This study focuses on how best performing listed companies in CSE make strategies in tax planning to reduce tax liabilities without violating rules and regulations imposed by the Tax Authority. In this study, the corporate tax planning was measured by using the Effective Tax Rate (ETR) and the financial performance was measured by using Return on Assets (ROA). The sample of the study was designed based on criteria namely, the largest and most liquid companies in the Sri Lankan equity market and the sample period was restricted for the period 10 years from 2009-2018. The sample represents seventeen (17) companies which are used to calculate the S&P SL 20 index. Data was collected through the published annual reports of CSE of the selected listed companies during the selected financial time period. Co-integration regression along with Panel Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS) statistical technique was used to explore this study. Johansen co-integration test confirmed to run the panel DOLS. According to the result of that, corporate tax planning has a negative impact on the financial performance of Sri Lankan best-performing companies listed in CSE however, which is not statistically significant at 5% level. It provides evidence that there is no significant impact from corporate tax planning strategies to the financial performance of listed companies in CSE. This evidence implies that Sri Lankan firms do not utilize the loopholes embedded in the Sri Lankan tax law efficiently.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of ownership concentration and the other endogenous factors on the financial performance of companies listed on the Colombo Stock Exchange. Both pooled and ordinary least squares regressions are used to analyze the data. The return on assets (ROA) is used as the performance measure. One study finding is that the ownership concentration within these listed companies does not have a statistically significant positive relationship with the ROA. However, the study indicates that firm size, quick ratio and ratio of inventory investment to total assets have positive impacts on the ROA. But the debt ratio is negatively related to the financial performance of the listed companies.

The primary objective of this paper is to empirically examine whether corporate social responsibility (CSR) influences corporate tax avoidance (CTA) of Chinese listed companies. The study is based on a sample of 3481 firm-year observations from 2009 to 2015 using CSR ratings from the Rankins (RKS) corporate social responsibility ratings agency in China, and all financial data extracted from the China Stock Market and Accounting Research (CSMAR). The authors foundthat CSR is negatively related to the current and cash effective tax rate (proxies of corporate tax avoidance), suggesting that responsible firms are more involved in tax avoidance as compared to less responsible firms. Their findings are robust against different control variables. Additionally, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, the paper is one of the first to document an empirical association between CSR and corporate tax avoidance of Chinese listed companies.

Methodology/Technique - This research uses 3 recent years and uses variables not used in previous research. The 43 respondents were chosen using purposive sampling. The hypotheses were tested using multiple regressions with Eviews program to determine the relationship between each independent variable to firm value. Findings - The empirical results show that tax planning that is measured by the cash effective tax rate has a negative effect on firm value, while tax planning measured by effective cash rate and tax savings has no effect on firm value.

<p><em>This study replicates Blaylocket al. (2012). Through this research, the writer wanted to analyze the influence of earnings management and tax planning as source of Large Positive Book-Tax Differences (LPBTD) to earnings persistence. This research uses panel data of manufacturing companies listed on Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period of research year 2012-2013. The data is analyzed with Pooled Least Square. Unfortunately, the authors can not prove that earnings management as a source of LPBTD can weaken earnings persistence. The result of earnings persistence estimation is exactly the opposite. This condition may occur because the action of earnings management by managers is viewed in terms of efficiency contracting perspective. In addition, the authors also can not prove that tax planning as a source of LPBTD strengthens the profit persistence. According to Blaylock et al. (2012), this happens because the measurement of cash effective tax rate can not be reviewed only with period of 5 (five) years.</em></p><em>Keywords:Persistensi profit, profit management, tax planning, Large positive book-tax differences</em>

The sample excludes firms in some industries: financial, agriculture, construction, and mining. The total sample used in this paper is 212 firms.

Objective - This study aims to determine the effect of earning management and corporate governance mechanisms on corporate tax avoidance.

Meanwhile, earnings management uses the modified Jones model. The sample of this study include non-financial companies that are listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) between 2014 and 2016. Findings - Corporate tax avoidance can be detected by using the effective tax rate (ETR), which is the ratio of income to tax expenses. This sample was chosen using a purposive sampling method, resulting in 871 firms. The results suggest that earnings management has a significant impact on ETR. Novelty - This study identifies that only independent commissioners and audit quality have a significant influence on ETR. Type of Paper - Empirical Keywords: Tax Avoidance; Earnings Management; Corporate Governance; Effective Tax Rate; Audit Quality. JEL Classification: G3, G39, G39.
