This study is aimed to analyze the effect of earnings management and tax planning practices toward earning informativiveness. Earning management and tax planning are inseparable as well as book income and taxable income. Therefore, earning management may not be seen as a separate item from tax planning. earning management practice can affect taxable income as well as book income, so does tax planning. This study evidences that earning management and tax planning practices decrease earning informativeness. Meanwhile, both earning management and taxable income do not affect taxable income. Earning management and tax planning also do not affect adjusted return of companies’ stocks. Those evidences imply that not all of the financial statement users are benefited by the information content of financial statement.
