The analysis to measure capital structure as independent variables are short-term debt to total assets (SDTA), long-term debt to total assets (LDTA), total debt to total assets (TDTA) and total debt to total equity (TDTE). As for dependent variables, another five firm performance are return on equity (ROE), return on assets (ROA), gross profit margin (GMS), earnings per share (EPS) and price earnings (PE). Measured by total debt to total assets (TDTA), short-term debt to total assets (SDTA), and long-term debt to total assets (LDTA), the capital structure variable has substantial positive relationships with return on equity (ROE), return on assets (ROA) and critical negative relationship with gross profit margin (GPM). However, the capital structure determined by total debt to total equity (TDTE) has substantial positive relationship with return on equity (ROE) and significant negative relationship with return on assets (ROA) and gross profit margin (GPM). It also has significant influence on price earning (PE) and return on equity (ROE). Gross profit margin (GPM) are significantly influence by three independent variables which are short term debt to total assets (SDTA), total debt to total assets (TDTA) and total debt to total equity (TDTE). While return on assets (ROA) also significantly influenced to total debt to total assets (TDTA) and total debt to total equity (TDTE). Earnings per share (EPS) also significant influence by short term debt to total asset (SDTA) and total debt to total asset (TDTA). In summary, the findings show that in Malaysian plantation sector firms there is a correlation and significant influence between capital structure and corporate performance. 2021-02 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/60263/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/60263/1/60263.pdf text en public degree UiTM Cawangan Johor Faculty of Business Management Mohd Ali, Norfariza Mohamad Shafi, Roslina (Dr.)
