This research uses three measurement models for financial statement quality variable. The first uses the measurement model by McNichols and Stubben (2008) that uses discretionary income measurement. Then the uses measurements by Kaznik (1999)  discretionary accruals and the last uses the measurements by Dechow and Dichev (2002) accrual working capital. In measuring the debt maturity, the researcher uses short-term debt divided by total debt. This study uses 1600 observations from Indonesian companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2012-2015.
