This study aims to determine the Pentagon Determinant Fraud in detecting fraudulent financial statements. Fraudulent financial statements are proxied by the Fraud Score Model. Whereas the pressure factor is proxied by insisting from within, for the opportunity factor proxied by industry conditions, the rationalization factor is proxied by the ratio of total accruals, the competency factor is proxied by the change of directors and arrogance is proxied by the duality of quality positions at the CEO. The population in this study amounted to 100 companies incorporated in the compass index 100 contained in the Indonesia Stock Exchange and for the sample of the study were 35 companies belonging to the compass index 100 contained in the Indonesia Stock Exchange, which was selected using the purposive sampling method for the 2017-2018 period. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. Based on the test results, it was concluded that the pentagon fraud component included internal pressure (LEV), industry conditions (INVENTORY), rationalization (TATA) influencing financial statement fraud while competence (DCHANGE) and arrogance (DCD) had no effect on financial fraud statement. This proves that internal pressure (LEV), industry conditions (INVENTORY), and rationalization (TATA) can be used to detect fraud in financial statements.

Fraudulent Financial Statements

Identifying financial statement fraud activities is very important for the sustainable development of a socio-economy, especially in China’s emerging capital market. Although many scholars have paid attention to fraud detection in recent years, they have rarely focused on both financial and non-financial predictors by using a multi-analytic approach. The present study detected financial statement fraud activities based on 17 financial and 7 non-financial variables by using six data mining techniques including support vector machine (SVM), classification and regression tree (CART), back propagation neural network (BP-NN), logistic regression (LR), Bayes classifier (Bayes) and K-nearest neighbor (KNN). Specifically, the research period was from 2008 to 2017 and the sample is companies listed on the Shanghai stock exchange and Shenzhen stock exchange, with a total of 536 companies of which 134 companies were allegedly involved in fraud. The stepwise regression and principal component analysis (PCA) were also adopted for reducing variable dimensionality. The experimental results show that the SVM data mining technique has the highest accuracy across all conditions, and after using stepwise regression, 13 significant variables were screened and the classification accuracy of almost all data mining techniques was improved. However, the first 16 principal components transformed by PCA did not yield better classification results. Therefore, the combination of SVM and the stepwise regression dimensionality reduction method was found to be a good model for detecting fraudulent financial statements.
