This study aims to analyze the effect of education level on the quality of financial statements based on SAK EMKM, with accounting information systems as a moderating variable, focusing on coffee shop micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Kediri City, Indonesia. A quantitative approach was employed using primary data collected through structured questionnaires distributed to 32 business owners or financial managers selected by purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with SPSS software.The results indicate that education level has a positive and significant effect on the quality of financial statements, suggesting that higher educational attainment enhances accounting understanding and compliance with SAK EMKM. However, accounting information systems were found to weaken this relationship, indicating that system complexity, limited digital literacy, and insufficient technical training may reduce the effectiveness of education in improving financial reporting quality. These findings highlight that improving financial reporting quality among MSMEs requires not only higher educational capacity but also appropriate technological support and continuous technical assistance. This study contributes to the accounting literature by emphasizing the contextual role of accounting information systems in shaping the relationship between human capital and financial reporting quality in MSMEs.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the sustainability of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), including those in Lapadde Subdistrict, Parepare City. This study aims to identify the recovery strategies implemented by MSME actors during the 2022–2025 period, as well as the factors that support and hinder the recovery process. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with the study conducted in Lapadde Subdistrict on December 1, 2025. The sample consisted of five MSME actors selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and were then analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing techniques. The findings indicate that MSME actors have implemented recovery strategies such as product diversification, utilization of digital media, and cost efficiency, supported by local government programs. The main obstacles include limited capital and low digital literacy. Overall, MSME recovery is progressing positively but still requires continuous assistance and more equitable access to information to ensure sustainability.

This study aims to analyze and evaluate the health level of PT Bank Mega Tbk during the 2016–2023 period using the Risk-Based Bank Rating (RGEC) method. This research employs a quantitative descriptive approach with an evaluative design. The data used are secondary data obtained from audited annual financial statements published by PT Bank Mega Tbk and the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The analytical method refers to regulatory provisions by Bank Indonesia and the Financial Services Authority, covering four assessment factors: Risk Profile (measured by Non-Performing Loan and Loan to Deposit Ratio), Good Corporate Governance (based on self-assessment reports), Earnings (measured by Return on Assets, Return on Equity, BOPO, and Net Interest Margin), and Capital (measured by Capital Adequacy Ratio). Each indicator is assessed according to regulatory criteria and integrated to determine the Composite Rating (PK). The results show that PT Bank Mega Tbk consistently achieved Composite Rating 1 (PK-1), categorized as “Very Healthy,” throughout the observation period. The Risk Profile, Capital, and most Earnings indicators demonstrate strong and stable performance, while Good Corporate Governance remains consistently in the “Healthy” category. However, the Return on Equity indicator shows relatively lower performance compared to other profitability ratios, indicating the need for more optimal utilization of equity. Overall, the findings confirm the bank’s strong financial resilience while highlighting managerial implications related to capital efficiency.

This study aims to explore the process of digital transformation and innovative strategies adopted by micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the context of the digital economy. The research focuses on understanding how micro MSME actors adopt digital technology, the challenges they face, and the implications for business independence and competitiveness. A qualitative descriptive approach with a single case study design was employed, focusing on one micro culinary MSME in Medan City. Data were collected through in depth interviews, direct observation, and digital documentation, and analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. The findings indicate that the use of social media for marketing purposes has increased business visibility and expanded customer reach at the local level. However, digital transformation remains at an early stage, constrained by limited capital, low digital literacy, and the lack of integrated digital business systems. These results suggest that digital transformation in micro MSMEs is a gradual and context dependent process that requires strong ecosystem support to enhance sustainable business independence and competitiveness. This study contributes to the literature by providing qualitative empirical insights into digital transformation at the micro enterprise level.

This study aims to analyze the influence of profitability as proxied by Return on Equity (ROE), solvency as proxied by Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and liquidity as proxied by Current Ratio (CR) on firm value as proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV) in the Indonesian food and beverage sector. The study focuses on the 2019-2023 period, a timeframe uniquely defined by the economic disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic and its initial recovery phase. The research method employed is a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis. The sample consists of 10 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), selected through a purposive sampling technique, resulting in 50 firm-year observations. The results indicate that both partially and simultaneously, the variables of profitability, solvency, and liquidity have a significant positive influence on firm value. This finding suggests that during a period of systemic crisis, the capital market places a valuation premium on companies that can demonstrate holistic and comprehensive signals of financial health. The novelty of this research lies in its contextualization of the dynamic role of financial ratios as crucial signals amidst an unprecedented economic shock. This study provides an empirical explanation for why investors prioritized stability and resilience, thereby reconciling conflicting findings in prior literature regarding the impact of liquidity on firm value.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) and Current Ratio (CR) on Return on Assets (ROA) at PT Sido Muncul Tbk for the period 2019–2023. The research employs a quantitative associative approach using secondary data obtained from the company’s annual financial reports. The analytical method applied is multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS version 26. Prior to hypothesis testing, the model was examined using classical assumption tests, including normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and autocorrelation tests. The results show that DER has a positive and significant effect on ROA, indicating that a proportional increase in debt utilization can enhance company profitability. Similarly, CR has a positive and significant effect on ROA, implying that maintaining healthy liquidity strengthens asset efficiency. Simultaneously, DER and CR significantly influence ROA with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.887, meaning that 88.7% of profitability variation is explained by these two variables. These findings confirm that balancing capital structure and liquidity is a key determinant in improving financial performance within Indonesia’s pharmaceutical sector.

This study aims to analyze the differences in financial performance between PT Ciputra Development Tbk (CTRA) and PT Pakuwon Jati Tbk (PWON) during 2019–2023 based on liquidity, profitability, solvency, and dividend policy ratios. A quantitative approach with a descriptive-comparative method was employed. The study utilized secondary data obtained from the annual financial reports of both companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Financial ratios were analyzed, including the Current Ratio (CR), Return on Assets (ROA), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR). Data normality and homogeneity tests were conducted, followed by Independent Sample t-Test and Mann–Whitney U test using SPSS version 26 to identify statistical differences. The results indicate no significant differences between CTRA and PWON in CR, ROA, and DPR, but a significant difference in DER, where CTRA shows higher leverage compared to PWON. These findings suggest that the key distinction between the two companies lies in their capital structure rather than profitability or dividend policy, reflecting different financial management strategies within Indonesia’s property sector.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Market Value Added (MVA), Price Book Value (PBV), and Total Asset Turnover (TATO) on stock prices of telecommunication subsector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2019–2023. The research employed a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis. The sample consisted of three companies, PT Telkom Indonesia Tbk, PT Indosat Tbk, and PT XL Axiata Tbk, selected through purposive sampling. The results show that MVA and PBV have a significant positive effect on stock prices, while TATO has no significant effect. Simultaneously, MVA, PBV, and TATO significantly influence stock prices with a determination coefficient of 68.3%. These findings indicate that investors place greater emphasis on value-added and market perception indicators rather than asset efficiency in making investment decisions within the telecommunication subsector. This study provides practical implications for company management to enhance value creation through innovation and strategic asset management, as well as academic contributions to enrich the literature on stock price determinants in the Indonesian capital market.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Total Asset Turnover (TATO) and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) on stock prices at PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk for the period 2014 to 2023. This research uses a quantitative approach with an associative type of research. The data used is secondary data obtained from the company's annual financial statements and the official website of the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The data analysis method used is multiple linear regression, preceded by classical assumption tests to validate the model. The results show that partially, DER has a significant effect on stock prices, while TATO does not have a significant effect. However, simultaneously, both TATO and DER have a significant influence on stock prices. This indicates that the company’s capital structure plays an important role in influencing stock value in the capital market. Therefore, it is recommended that company management be more prudent in managing debt and improving asset utilization efficiency to attract investors and maintain the company’s stock price stability in the market.

The purpose of this study is to identify the variables that affect profit growth.  Profit growth is the study's dependent variable, and premium income, claim payments, risk-based capital, and investment returns are its independent variables.  Information was gathered from insurance firms that were listed between 2019 and 2023 on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.  Ten businesses that satisfied specific requirements made up the study's sample.  To get a complete picture of the link between one variable and another, multiple linear regression analysis was employed as the study approach, with a 5% confidence level.  The factors Premium Income, Claim Payments, Risk-Based Capital, and Investment Returns all had a somewhat significant impact on Profit Growth, according to the partial test results. The factors Premium Income, Claim Payments, Risk-Based Capital, and Investment Returns all had a substantial impact on Profit Growth at the same time, according to the results of the simultaneous test.  It is anticipated that other businesses listed on the BEI will use the study's findings as a guide to focus more on financial ratios in order to boost their profits.

The results of the study show that the contribution of MSMEs to GDP is around 61.07%, employing 97% of the total number of jobs, namely MSMEs are quite important for the government and other stakeholders in supporting the role of MSMEs in inclusive and sustainable economic development.

Entrepreneurship plays a crucial role in economic growth, especially for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). One of the main factors for entrepreneurial success is the effective implementation of the marketing mix. This paper discusses the concept of the marketing mix in entrepreneurship by highlighting the 4P elements (Product, Price, Place, Promotion) which have evolved into 7P with the addition of People, Process, and Physical Evidence. The discussion includes the implementation of the marketing mix, strategies for facing business challenges, and its impact on competitiveness and business growth. This study highlights how entrepreneurs can optimize marketing elements through product innovation, value-based pricing strategies, the use of digitalization in distribution, as well as social media-based promotion and marketing technology. Additionally, this paper reviews various challenges in the implementation of the marketing mix, such as limited capital, intense competition, and changes in consumer behavior, as well as adaptation strategies through guerrilla marketing, strategic partnerships, and data-driven approaches. The findings in this study indicate that the application of a flexible and innovative marketing mix can enhance business competitiveness and sustainability. By understanding the relationship between the marketing mix and entrepreneurship, entrepreneurs can develop more effective marketing strategies to face the ever-evolving market dynamics.

Abstrak. Kualitas ekonomi di negara-negara Asia dipengaruhi oleh berbagai faktor sosial, keamanan, dan lingkungan yang kompleks. Penelitian ini menggunakan Generalized Linear Models (GLM), yaitu regresi Poisson dan Binomial Negatif, untuk menganalisis hubungan antara variabel-variabel seperti Governance, Social Capital, Safety and Security, Living Conditions, Education, dan Natural Environment terhadap tingkat kualitas ekonomi. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa model Poisson menghadapi keterbatasan karena adanya overdispersion, yang tercermin dari nilai AIC yang tidak terdefinisi dan residual deviance yang relatif tinggi. Sebaliknya, model Binomial Negatif lebih efektif dalam menangani data dengan variansi lebih besar dari rata-rata, menghasilkan nilai residual deviance yang lebih rendah dan AIC yang lebih baik. Dalam model Binomial Negatif, variabel Social Capital terbukti signifikan dengan koefisien yang menunjukkan pengaruh positif terhadap kualitas ekonomi. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa model Binomial Negatif lebih cocok untuk memodelkan data kualitas ekonomi di kawasan Asia, dengan Social Capital sebagai variabel yang paling berpengaruh, yang akan memberikan wawasan yang berguna bagi pengambilan kebijakan untuk meningkatkan kualitas ekonomi di kawasan ini.
