Pengaruh Transaksi Pihak Berelasi Terhadap Performa Perusahaan Sektor Basic Materials di Indonesia

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effect of related party transactions on company performance measured by return on assets (ROA) and Tobin's Q (TQ). Seeing that there are shortcomings in previous research, this study specifies related party transactions (RPT) into four types of transactions, namely sales, purchases, accounts receivable, and payables, and focuses the scope of research using only the basic materials sector. The sample consisted of 30 companies in the basic materials sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2015-2020, with a total of 180 observations. This study was carried out with two regression models, and several sensitivity tests to see differences in results with the main model. As a result, related party transactions do not have a significant effect on TQ, but there is a negative effect between sales transactions on ROA. The limitation of this study is the assumption that stock prices strongly react to the company's financial performance and do not carry out an analysis as a whole group or do not differentiate transactions made by subsidiaries or parent companies. This research is expected to provide new understanding to companies, investors, regulators, and academics regarding the effect of related party transactions on company performance.
