This study aims to analyze the financial health of PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk during the 2019–2023 period using eight financial ratios based on the Indonesian Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) Decree No. KEP-100/MBU/2002. The research employed a descriptive quantitative method with secondary data derived from annual financial reports published by the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and the company’s official website. The findings reveal that Garuda Indonesia’s financial condition fluctuated, categorized as less healthy in 2019, deteriorated into unhealthy during 2020–2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and showed limited recovery in 2022–2023, returning to the less healthy category. The main weaknesses were observed in profitability, liquidity, and solvency, while activity ratios remained relatively sound. This study highlights that Garuda’s financial problems were driven not only by external shocks from the pandemic but also by internal factors such as high debt burden and weak governance. The results are expected to contribute academically by enriching the literature on SOE financial health analysis in the post-pandemic context and provide practical implications for management, policymakers, and investors.

This study provides an in-depth analysis of the benefits of implementing a SAP-based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system for end-users at PT XY, an Indonesian airport management company. A qualitative case study approach was applied through comprehensive in-depth interviews and direct observations of accounting division staff who actively utilize the SAP Financial Accounting (FI), Controlling (CO), and Materials Management (MM) modules as part of their daily operations. The findings demonstrate that SAP implementation significantly enhances work efficiency, data accuracy, and overall operational productivity across multiple business processes. The system facilitates seamless cross-departmental integration, reduces manual errors, accelerates financial reporting, and supports real-time, data-driven decision-making. Furthermore, SAP strengthens internal coordination by providing consistent, centralized, and easily accessible information to all relevant stakeholders. Key challenges identified include limited network access, server congestion during peak hours, and difficulties with remote connections when accessing the system outside the office environment. The company addressed these issues through regular user training, provision of secure Virtual Private Network (VPN) access, expansion of server capacity, and a strategic plan to migrate to cloud-based SAP S/4HANA to improve flexibility, scalability, and long-term system reliability. The findings not only enrich the literature on ERP adoption, with practical guidance for other organizations seeking to plan, implement, and evaluate ERP systems to meet their own business needs, including effective human resource planning and change management strategies.

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.

Profitability is one of the most important indicators for assessing a company's financial performance, as reflects the extent to which management efficiently manages resources to generate profits for the company. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of working capital turnover, cash turnover, accounts receivable turnover, and inventory turnover on the profitability of mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling technique with a non-probabilistic sampling approach based on specific criteria. As a result, 36 companies qualified for this study. Data were processed using multiple linear regression analysis with SPSS version 25. The results of this study indicate that working capital turnover has a positive effect on profitability, while cash turnover has no significant effect. Meanwhile, receivable turnover has a positive effect on profitability, and inventory turnover has a negative effect on profitability. These results indicate that effective current asset management in company can increase profits, while the low contribution of cash turnover indicates that liquidity don”t always correlate with profitability, the negative impact of inventory turnover indicates the potential for decreased profits if inventory management is suboptimal.. This study confirms that working capital management has diverse impact on profitability. Working capital and accounts receivable turnover are driving factors for improved financial performance, while cash turnover does not directly impact profits, inventory turnover can negatively impact profitability if not managed effectively.

This study aims to analyze the effect of intellectual capital and profitability on firm value in manufacturing companies in the food and beverage sub-sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020-2023 period. Intellectual capital is measured using the Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC) method, which consists of three components: Value Added Capital Employed (VACA), Value Added Human Capital (VAHU), and Structural Capital Value Added (STVA). Meanwhile, profitability is proxied by Return on Assets (ROA). This study uses a quantitative approach with purposive sampling, resulting in 59 companies as research samples. After data screening and the removal of outliers, the number of observations analyzed was 138. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS software. The results of the study show that intellectual capital does not have a significant effect on firm value. This finding indicates that the management and disclosure of intellectual assets in food and beverage companies have not been able to improve investors' perception of the company’s market value. On the other hand, profitability has a positive and significant effect on firm value. This means that the higher the profitability, the higher the firm value, as reflected in investor confidence. This study emphasizes that conventional financial indicators remain the main focus of investors, while the role of intellectual capital has not yet been fully considered as a strategic resource that can directly enhance firm value.

This study aims to analyze the utilization and management of fixed assets in the form of land at the Regional Finance and Asset Agency (BKAD) of West Manggarai Regency in accordance with the regulations stipulated in Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 19 of 2016 and Regulation No. 47 of 2021. The study employs a qualitative approach using primary data obtained through direct interviews and secondary data obtained from documentation related to fixed assets. Data analysis is conducted descriptively to depict the actual conditions of land utilization and asset management in West Manggarai Regency. The results indicate that the utilization of fixed land assets has not been fully compliant with Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 19 of 2016, as there are still some vacant lands that have not been utilized. The management of fixed land assets is carried out through three main stages. First, the recording stage has been largely compliant with Regulation No. 47 of 2021, supported by the use of the Regional Government Management Information System (SIMDA) for Regional Property, which facilitates the recording process. Second, the inventory stage is not yet fully compliant because some lands lack ownership documents, such as land certificates, leaving the date and certificate number fields blank. Third, the reporting stage has been conducted in accordance with the regulations, where the Regional Property Reports are compiled hierarchically and submitted both semi-annually and annually. Based on these findings, it is recommended that BKAD West Manggarai Regency improve the utilization of vacant lands and immediately carry out registration and certification processes to ensure the legal status of the land. Further research is expected to explore the management of fixed land assets more comprehensively, including maintenance, supervision, and long-term usage planning to support optimal regional financial management.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the imprest method in petty cash management to enhance the effectiveness of daily operations at the micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) Es Iso Lego, located in Rungkut Madya, Surabaya. The research is motivated by common issues among MSMEs that still apply simple petty cash systems without fixed balances, leading to inaccurate records and weak financial control. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through direct interviews with the business owner, observation of daily operational activities, and documentation of purchase receipts and digital financial records. The findings reveal that the petty cash system at Es Iso Lego has not fully applied the imprest method principles, as the cash balance remains fluctuating and is not maintained consistently. Although each expenditure is supported by receipts, the recording process lacks systematic structure. The results imply that applying the imprest method is essential to improve efficiency, accountability, and internal control in MSME financial management. A fixed-balance petty cash system with proper documentation enables business owners to better monitor daily expenses and ensure financial transparency.

The Regional Drinking Water Company (Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum/PDAM) Lae Nciho, Dairi Regency, faces significant challenges related to the low level of financial literacy and financial behavior of its human resources, which negatively affect financial performance, particularly the Return on Equity (ROE) indicator. A lack of understanding and discipline in internal financial management has led to waste and operational inefficiency. This phenomenon highlights the importance of improving financial literacy and financial behavior as a strategic effort to enhance the company’s efficiency and profitability. The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze the influence of human resources’ financial behavior and operational efficiency on financial performance, with financial literacy serving as a moderating variable. This research applies a quantitative descriptive approach, using data analysis with the SEM PLS 3.0 method. The study involved a total population and sample of 70 employees of the Regional Drinking Water Company (Perumda Air Minum) Lae Nciho in Dairi Regency, particularly those working in finance and operations divisions, selected through purposive sampling techniques. The findings reveal that, partially, the variables of human resources’ financial behavior and operational efficiency significantly influence financial performance and affect financial literacy. Moreover, financial literacy significantly influences financial performance. However, simultaneously, financial behavior and operational efficiency do not significantly affect financial performance when moderated by financial literacy.

Unstable financial conditions in insurance companies can serve as an early indicator of potential bankruptcy, which may have wide-ranging impacts on policyholders, shareholders, and the overall stability of the financial sector. Therefore, early detection of bankruptcy risk is critically important. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Springate model in identifying potential bankruptcy among insurance companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period. The Springate model was chosen due to its simplicity and its ability to provide quantitative insights into a company's financial condition. Data were collected from the annual financial statements of 16 companies selected through purposive sampling based on the completeness and consistency of their financial reporting. The model applies the S-Score calculation as the basis for classifying companies into financial distress or non-financial distress categories. The analysis revealed that six companies consistently exhibited signs of financial difficulty, with three of them identified as being in a state of financial distress for three consecutive years. Meanwhile, the other ten companies demonstrated stable and healthy financial conditions throughout the observation period. These findings indicate that the Springate model is reasonably practical as an early detection tool for bankruptcy risk, particularly in the insurance sector, which is influenced by various internal factors such as risk management, as well as external factors like economic fluctuations and government regulations. Therefore, this model can be utilized as a decision-support tool for both management and investors in making strategic financial decisions.

This study aims to examine the effect of firm size, profitability, capital structure, and asset structure on firm value in the food and beverage subsector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2019–2023 period. This causal research employs secondary data obtained from annual reports and applies purposive sampling, resulting in 13 companies with a total of 65 observations. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted after passing classical assumption tests. The findings indicate that profitability and capital structure have a significant positive effect on firm value, while asset structure has a substantial adverse effect. Firm size shows no significant impact on firm value. These results suggest that efficiency has a greater influence on firm value in resource utilization and financial structure management than the size of assets owned. This study contributes to the corporate finance literature, particularly in the context of Indonesia’s food and beverage industry. It provides practical implications for managers and investors in making informed investment decisions.

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 rapid development of the pharmaceutical industry in Indonesia presents both an opportunity and a challenge in increasing company value amidst the dynamics of an increasingly digital and competitive capital market. This phenomenon demonstrates that strong operational performance does not always translate into high market value, making it crucial to identify internal factors that influence company value, particularly in the pharmaceutical subsector, which plays a strategic role in Indonesia.This research aims to analyze the effect of Working Capital Turnover, Cash Turnover, Liquidity, and Profit Growth on Company Value in pharmaceutical companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2021-2024 period. The research method used was quantitative with an explanatory approach. The sampling technique used total sampling, with a sample size of 10 companies. Secondary data, in the form of financial statements, were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis.The results indicate that only Cash Turnover significantly impacts company value, with a negative effect, while Working Capital Turnover, Liquidity, and Profit Growth do not. These findings suggest that efficient working capital management and consistent profit growth play a crucial role in increasing the value of pharmaceutical companies. This research is expected to be a reference for management in strategic decision making and for academics for further research.  

This study aims to analyze the financial performance differences of Bank Syariah Indonesia before and after the merger based on three key ratios: Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR), Operational Expenses to Operating Income (BOPO), and Return on Assets (ROA). A comparative quantitative approach was applied using financial statement data from the 2017–2024 period, analyzed with normality tests and paired sample t-tests. The normality test results indicate that all data are normally distributed. The paired sample t-test reveals no significant difference in the FDR ratio before and after the merger, while significant differences are found in BOPO and ROA. These findings indicate that the merger affected the efficiency and profitability of the bank, but not directly the effectiveness of fund distribution. The study implies that Bank Syariah Indonesia needs to strengthen operational efficiency and asset management post-merger. Future researchers are encouraged to include non-financial variables and apply qualitative approaches to gain more comprehensive insights.

The aim of this study is to discover effective risk management tactics, rapid incident response mechanisms, and ways to mitigate financial and reputational losses in e-business. The literature review highlights the importance of having a comprehensive risk management framework, a direct threat monitoring system, and a planned reputation recovery strategy. Research findings indicate that a proactive approach to cyber risk management not only functions to protect financial assets but also to maintain consumer trust and business continuity. Cooperation among stakeholders such as technology, management, and regulators is key in creating a cyber-resilient e-business ecosystem.

This research explores the crucial role of cybersecurity in building and maintaining digital trust for e-business sustainability. The rapid digitalization era has increased business dependence on digital platforms but also brought cyber risks that can threaten customer trust and operational sustainability. This systematic literature review analyzes recent research (2021–2025) from various academic databases including Google Scholar, IEEE Xplore, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and ACM Digital Library. The research objectives are to identify the impact of cyber incidents on customer trust, analyze digital trust-building strategies, and formulate recommendations for e-business sustainability. Study results show that cyber incidents can reduce customer trust by up to 60% and cause average financial losses of $3 million per incident. However, implementing comprehensive cybersecurity strategies, communication transparency, and rapid recovery can restore trust and enhance business resilience. The research emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach that integrates security technology, risk management, and crisis communication to build a sustainable and trusted e-business ecosystem.

This study addresses common problems in start-up businesses: lack of financial management and low presentation of financial statements due to limited human resources. With a conceptual qualitative research (CQR) approach, the research integrates accounting theory and business life cycle theory to design a process for presenting relevant financial statements for business actors who run individual operations. The main findings point to two things: first, the need for resources that understand finance is an inevitability that can be met through education, training, and induction observation; Second, the synthesis of accounting theory and business life cycle maps the conceptual area for the report presentation model that is tailored to the conditions of the beginner business. The proposed model covers the scope of management ranging from recording transactions on the cash mutation book, journaling to reveal the double impact of transactions, to grouping account balances on the ledger to produce relevant information. This process differs from the conventional accounting cycle in that it starts from the cashier function combined with the accounting function, thus reducing the need for separate specialists. The combination of cashier and accountant functions in one practical and relevant accounting flow for individual businesses, allows business owners to supervise their financial performance and position through simple but informative reports.

The agricultural sector plays a crucial role in the Indonesian economy, contributing significantly to Gross Domestic Product (GDP), employment, and national food security. Conventional financing is often poorly suited to the unique characteristics of the agricultural sector, prompting the exploration of more adaptive alternatives. Islamic banking, with its principles of fairness and risk-sharing, offers innovative financing solutions. One such contract with significant potential but underutilized is the Salam contract, a purchase-and-sell contract where payment is made upfront and goods are delivered at a later date. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of the Salam contract in depth, identify challenges and opportunities in its implementation in the Islamic agricultural sector, and formulate strategies for optimizing its application. Using a qualitative descriptive research method based on literature review and comparative analysis, this article finds that the Salam contract offers an effective financing solution for farmers' working capital needs, price risk mitigation for farmers, and supply security for buyers. Key challenges include the risk of crop failure, quality risk, moral hazard risk, and limited supporting infrastructure and market understanding. Optimizing the Salam contract can be achieved through the development of innovative contract models, strengthening risk management through takaful instrumentation, utilizing digital technology, improving Islamic financial literacy, and collaboration between stakeholders. The implications of this research are expected to provide practical guidance for Islamic financial institutions, farmers, and policymakers to create a more inclusive and sustainable Islamic agricultural financing ecosystem. With the right approach, the Salam contract has the potential to become a key instrument in Islamic agricultural financing. Its widespread implementation can drive the transformation of the agricultural sector toward a more productive and equitable direction. Sustainable efforts are needed to ensure its effective implementation in the field.

The phenomenon of tax avoidance in Indonesia remains a significant issue, one of which is the case of PT. Adaro Energy Tbk, which practiced tax avoidance through transfer pricing to its subsidiary in Singapore, Coaltrade Service International, from 2009 to 2017. Based on this phenomenon, this study aims to analyze the effect of leverage and profitability on tax avoidance with transfer pricing as a moderating variable in coal subsector energy companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2021–2023 period. This study uses descriptive analysis methods, classical assumption tests, Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA), and hypothesis testing with t-tests. The data processing tool used is SPSS version 23. The study population consisted of 45 companies, and through purposive sampling technique, 12 companies were obtained as samples with a three-year observation period, resulting in a total sample of 36 data. The results show that leverage has a positive effect on tax avoidance, while profitability has no effect on tax avoidance. Meanwhile, transfer pricing has a negative effect on tax avoidance. Interestingly, transfer pricing has been shown to strengthen the relationship between leverage and tax avoidance, as well as the relationship between profitability and tax avoidance. This finding confirms that "transfer pricing can be a significant moderating factor in corporate tax management strategies." Therefore, the results of this study contribute to understanding tax avoidance practices in the coal subsector for companies and regulators, as well as providing policy implications for tax regulations in Indonesia.

This study focuses on examining the relationship between tax planning, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax liabilities on earnings management. The research method used is quantitative with a descriptive approach. The population of the study consists of manufacturing companies in the food and beverage subsector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2022–2023. The sample comprises 47 company financial statements obtained through purposive sampling, with secondary data as the main source. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression to determine the relationship between the variables under study: tax planning, deferred tax assets, deferred tax liabilities, and earnings management. The results indicate that tax planning and deferred tax liabilities significantly affect earnings management. This suggests that companies can use tax planning strategies to influence reported earnings and manage deferred tax liabilities to achieve desired managerial objectives, such as optimizing tax payments or adjusting earnings levels. However, deferred tax assets do not show a significant impact on earnings management, which may be due to other factors not observed in this study, such as internal company policies or different approaches to managing tax assets. Simultaneously, the findings confirm that all three variables have an impact on earnings management, contributing 10.3%. The remaining 89.7% of the impact comes from other factors not covered in the scope of this research, such as macroeconomic factors, government policies, or even the varying accounting practices of different companies. These findings provide valuable insights into how tax management influences earnings management and open opportunities for further research to better understand other variables that may affect corporate earnings management practices.

This study aims to analyze the application of the full costing method in determining the cost of goods sold at a Sukoharjo Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes). The full costing method is an approach that assigns all production costs, both fixed and variable, to the product. It is expected to provide more accurate cost information than the traditional method currently used by BUMDes. This study used a qualitative descriptive approach, using a case study of a BUMDes Sukoharjo that produces traditional foods such as clorot, geblek, and lanting. Data collection techniques included interviews, observation, and documentation.The results indicate that the method currently used by BUMDes Sukoharjo does not capture all production costs, particularly equipment depreciation and other fixed overhead. Calculating the cost of goods sold using the full costing method yields a higher value than the previous method. This difference occurs because the full costing method comprehensively considers all cost elements, providing a more accurate basis for setting selling prices. By implementing the full costing method, BUMDes can improve cost management efficiency and obtain more accurate information for managerial decision-making. Furthermore, applying the full costing method enables BUMDes to better understand the impact of fixed costs on the overall profitability of their products. By factoring in all costs, including overheads and depreciation, BUMDes can make more informed decisions regarding pricing strategies and resource allocation. This method also allows for greater transparency in cost structures, which is essential for effective financial planning and budgeting. Ultimately, the full costing method will contribute to improved financial sustainability and long-term profitability for BUMDes Sukoharjo, helping them navigate challenges in the competitive market of traditional food production.
