Using a quantitative method with purposive sampling technique involving 109 manufacturing industry companies with 436 observations over 4 years. The findings of this study used STATA 14 and selected the random effects model (REM), which resulted in circular economy practices and green intellectual capital impacting sustainable development. However, circular economy practices do not impact green intellectual capital. Material flow cost accounting also does not impact sustainable development or green intellectual capital, and green intellectual capital cannot mediate the relationship between circular economy practices and material flow cost accounting. However, circular economy practices and material flow cost accounting have a significant simultaneous impact on sustainable development. The implication of this research is the need for companies to efficiently and comprehensively implement these practices simultaneously in achieving sustainable development. It is hoped that this research can make a fair contribution to sustainable development efforts in the manufacturing industry and other industries</em></p> Meidah Fadjrihana Windu Mulyasari Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economic Research and Financial Accounting 2025-04-22 2025-04-22 3 3 10.55227/ijerfa.v3i3.320 Effect of corporate performance on tax planning of listed consumer goods companies in Nigeria https://ijerfa.afdifaljournal.com/index.php/ijerfa/article/view/309 <p><em>Tax planning represents an area of financial planning that assists companies and tax managers an opportunity to reduce tax liability and enhance company corporate performance.

Understanding these financial factors is crucial, as firm value reflects investor confidence and overall business sustainability. The study utilizes secondary data from the past three years' financial statements. Path analysis and the Sobel test are employed to examine both direct and mediating effects. The findings indicate that solvency positively influences capital structure but does not affect firm value, while liquidity has no significant impact on either. Profitability positively affects firm value but negatively influences capital structure. Additionally, capital structure does not mediate the relationship between liquidity and firm value or between profitability and firm value. However, it has a significant positive effect on firm value. These results suggest that while capital structure plays a role, investors also consider other factors, such as investment strategies and financial policies, when assessing firm value. The findings provide insights for businesses and investors regarding financial decision-making and firm valuation in the non-primary consumer sector.</em></p> Vira Anggraini Enggar Diah Puspa Arum Rahayu Rahayu Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economic Research and Financial Accounting 2025-04-22 2025-04-22 3 3 10.55227/ijerfa.v3i3.322 Analysis of the Influence of Pentagon Fraud on FraudAcademics of Students of the S1 Accounting Study Program, Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Jambi https://ijerfa.afdifaljournal.com/index.php/ijerfa/article/view/319 <p><em>This study aims to determine the effect of pressure, opportunity, rationalization, ability, and arrogance on academic fraud behavior of students of the Accounting Study Program, Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Jambi.
