Abstract

Previous research references state that exchange rate and tax burden have a significant influence on transfer pricing. Transfer pricing is believed to have an impact during the COVID-19 pandemic, where cost escalation and constraints on intra-company movements are given more attention. This study aims to analyze the impact of exchange rate and tax burden on transfer pricing. Specifically, this research examines the comparative effects before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study utilizes panel data from manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period of 2018-2021. The sample criteria were obtained through purposive sampling, resulting in 51 sample observations. The findings of this study reveal that exchange rates significantly influence transfer pricing before COVID-19 and have no impact during COVID-19. Tax burden does not influence transfer pricing before and during COVID-19.
