Abstract
The objective of this study is to determine the effect of stock return, firm’s age, and firm’s value on leverage on the firms listed in the IDX30. The samples were taken by purposive sampling from IDX30, there were 15 samples. The study conducted found that there was no significant effect of stock return on leverage. There was a negative and significant effect of firm’s age on leverage. And there was a positive and significant relationship of firm’s value on leverage. This study also found that pecking order theory applies to the relationship between firm’s age on leverage. Signaling theory applies to the relationship of firm’s value on leverage but does not apply to the relationship between the stock return on leverage.
