ABSTRACT: Quality earnings are earnings which may reflect the continuation of future earnings, which is determined by the components of accruals and cash flows. Book-tax differences may represent the management discretion in the accrual process to assess the quality of earnings. Persistence of earnings is one component of the predictive value of earnings and  also  the  element  of  relevance  that  some  information  in  the  book-tax  differences  may  affect  the  persistence  of earnings. This study aims to examine the effect of large book-tax differences on the persistence of earnings, accruals and  cash  flows  compared  to  firms  with  small  book-tax  differences  and  earnings  persistence  effect  on  investor expectations especially for the persistence of accruals on each sub-sample of book-tax differences. Object of study is a manufacturing  company  listed  on  the  Stock  Exchange  in  2008-2009  with  a  sample  of  37  manufacturing  companies selected  by  purposive  sampling  technique.  The  results  showed  firms  with  large  negative  book-tax  differences  have persistence  of  the  accrual  component  of  earnings  that  are  not  much  different  from  the  firms  with  small  book-tax differences and not proven that the stock price could reflect the persistence of earnings, accruals and cash flows but investors  tend  to  be pessimistic  about  the current earnings  in  relation  to  future earnings  in  other  words,  earnings is considered to have low persistence for all sub-sample of book-tax differences.
