This research aims to examine the effect of Return on Equity (ROE), Asset Structure, and Current Ratio (CR) on Capital Structure in the company PT Mayora Indah Tbk, which is listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2015–2023. The data used in this study are secondary data obtained from the company’s annual financial reports during the research period. The research employs a quantitative approach, and the data sources are documentary in nature, focusing on publicly available financial statements.The analytical method used is multiple linear regression analysis, with data processing performed using SPSS software. This method allows the researcher to assess the impact of each independent variable on the dependent variable both partially and simultaneously. The results of the partial hypothesis testing indicate that the Return on Equity (ROE) variable has a positive and significant effect on Capital Structure, suggesting that higher profitability encourages the company to utilize more debt financing. On the other hand, the Asset Structure variable shows no significant negative effect on Capital Structure, indicating that the proportion of fixed assets does not play a decisive role in influencing capital structure in this case. Meanwhile, the Current Ratio (CR) has a negative and significant effect, implying that companies with higher liquidity tend to rely less on external debt. Simultaneously, the three variables—ROE, Asset Structure, and CR—have a significant influence on Capital Structure. These findings can serve as a reference for corporate financial management in optimizing capital structure decisions.

Profit growth serves as a primary benchmark for evaluating financial standing, particularly within the healthcare industry which demands elevated levels of efficiency and superior financial stewardship. As healthcare companies face increasingly competitive environments and high operational costs, the ability to generate sustainable profits becomes a critical determinant of long-term viability. This study aims to examine the impact of Return on Equity (ROE) and Total Asset Turnover (TATO) on the profit growth of healthcare companies registered on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2023 period. The research employed a quantitative approach using secondary data, with a sample of 10 companies selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression, supported by classical assumption testing, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²). The results revealed that ROE had a positive and partially significant effect on profit growth, while TATO showed a positive but not significant influence. However, when tested simultaneously, both variables demonstrated a significant relationship, with the model explaining 23.9% of the variance in profit growth. These findings suggest that profitability ratios, particularly ROE, play a more decisive role in determining financial performance in healthcare companies compared to activity ratios. The study highlights the importance for healthcare firms to optimize equity utilization in order to enhance sustainable profit growth and shareholder value.

This study aims to examine the effect of Return on Assets (ROA), Debt to Assets Ratio (DAR), and Total Assets on Audit Delay in food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. Audit Delay is defined as the time interval between the end of the fiscal year and the issuance date of audited financial statements by independent auditors. The timeliness of financial reporting is a crucial element for stakeholders in evaluating company performance, enhancing transparency, and supporting decision-making processes. Therefore, understanding the factors that influence audit delay is important in the context of both regulatory compliance and corporate governance. This research adopts a quantitative methodology using multiple linear regression analysis. The data used are secondary data obtained from annual financial reports published and accessible through the official IDX website. The study sample consists of 33 companies, resulting in 165 observations. After conducting outlier analysis, the final dataset comprised 83 observations. Data analysis was carried out using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 22. The results show that Return on Assets and Total Assets do not have a significant effect on Audit Delay. This indicates that profitability and company size are not the main determinants of audit timeliness in this sector. However, the Debt to Assets Ratio was found to have a relatively positive effect on Audit Delay. This finding suggests that companies with higher leverage tend to be audited more quickly, possibly because auditors and stakeholders pay greater attention to firms with higher financial risk. Thus, a company’s capital structure plays an important role in influencing the timeliness of audit completion.

This study aimed to determine and analyze the influence of financial ratios on profit changes in telecommunications companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2023 period. The financial ratios used in this study encompass four main groups: liquidity ratios, solvency ratios, activity ratios, and profitability ratios. This study employed a quantitative approach with an associative nature because it attempted to examine the relationship and influence between these financial variables on profit changes. The population in this study comprised all telecommunications companies listed on the IDX, while the sample selection was conducted using a purposive sampling technique with specific criteria, resulting in 15 eligible companies. The research data were then analyzed using panel data regression using EViews 12 software, with the best model selected being the Random Effect Model (REM). The results showed that simultaneously, liquidity, solvency, activity, and profitability ratios significantly influenced profit changes, thus concluding that the company's overall financial performance plays a significant role in determining the dynamics of profit generated. However, partial test results showed that the influence of each ratio was different. The solvency ratio has a significant negative effect on profit changes, indicating that the higher a company's debt level, the greater the risk of profit decline. Conversely, the profitability ratio has a significant positive effect, confirming that a company's ability to generate net profit is a major factor in increasing profit changes. Meanwhile, the liquidity ratio and activity ratio were not shown to have a significant effect on profit changes, indicating that short-term liquidity and operational efficiency are not sufficient to be the primary determinants in driving profit changes in the telecommunications sector.  

This study aims to determine the relationship between firm size, profitability, and debt policy on company value at PT. KMI Wire and Cable, Tbk. for the 2017–2024 period. Company value is the main focus because it reflects the company’s overall performance and can attract investor interest and perception. Firm size is measured by the natural logarithm of total assets (LN), profitability is measured by return on equity (ROE), debt policy is measured by debt-to-equity ratio (DER), and company value is measured by price-to-book value (PBV). This research employs a quantitative method using multiple linear regression analysis to examine the causal relationship between variables. The data used are secondary data in the form of quarterly financial reports of PT. KMI Wire and Cable, Tbk. during the study period. The results of the study indicate that firm size has a negative and significant effect on company value, while profitability and debt policy show a positive and significant effect. Simultaneously, firm size, profitability, and debt policy jointly have a positive and significant effect on company value. These findings highlight the importance of balancing company growth with efficient asset management and optimal capital structure to ensure long-term financial stability. Moreover, the study contributes to empirical evidence supporting Trade-Off Theory and Pecking Order Theory, showing how capital structure decisions and profitability management can shape investor perception and firm valuation. This study provides practical insights for management in designing strategies to optimize capital structure, strengthen profitability, and manage debt responsibly to enhance firm value and investor confidence.

This study aims to analyze the profitability and operational efficiency of Sube Huter credit union. Profitability is measured by the Net Profit Margin (NPM) ratio, while operational efficiency is measured using the Operating Cost to Operating Income ratio and several other indicators related to operational costs. The data utilized in this research consist of secondary data from Sube Huter's credit union financial reports for the period 2020 to 2024. The analysis was conducted employing the financial ratio method to assess the cooperative's profitability and operational efficiency. The results indicate that the cooperative's profitability falls into the unhealthy category with a consistent NPM of 2%, while operational efficiency is categorized as less healthy with a Operating Costs to Operating Income value approaching 97-98%. The primary cause of low efficiency is high operational costs, particularly employee salary expenses that are not commensurate with revenue. However, the indicator of operating costs to total receivables still demonstrates healthy performance. This study recommends the implementation of more effective cost management, financial product development, and increased transaction volume to enhance the cooperative's profitability and operational efficiency.

The research aim was to examine the regional financial performance of the Local Government of Sikka Regency. This research employed a descriptive quantitative method. The population of this study consisted of Budget Realization Reports (APBD) of the Local Government of Sikka Regency, with the sample covering five fiscal years from 2019 to 2023. Data were collected through documentation. The financial performance of the Local Government of Sikka Regency, as measured by the independence ratio, was categorized as very low with an instructive relationship pattern, where the role of the central government was more dominant than the independence of the local government. The effectiveness of the regional financial performance of Sikka Regency in 2019 – 2023 had an average of 85,90%, which fell into the less effective category. The allocation of funds in Sikka Regency was still unbalanced, as most of the APBD was allocated to operational expenditures with an average of 68,48%, while capital expenditures accounted for only an average of 13,4%. The revenue growth of the Sikka Regency Government from 2019 to 2023 tended to fluctuate, which occurred due to the suboptimal revenue received by the local government

This study aims to analyze the influence of Gross Profit Margin (GPM) and Inventory Turnover Ratio (ITR) on profit growth at PT Gudang Garam Tbk during the period 2014–2024. The research employs a quantitative method with a descriptive approach and utilizes multiple linear regression analysis. Data were gathered from financial report documentation and a literature study. The F-test results indicate that GPM and ITR, when considered together, have no significant effect on profit growth, with an F-statistic value of 1.065, which is lower than the F-table value of 5.318, and a significance value of 0.389 > 0.05. Furthermore, the t-test results reveal that GPM (t-statistic 1.122; p = 0.295) and ITR (t-statistic 0.160; p = 0.877) do not have a significant partial effect on profit growth, as the significance values of both variables are higher than 0.05. The findings suggest that GPM and ITR are not the primary factors influencing the company's profit growth. Therefore, it is recommended that external factors such as market conditions, industry trends, and economic variables should be considered more carefully in managerial decision-making. This study contributes to the understanding of financial performance analysis, providing insights for both academics and practitioners in the field of corporate finance.

This study aims to analyze the influence of financial technology, risk tolerance, return expectation, and financial literacy on student investment decisions, with a specific focus on students of the Faculty of Economics and Business, Budi Luhur University, Jakarta. The increasing growth of young investors in Indonesia, particularly from Generation Z, emphasizes the urgency of understanding the behavioral and technological factors that shape their financial decision-making. The research employed a quantitative approach using purposive sampling by distributing online questionnaires to 100 executive class students, calculated using Slovin’s formula. Data collection was supported by literature reviews and documentation, while analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with the help of SPSS version 26 and Microsoft Excel 2019. The results reveal that financial technology, return expectation, and financial literacy each have a positive and significant effect on student investment decisions. In contrast, risk tolerance shows a significant negative effect, suggesting that higher risk tolerance does not necessarily translate into better decision-making among students. These findings highlight the complex interplay of behavioral and cognitive factors in shaping investment choices. The study contributes to the field of behavioral finance and provides practical implications for financial education, suggesting the need for stronger integration of financial literacy programs and responsible fintech usage among young investors. In conclusion, enhancing financial knowledge and aligning return expectations are critical strategies to improve rational investment behavior in the digital era.

This study aims to analyze the influence of liquidity (Current Ratio / CR), profitability (Return on Equity / ROE), and systematic risk (Beta) on stock returns in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2021–2024. The research method used is quantitative with an associative approach. Samples were selected using purposive sampling techniques, resulting in 20 companies with a total of 80 observations. Data analysis was carried out through descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t tests, F tests, and determination coefficient (R²) tests. The results of the study show that partially, liquidity and systematic risk do not have a significant influence on stock returns. On the other hand, profitability (ROE) has been shown to have a significant positive effect on stock returns. Simultaneously, all three independent variables—liquidity, profitability, and systematic risk—affect stock returns, although the dominant contribution comes from profitability. These findings indicate that investors need to pay more attention to profitability indicators in assessing potential stock returns, especially in the energy sector which has characteristics of volatility and dependence on external factors. This research provides practical implications for investors and financial managers in formulating more measurable investment strategies, as well as encouraging the strengthening of fundamental analysis as a basis for investment decision-making in the Indonesian capital market.

The cosmetic and household goods industry in Indonesia continues to experience growth in line with increasing consumer demand and lifestyle changes. This sector plays an important role in supporting the national economy, but it is also vulnerable to fluctuations in market dynamics, global competition, and external challenges that may affect companies’ financial performance. The performance of these companies can be assessed through financial indicators, particularly profitability and solvency, which are often linked to firm value. This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability and solvency on firm value in the cosmetic and household goods subsector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2019–2023. The research population consists of 11 companies, with 6 companies selected as the sample using purposive sampling techniques based on specific criteria. The data used are secondary data derived from financial statements obtained from the official IDX website (www.idx.co.id). The analytical method applied is quantitative with several statistical tests, including classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-test, and F-test, assisted by SPSS version 22. The research findings indicate that profitability, proxied by Return on Assets (ROA), has a positive and significant partial effect on firm value (t-value 3.132 > t-table 2.04841). Solvency, proxied by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), also shows a positive and significant partial effect on firm value (t-value 5.810 > t-table 2.04841). Moreover, both profitability and solvency simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on firm value (F-value 86.997 > F-table 3.35). These results suggest that maintaining profitability and managing solvency effectively are key strategies for companies in enhancing firm value in a competitive market environment.

This study aims to analyze the bankruptcy prediction of PT Matahari Department Store Tbk using the Zmijewski method. The Zmijewski method, developed in 1984, is one of the most widely used approaches to predict corporate financial distress through the use of financial ratios. The study covers the period from 2019 to 2023 and applies a quantitative research design. The data used in this study are secondary data obtained from the company’s financial reports. Data collection techniques include documentation and literature study, while the data analysis technique applied is the Zmijewski model, which employs three main ratios: return on assets (X1), debt to assets ratio (X2), and current ratio (X3). The results show that in 2019, 2021, and 2022, the X values were -1.92, -0.29, and -0.25, respectively, indicating that PT Matahari Department Store was not predicted to face potential bankruptcy, as the values were below 0. However, in 2020 and 2023, the X values were 1.51 and 0.85, respectively, suggesting that the company had the potential to go bankrupt, as the results exceeded 0. These findings highlight the financial fluctuations experienced by PT Matahari Department Store during the study period, emphasizing the importance of continuous financial performance evaluation and the use of bankruptcy prediction models as an early warning tool for stakeholders and decision makers.

Stock returns represent a crucial parameter that serves as a reference for investors in evaluating company performance. A decline in returns has occurred in several mining companies listed on the IDX, despite the sector’s vital role in the national economy. This study aims to examine the effect of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Firm Size on the stock returns of mining companies listed on the IDX during the 2022–2024 period. The sample was determined using purposive sampling, resulting in 56 observational data after outliers were removed. To meet the assumptions of classical tests, several variables were transformed using natural logarithms, and data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that CSR, ROE, and Firm Size have no significant effect on stock returns, whereas ROA and DER show a significant positive effect. These findings suggest that investors tend to emphasize financial fundamentals, particularly profitability and capital structure, rather than non-financial aspects such as CSR activities. The implication for companies is the need to enhance operational efficiency and optimize financial structures to attract investors and improve returns. Future researchers are encouraged to incorporate external variables such as global commodity prices, market risk, and macroeconomic indicators, as well as expand the observation period and apply more diverse methodological approaches to provide a more comprehensive understanding of stock return dynamics in the mining sector.

This research aims to determine the effect of the Current Ratio, Debt to Equity Ratio, Net Profit Margin, and Total Asset Turnover on Return On Assets (ROA) in manufacturing companies within the Industrial Machinery and Heavy Equipment sub-sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2018 – 2024. The study utilized secondary data in the form of annual financial statements from 9 companies in the machinery and heavy equipment sub-sector. These companies were selected using the purposive sampling technique based on specific criteria. The research applied a multiple linear regression model, with data processed using IBM SPSS version 25. The findings show that, partially, the Current Ratio has a positive and significant effect on Return On Assets, indicating that better liquidity management improves asset returns. The Debt to Equity Ratio, however, showed no significant impact on Return On Assets, suggesting that financial leverage does not strongly influence the return generated from assets in these companies. The Net Profit Margin was found to have a positive and significant effect on Return On Assets, meaning that higher profitability directly enhances asset performance. Similarly, Total Asset Turnover has a positive and significant impact on Return On Assets, indicating that efficient asset utilization leads to higher returns. The study highlights key financial indicators for improving asset returns in manufacturing companies within the sub-sector.

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.

This study also highlights the importance of education and training for farmers to improve their technical skills in farming and managing their farms. Training in the use of modern agricultural technologies, such as automated fertilizing tools and efficient irrigation systems, can help farmers reduce production costs and increase yields. Furthermore, training in digital marketing can help farmers market their products more effectively through online platforms, reducing reliance on intermediaries and increasing profit margins. Furthermore, it is crucial for the government to provide support in the form of extension services and easy access to business capital. More accessible capital will enable farmers to invest in more efficient equipment and more environmentally friendly organic fertilizers. Targeted microcredit distribution to farmer groups can also accelerate the adoption of new, more productive agricultural technologies. The adoption of sustainable and environmentally friendly agricultural practices should be a long-term focus to ensure the registration of shallot farming businesses. Farmers need to be incentivized to use organic fertilizers and natural pesticides that are safer for the soil and air. Furthermore, the implementation of integrated and environmentally friendly farming systems such as agroforestry can also be an alternative to increase agricultural yields without damaging the environment. With improvements in education, training, access to capital, and the adoption of more efficient technology, shallot farming in Pasir Village can develop better and become more sustainable in the future. Furthermore, collaboration between farmer groups and local research institutions and universities can also be key to introducing new agricultural innovations.

This study examines the comparative profitability of PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk before and during the boycott issue that emerged as part of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement in 2023. Profitability was selected as the focus because it is a key financial performance indicator that reflects the company’s ability to generate returns under changing social and economic pressures. The research aims to evaluate differences in financial performance using three indicators: Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and Net Profit Margin (NPM) across two periods, namely before the boycott (2021–2022) and during the boycott (2023–2024). Employing a quantitative descriptive-comparative approach, the study analyzed financial ratios and applied the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The findings reveal a decline in ROA from 30.20% (2021) and 29.29% (2022) to 28.81% (2023) and 20.99% (2024), as well as a drop in NPM from 14.56% and 13.02% to 12.49% and 9.59% during the boycott period. Conversely, ROE increased to 156.74% in 2024, largely driven by a sharper decline in equity compared to net profit. Nevertheless, statistical testing indicates no significant difference in profitability between the two periods. These results suggest that while profitability trends weakened, the boycott had no statistically significant impact, implying that investor and consumer responses were not strong or sustained enough to materially affect financial performance.

This study aims to analyze the influence of liquidity, leverage, profitability, and company size on the share prices of companies that are members of the Investor33 index on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2023 period. This study uses a quantitative approach with purposive sampling techniques, so that 17 companies out of a total of 46 companies that meet the criteria are obtained. The data used is secondary data in the form of annual financial statements obtained from the IDX's official website. The analysis method used was multiple linear regression with the help of the Statistical Program for Social Science (SPSS) software version 25. The results of the analysis show that the leverage and profitability variables have a significant effect on the stock price, which indicates that the company's capital structure and ability to generate profits are important factors in the investor's assessment. In contrast, the liquidity variables and company size do not show a significant influence on the stock price, which means that the company's ability to meet short-term obligations and operational scale are not the main determinants in the formation of the stock price on the index. These findings provide implications for investors and company management to pay more attention to profitability and leverage aspects in financial strategies and investment decision-making. This research can also be a reference for further studies related to the analysis of financial ratios and capital market dynamics in Indonesia.
