This study aims to test the influence of environmental performance in Indonesia associated with the cost of capital. This research is motivated by previous findings which stated that the environmental performance received a good response from investors as reflected in increased stock prices (Ba et al., 2013; Middleton, 2015). The development hypothesis of the research is based on the theory of stakeholder, legitimacy and the theory of signal and some previous research such as the studies that have been done (Guenster et al., 2011; Sarumpaet et al., 2017). This type of research is research explanatory, the determination of the sample using the method of purposive sampling with number of samples to qualify as many as 215 observation data derived from the annual financial reports of companies listed on the stock exchange in 2015 until 2017. The results of the statistical analysis show that there are significant negative not significant on the relationship of environmental performance with cost of capital, it can be explained that only a small fraction of investors understand the performance information of the environment, and make it as a basis for making the decision to invest.

This study aims to determine and analyze the effect of profitability (ROA) on stock prices with corporate social responsibility (CSR) as a variable that moderates the two variables. The object of this research is companies incorporated in JII and SRI-KEHATI indexes that meet the test sample criteria during the period 2016 - 2018. This study uses a quantitative approach. Analysis of the data in this study used a moderation regression analysis (MRA). This study uses 20 samples for the JII index and 21 for the SRI-KEHATI index. Data obtained from the company's financial statements incorporated in JII and the SRI-KEHATI index for the period of 2016 - 2018 on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) website. The results showed that Return On Assets (ROA) had a significant effect on JII stock prices and SRI-KEHATI index stock prices. Furthermore, with CSR as a moderating variable showing the results of research with JII that is partially CSR disclosure shows a significant value which means CSR disclosure is able to moderate the relationship of ROA with JII stock prices. Overall (simultaneous) independent variables (ROA, CSR, ROA * CSR) significantly influence the stock price of JII. Furthermore, the results of research with the SRI-KEHATI index partially disclose CSR as a moderating variable showing a significant value. This means that CSR disclosure is not able to moderate the relationship of ROA with JII stock prices. while overall (simultaneous) independent variables (ROA, CSR, ROA * CSR) affect the stock price of the SRI-KEHATI index.Keywords: Profitability,StockPrice,ROA,CSR

This study investigates the relationship between interest rate and stock price volatility in textile sector of Karachi Stock Exchange. Initially, EWMA model is used to calculate the volatility of stock prices. Stock returns are calculated as a proxy to stock prices. Afterwards, linear regression analyzes the relation between interest rate and stock price volatility. The significance F change is below the limit of 0.05 showing goodness-to-fit of the model to project the responses from predictor to be reliable. The research concludes the relationship of interest rate with volatility of stock prices as slightly inverse in nature.

Financial accounting standards emphasize timeliness as one of the key components of decision-driven informationalrelevance. Accordingly, if information is not available as and when due but rather made available so late that it bears novalue for future action, then it is operationally irrelevant. To fulfil their primary objective and be useful, therefore,financial reports are expected to be characterized by relevance, reliability, completeness, and timeliness. Against thisbackground, this study examined the relationship of firm size and board independence respectively to the timeliness offinancial reporting in companies quoted on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE). Secondary data pertaining to the firmswere derived from their annual reports and the NSE Fact Book for 12 years (2000-2011). Analysis of the research datainvolved test of multicollinearity, heteroskedasticity, and autocorrelation; while the multiple regression techniquefacilitated the test of research hypotheses. The results established a significant relationship between firm size andtimeliness of financial reporting; while in the case of board independence, the relationship was not significant.Consequently, it is recommended that regulatory bodies should ensure better of enforcement of standards relating totimeliness so that financial reports of the firms will be of higher value to key stakeholders.

This research aims to determine empirically the effect of the company's fundamental ratio which in this study is proxied by return on equity (ROE), current ratio (CR), and debt to equity ratio (DER) on the value of the company which is measured using price earning ratio (PER) and also to see whether stock prices affect this relationship. The coal sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2017 - 2019 are the population chosen in this study. Sampling was done by purposive sampling, obtained 11 companies in the study period that met the data collection criteria, so that the total financial reports collected were 33 audited financial reports. The type of data is secondary data obtained from the official website www.idx.co.id. The analysis method used is multiple regression analysis. The results shown in this study are partially ROE has a positive effect and DER has a negative effect on stock prices, while CR has no effect on stock prices. Simultaneously, the three fundamental ratios have a significant effect on stock prices. Either partially or simultaneously ROE, CR, and DER have no effect on firm value. This study shows that stock prices have a significant effect on firm value, but stock prices are not an intervening variable in seeing the relationship between fundamental ratios and firm value. Keywords: Fundamental ratio, stock price, firm value

Financial statements are an instrument for companies in providing various information and company performance to those who have interests. Financial reports must be reported on time. The length of time the audit is completed by the auditor can cause audit delay. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine the effect of profitability, solvency, firm size on audit delay with the reputation of KAP as a moderating variable. The theory in this study uses agency theory and signal theory. The object of this research is 10 mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2016-2018. The sampling technique used is the Non-Probability Sampling technique, using a purposive sampling method. The results of this study indicate that solvency has a positive and significant effect on audit delay and the reputation of KAP can strengthen the relationship of profitability to audit delay.Keywords: Audit Delay, Profitability, Solvability, Company Size, Reputation of Public Accountant Firm.

Vertical axis wind turbine technology has been applied last years, very long after horizontal axis wind turbine technology. Aerodynamic problems of vertical axis wind machines are discussible. An important problem is the determination of the incidence law in the interaction between wind and rotor blades. The focus of the work is to establish equations of the incidence depending on the blade azimuth, and to solve them. From these results, aerodynamic torques and power can be calculated. The incidence angle is a parameter of velocity triangle, and both the factors depend not only on the blade azimuth but also on the ratio of rotational speed and horizontal speed. The built computational program allows theoretically selecting the relationship of geometric parameters of wind turbine in accordance with requirements on power, wind speed and installation conditions.

Abstract This four-part series of papers addresses the problem of systematic determination of the influence of several tire factors on tire treadwear. Both the main effect of each factor and some of their interactive effects are included. The program was also structured to evaluate the influence of some external-to-tire conditions on the relationship of tire factors to treadwear. Part I describes the experimental design used to evaluate the effects on treadwear of generic tire type, aspect ratio, tread pattern (groove or void level), type of pattern (straight rib or block), and tread compound. Construction procedures and precautions used to obtain a valid and functional test method are included. Two guiding principles to be used in the data analyses of Parts II and III are discussed. These are the fractional groove and void concept, to characterize tread pattern geometry, and a demonstration of the equivalence of wear rate for identical compounds on whole tread or multi-section tread tires.
