Therefore, investors see this as one of promising investment but Indonesia Capital Market Directory data indicates that most of wholesale and retail company is a high risk company, defined by company capital structure.

Results of analysis proved that independent variables simultaneously and partially significant influence to capital structure but it doesn’t significantt influence to value of the firm but if its through capital structure, then its partially and simultaneously significant influence to value of the firm. Its means that capital structure is proven as an intervening variable.
