<![CDATA[This study aims to determine the effect of Financial Leverage, Good Corporate Governance, and Firm Size on manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2020 period during the Covid-19 pandemic. This research technique uses purposive sampling so that 25 companies are obtained as research samples. The data source in this study is secondary data obtained from the sites www.idx.com and www.invesia.com in the form of annual reports (annual reports) of manufacturing companies in the consumer goods sector. The model used in this research is cross-section regression using data calculation application software, namely Eviews 10.0. The results of this study explain that financial leverage does not affect managers in carrying out earnings management practices.
