The dependent variable in this study is tax avoidance, while the independent variables are profitability, leverage and deferred tax expense. Data processing in this study uses multiple linear regression analysis method with the help of SPSS (Statistical Product and Service Solution) version 25.0. The analytical tools used include descriptive statistical tests; the classical assumption test consisting of: normality test, multicollinearity test, heteroscedasticity test, and autocorrelation test; hypot hesis testing consisting of: partial test (t test) and simultaneous F test; and the coefficient of determination test. The results in this study indicate that partially profitability, leverage and deferred tax expense have a positive and significant effect on tax avoidance. This is indicated by the tcount and the significance of the profitability variable of 3.338 and 0.002, while the tcount and significance of the leverage variable are 8.899 and 0.000 and the tcount and significant values of the tax avoidance variable are 3.068 and 0.004.
