The side technique used is purposive sampling and the valid data was 35 companies. This study uses Structural Equation Model (SEM) which was helped by Smart PLS 3.0. The results showed that institutional ownership has a positive effect on income smoothing, leverage has a positive effect on effective tax rates, profitability has a negative effect on effective tax rates, while profitability, leverage and effective tax rates has no effect on income smoothing.
