Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of capital structure and firm size on firm value through profitability as an intervening variable. This study was conducted among manufacturing companies in various industrial sectors in Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2013-2017. The dependent variable was the value of the firm measured by PBV. The independent variables were the capital structure measured by DER and firm value measured by ln (total assets). Profitability as intervening variable was measured by ROA. This study used secondary data extracted from the financial statements of 17 public companies. Analysis was conducted using multiple regression of panel data, path analysis and sobel test. The results showed that firm size and capital structure had significant effect on profitability, while firm size, capital structure and profitability had significant effect on firm value. The results also showed that profitability was able to mediate the effect of firm size and capital structure on firm value.
