Estimates Model of Factors Affecting Financial Distress: Evidence from Indonesian State-owned Enterprises

Abstract

This study as a model estimation of factors that influence the financial distress of State-Owned Enterprises. This study contributes to the gap in an earlier study using a logistic model which classifies companies with indicators one for companies experiencing financial distress and a zero for the company is not experiencing financial distress, so it is not possible to do research specifically on one group of firms, for example, companies that experience financial distress. This study uses a marginal approach in measuring financial distress that is proxy with a marginal score with a more realistic and proven mathematics and accounting calculations. For the company's management with state, companies can use these results as a reference in evaluating the achievements of past operating performance, or to formulate strategies and policies in the future of corporate planning in order to achieve the level of marginally better scores or financial distress. This study needs to be continued by using secondary data corresponding realization of audited financial statements, so the result is more realistic and relevant because it uses the data of financial statements that meet the accounting standards.
