Fraudulent financial reporting is defined as fraud committed by the management of a company by providing a false picture of the financial statements, which, of course, harms investors and other related parties. This research aims to analyze the effect of fraud using the pentagon theory. The Pentagon fraud theory is measured by financial targets, financial stability, external pressure, institutional ownership, ineffective monitoring, changes in KAP, changes in directors, and the number of photos of members.
