all the firms used. Coefficients namely asset tangibility, interest payment and dividend growth, directors’ shares/inside ownership and non-debt tax shield are quite significant in the result. They demonstrate positive relationships, indicating that these variables tend to affect firm performance on the average across both sectors; especially, the results show that the more efficient firms in terms of shielding taxation perform better. The study therefore recommends among other things that selection of debt as a source of capital finance should be done in line with the costs and benefits associated with the use of debt.

The aim of the research is to analyse the effect of  profitability, liquidity, and company’s size to company’s value and examines whetherDERis a mediating variable. Secondary data is taken from annual report of the companies. Analysis method used is multiple regression analysis (least square).  The finding of the research showed thatDER mediated  the relationship between CR  andTobin’s Q. However DER is not a mediating variable for the relationship betweenRNOAand TOBINas well as between SIZE  and Tobin’s Q. Mediating test is conducted by Sobel Test. The other finding is that RNOA positively affects to DER. CR negatively affects to DER. SIZE positively affects to DER and then DER negatively affects to Tobin’s Q. Recommendation for future research is to widen the samples, not just  42 companies, to add observed periods to give clearer description in long term.The next research can also use other dependent variables affecting capital structure and company’s value.

This research aims to provide the influence of non-debt variable tax shield and cost of financial distress affect the capital structure of the company's sub-sector metals and the like listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2013-2017. The method on this research is a quantitative approach with the type of correlation study. The data collection techniques in this study use secondary data with saturated sampling techniques. The population of this research is a metal sub-sector company and the like listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The samples in this study were as many as 16 metal sub-sector companies and the like listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The results showed that both the partial and simultaneous variables of the non-debt tax shield and cost of financial distress had no effect on the capital structure of the metal sub-sector companies and the like listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange ( IDX). It shows that the T-Test in a non-debt tax shield variable is obtained by the T-calculate result of 1.401 and the value of Sig. T. Acquired by 0, 165 > 0.05, then Ho accepted and H1 rejected which means there is no positive influence on the capital structure and in variable cost of financial distress obtained with the result of T-Calculate of 1.756 and the value of Sig. T. Acquired by 0, 083 > 0.05, then Ho is accepted and H1 is rejected which means there is no positive influence on the capital structure. Then simultaneously F test result in can with a fcalculate value of 2.295 with a level of Sig. 0, 108, because of the value of Sig. F > 0.05, then Ho accepted and H1 rejected. This means that there is no variable influence of non debt tax shield (X1) and cost of financial distress (X2) to the capital structure (Y).

The choice of capital structure has greatly contributed to the success of the firms in general and energy in particular. This study uses a sample data set of 250 energy firms over the period 2010-2019, and by using generalized least square (GLS) method to perform a survey. The main factors in this study include profitability, firm age, state shareholding and depreciation tax shield, etc. The study found that except firm growth, all factors including firm performance, age of firm, size of firm, asset structure, short-term solvency, and depreciation have significantly affected firm’s capital structure choice in the case of energy industry in a developing country. Furthermore, a positive effect was also found for size of firm and asset structure while a negative effect was detected for other factors such as firm performance, asset structure, firm age, short-term solvency, and depreciation. Through this research, we also conclude that the theory of pecking order, and the theory of representative cost are known as the basis for financial managers to build sound capital structures for businesses.

Research aims: This study aims to provide new empirical evidence regarding CSR practices and their impacts on firm performance and corporate reputation in the context of a developing country region, namely Indonesia.Design/Methodology/Approach This research samples were 70 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange with five years of observation. This study used secondary data, which already exists and was obtained from the Indonesia Stock Exchange's official website. Also, Partial Least Square was employed to test the hypothesis's parameter estimates.Research findings: The results revealed that CSR disclosure could improve firm performance but could not increase corporate reputation. Thus, companies that carry out CSR activities and pay attention to stakeholders mean that they (employees, customers, suppliers, investors, etc.) will contribute to the company’s economic performance. The results of this study also uncovered that the level of investor awareness of corporate reputation was still low. Investors were only oriented to short-term investments and did not care about the long-term viability of the company. It showed that corporate reputation did not fully mediate the relationship between CSR disclosure and company performance.Theoretical contribution/Originality: As this study develops scientific research in the fields of CSR, corporate performance, and corporate reputation as the mediating role, the findings of this research support the stakeholder theory that a company not only increases profits but also should be accountable to all stakeholders. Besides, corporate reputation partially mediated the relationship between CSR and firm performance. It indicated that in Indonesia, concern for corporate reputation was still low.
