Abstract

Fraud in financial statements can have an impact on the accuracy and reliability of the use of financial statements, including affecting the amount of tax, fines paid, and the audit process. This study aims to analyze the effect of pressure, arrogance and collusion on financial statement fraud and the role of income tax rates as a moderating variable in non-financial companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2020-2022. The data in this study consisted of 207 research observations determined using purposive sampling method. Data collection was conducted through document analysis, using annual financial reports and annual reports. The analytical technique employed was regression analysis, moderated by Eviews. The study commenced with a descriptive statistical analysis, followed by an examination of the classical assumptions, including multicollinearity and heteroskedasticity. Finally, an analysis of moderated regression was conducted. The results of the regression analysis indicated that pressure, arrogance, and collusion were found to influence financial statement fraud. The moderated regression analysis demonstrated that the income tax rate was capable of moderating the influence of pressure, arrogance, and collusion on financial statement fraud. The theoretical implications of this study offer a novel perspective on the moderating effect of income tax rates on the relationship between pressure, arrogance and collusion and financial statement fraud. This study is of practical value and provides information that can inform decision-making for stakeholders.
