This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability, leverage, and dividend policy on firm value in the energy sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2021–2024 period. The energy sector was selected due to its strategic role in the national economy and its contribution to the Composite Stock Price Index (IHSG). Out of 81 energy sector firms, 22 firms were obtained as samples using a purposive sampling method. Data analysis was conducted using the path analysis technique. The results show that profitability has a significant effect on firm value, while leverage has no effect. Dividend policy also has no effect on firm value, whereas profitability has no effect on dividend policy, and leverage has a significant negative effect on dividend policy. Furthermore, dividend policy is unable to mediate the relationship between profitability and leverage with firm value. These findings imply that firm value is more influenced by profitability factors than by leverage or dividend policy. The results of this study are expected to serve as a reference for firm management, investors, and policymakers in making future financial decisions.

This study aims to evaluate the financial recording system implemented by Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the culinary sector, and analyze its impact on business performance. MSMEs are a very dynamic sector and contribute significantly to the national economy, but many of them do not yet have an adequate financial recording system. Good financial recording is key in business decision making, budget planning, and profitability assessment. The population in this study were 370 culinary MSMEs in Harjosari I Village. The research sample was taken at 20%, namely 74 respondents. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method through the distribution of questionnaires to 74 culinary MSMEs in Harjosari I Village, Medan Amplas. Data analysis was carried out using simple linear regression to see the relationship between the quality of the financial recording system as an independent variable and business performance as a dependent variable. The results showed that the better the financial recording system, the better the business performance, this can be shown by the regression equation, Y = 1.395 + 0.308 + e. The research results indicate that improving accounting literacy and the use of digital technologies, such as MSME bookkeeping applications, are essential. The involvement of local governments and financial institutions is crucial in educating and facilitating digital-based bookkeeping systems for culinary MSMEs to enhance their competitiveness and business sustainability.

This study investigates the impact of liquidity and profitability on firm value at PT Nippon Indosari Corpindo Tbk over the 2017–2024 period. Liquidity is measured using the Current Ratio, while profitability is represented by Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE). Firm value is proxied by the Price to Book Value (PBV). A multiple linear regression model is employed, complemented by univariate and bivariate analyses to mitigate potential multicollinearity between ROA and ROE. The findings reveal that neither the Current Ratio nor ROA significantly affects PBV, with an R-squared value of 0.175 and an F-statistic of 0.5315 (p = 0.618). An alternative model incorporating ROE yields similar results. While the model satisfies the assumptions of residual normality (Jarque-Bera p = 0.654) and shows no indication of significant autocorrelation (Durbin-Watson = 1.458), its explanatory power remains limited. These results suggest that external factors—such as market sentiment and long-term growth expectations—may have a more substantial influence on firm value than internal financial indicators.

Net profit is an important indicator in assessing a company's financial performance because it reflects the effectiveness of management in generating profits. Several factors that influence net profit include sales, cost of goods sold, operating expenses, and other income. This study aims to analyze the influence of these factors on net profit at PT. Pesona Minuman Indonesia during the 2021–2023 period. The independent variables include sales, cost of goods sold, operating expenses, and other income, while net profit serves as the dependent variable. A quantitative approach using multiple linear regression was applied to 36 quarterly data from the company. The results show that sales, cost of goods sold, and operating expenses have a positive and significant influence on net profit, while other income has a negative and significant influence. Simultaneously, all four variables have a significant influence on the company's net profit. This finding emphasizes the importance of good management of sales and operating costs as key factors in achieving optimal profitability. Therefore, the company needs to focus on increasing sales and controlling operating costs to maximize its net profit.

This is evidenced by the t-calculated value of 3.074 > t-table 1.725 and a significant value of 0.006 < 0.05. Partially, these three variables have a significant influence on profitability in manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) with a value of (R2) of 0.682.

This study examines the influence of financial factors on the capital structure of basic chemical manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2019 to 2023. The sample selection method used is purposive sampling, with specific criteria resulting in a sample of 51 companies and a total of 255 data points. After data processing, 80 outliers were identified, reducing the final sample to 175 company data points. This research adopts a quantitative approach, utilizing multiple linear regression analysis with SPSS version 25. The findings reveal that profitability, asset structure, company size, and business risk have a significant impact on capital structure. In contrast, sales growth and dividend policy do not show a significant contribution to capital structure. Based on these findings, it is recommended that companies in the basic chemical manufacturing sector focus on improving profitability, optimizing asset structure, and managing business risks effectively to strengthen their capital structure. Additionally, company size should be considered when making financing decisions. Since sales growth and dividend policy were not significant factors, firms might prioritize internal financial management and risk control over aggressive sales expansion or dividend adjustments when aiming to optimize their capital structure. Future research could explore other potential factors or use alternative methodologies to deepen understanding in this area.

The results indicate that the optimal production combination is 2 kilograms of red ginger and 3 kilograms of tamarind turmeric, yielding a maximum profit of Rp4,600,000 per production cycle. The implementation of Linear Programming proved effective in assisting MSME owners in making efficient production decisions, thereby enhancing profitability and the sustainable use of resources.

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 research aims to examine the influence of firm size, operating capacity, and sales growth on financial distress, with profitability serving as a moderating variable. The study employs a purposive sampling technique and selects 96 companies from the primary consumer sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. The data are analyzed using multiple linear regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the assistance of SPSS version 22. The findings reveal that firm size does not have a significant impact on financial distress, indicating that larger firms do not necessarily experience lower financial risk. In contrast, operating capacity and sales growth have a significant and positive influence on financial distress, suggesting that higher capacity utilization and increased sales activities may heighten financial vulnerability. Furthermore, profitability effectively moderates the relationships between firm size, operating capacity, and sales growth with financial distress. This result highlights the vital role of profitability in strengthening a company’s financial stability and mitigating potential financial distress or bankruptcy.

The method used in this study is a quantitative approach. In this study, the data analyzed is secondary data, where the population includes all financial statements of PT Mayora Indah Tbk. The sample taken for this study is the financial statements of PT Mayora Indah Tbk in 2022-2024. The results of the analysis show that the company's liquidity ratio is in good condition with Current Ratio (CR) reaching 298.3% and Quick Ratio (QR) of 216.8%, which exceeds existing industry standards. On the solvency ratio, the Debt To Asset Ratio (DAR) was recorded at 40.3%, which is significantly higher than the industry standard of 35%, indicating a situation that is not ideal. Conversely, the Debt To Equity Ratio (DER) of 67.9% shows a positive performance, which is below the industry standard of 90%. For profitability ratios, the company recorded a Net Profit Margin (NPM) of 8.4%, Return On Assets (ROA) of 10.9%, and Return On Equity (ROE) of 18.2%, all of which are below industry standards, indicating that profitability conditions are still low

In the dynamic and competitive business environment, profitability has been recognized as a fundamental determinant of corporate sustainable growth. However, the complex relationship between profitability and sustainable growth, particularly through the mediating role of firm performance, remains understudied in emerging markets like Indonesia. This study examines the impact of profitability on corporate sustainable growth and investigates the mediating role of firm performance in this relationship among companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Using a quantitative approach with Structural Equation Modelling (SEM), this research analyses panel data from 112 companies listed on the IDX during 2018-2023, resulting in 672 observations. Profitability was measured using Return on Assets (ROA), sustainable growth using Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR), and firm performance using Tobin's Q. Data were analyzed using PLS-SEM to test both direct and mediating relationships. The findings reveal that profitability has a strong positive and significant impact on sustainable growth (β = 0.417, t = 9.328, p < 0.001), representing the highest path coefficient among all financial determinants examined. Firm performance significantly mediates the relationship between profitability and sustainable growth (indirect effect = 0.096, p < 0.001), indicating partial mediation. The model explains 47.9% of the variance in sustainable growth (R² = 0.479). Profitability emerges as the most critical financial determinant of sustainable growth in Indonesian listed companies. The study confirms that profitability influences sustainable growth both directly and indirectly through enhanced firm performance, providing dual pathways for growth enhancement. These findings have significant implications for corporate financial management and investment decision-making.

This study aims to determine the effect of interest rates and inflation on the profitability of property and real estate sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2020-2024. Profitability is measured using the Return on Assets (ROA) ratio, while interest rates refer to the BI-7 Day Reverse Repo Rate and inflation is calculated based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data from Bank Indonesia. This study uses a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis methods and classical assumption tests supported by data processing using SPSS version 27 software. The sample was selected using purposive sampling techniques with criteria of companies that consistently submit annual financial reports, do not record losses during the research period, and use the Rupiah currency. The research results indicate that partially, interest rates have a positive and significant effect on profitability, while inflation does not have a significant effect on profitability. However, simultaneously, interest rates and inflation together have a significant effect on the company's profitability. These findings are expected to serve as a strategic reference for companies in formulating financial policies to maintain profitability stability amidst macroeconomic dynamics.

The increasing demand for electrical energy and the issue of climate change are driving the utilization of renewable energy, one of which is through Solar Power Plants (PLTS). The Province of Bali targets the development of PLTS of 108.2 MW, equivalent to 8.62% of the total solar energy potential of 1,254 MW by 2025. However, land limitations pose an obstacle to the construction of large-scale PLTS. Floating solar power plant design can be a solution to this issue. By utilizing 4,955.32 m² of water surface at the Telaga Tunjung Dam, the Floating Solar Power Plant at Telaga Tunjung Dam has a potential capacity of 141.4 kWp, using 280 Trina Solar modules of type TSM-DEG18MC.20(II) (505 Wp) combined with one SG110CX inverter with a capacity of 110 kW. The annual electricity production of the floating solar power plant, based on Helioscope software, is 201.1 MWh. The economic feasibility parameters used in this study include initial investment cost, Profitability Index (PI), and Payback Period (PP). The analysis results show that the 141.4 kWp floating solar power plant project at Telaga Tunjung Dam has an initial investment value of IDR 1,248,764,582, a PI of 1.26, and a PP of 3.91 years. Therefore, this project is considered economically feasible and contributes positively to reducing CO₂ emissions.

This research is an empirical study that aims to examine the influence of a number of financial indicators on company value in the construction and building subsectors listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2023 period. The indicators analyzed include profitability, free cash flow (FCF), and leverage. This study uses a purposive sampling approach involving 9 issuers and produces 45 observation data. The analysis method used is multiple linear regression to test the relationship between independent variables and company value as measured by Price to Book Value (PBV). The results of the study show that the performance of Return on Assets (ROA) as well as the Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR) and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) ratios have a significant effect on increasing the company's value. In contrast, other indicators such as Net Profit Margin (NPM), Free Cash Flow (FCF), and Long-Term Debt to Equity Ratio (LTDtER) did not show a significant influence. These findings indicate that investors prioritize capital utilization efficiency and sound funding structures in assessing the value of a company, compared to free cash flow or net profit margins. This research provides important implications for company management and investors in formulating financial strategies that are oriented towards increasing the company's value in a sustainable manner.

This research examines the effect of current ratio and company size on profit growth in food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2015 to 2023. All companies in this sub-sector are the research population, with sample selection using purposive techniques based on certain criteria. A total of 72 observation data were analyzed using a quantitative approach through multiple linear regression. Data were obtained from the annual financial reports that have been officially published. The results of the analysis show that the current ratio does not have a significant effect on profit growth, indicating that the level of liquidity does not always contribute directly to profitability. On the other hand, company size has a significant effect, indicating that a larger operational scale and the availability of adequate resources have a positive impact on profit performance. These findings are expected to be a reference in making corporate financial decisions and considerations for further research in the field of corporate finance.

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.

Earnings management is an action that can affect the quality of a company's financial information. As the highest leader, the CEO plays a critical role in strategic decision-making, including in earnings management practices. This study aims to examine the influence of CEO characteristics—namely age, education level, and tenure—on earnings management in food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2019–2023 period. A quantitative approach is employed using secondary data from annual reports of 21 companies, with a total of 99 firm-year observations. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with leverage, profitability, and sales growth as control variables. The results show that CEO age has a negative effect on earnings management, CEO tenure has a positive effect, while CEO education level shows no significant effect. These findings indicate that the personal characteristics of CEOs influence a company’s tendency to engage in earnings management. This study provides insights for investors, management, and regulators to consider CEO attributes when assessing the risk of financial reporting manipulation.

The main issue addressed in this research concerns the importance of selecting the appropriate funding sources for companies, particularly in the Consumer Cyclicals sector, which requires substantial financing to support operational activities. This study aims to analyze the influence of profitability, company growth, and asset structure on debt policy in Consumer Cyclicals companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2023 period. The study employs purposive sampling, yielding 190 observations from companies that meet the criteria. Multiple linear regression is used as the analytical tool to examine the relationships among the variables. The results indicate that asset structure has a positive and significant effect on corporate debt policy, demonstrating that companies with a stronger asset base tend to adopt higher levels of debt financing. In contrast, profitability and company growth do not show a significant effect on debt policy, suggesting that these financial performance indicators may not be the primary determinants in the capital structure decisions for Consumer Cyclicals firms. These findings highlight the critical role of asset management in debt strategy while emphasizing that profitability and growth alone may not suffice to guide financing choices. Companies should consider the composition of assets carefully when determining their debt policies to optimize financial stability and operational efficiency.
