This study examines the influence of earnings quality and dividend policy on firm value at PT Alkindo Naratama Tbk during the period 2014–2024. Firm value is measured using the Price to Book Value (PBV), earnings quality is proxied by the ratio of operating cash flow to net income (QOE), and dividend policy is measured using the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR). This research adopts a quantitative approach with an associative causal design using secondary data obtained from the company’s quarterly financial reports over eleven years, resulting in 44 observations. The analysis method applied is multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that earnings quality has a positive and significant impact on firm value. Dividend policy also shows a positive and significant effect on firm value. Simultaneously, earnings quality and dividend policy significantly influence firm value. The coefficient of determination indicates that a large proportion of firm value variation can be explained by these two variables. These results support signaling theory, which suggests that high earnings quality and stable dividend distribution provide positive signals to investors and increase market confidence in the company. The study contributes to financial management literature by highlighting the importance of financial performance indicators in determining firm value.

Tax is a major source of government revenue; however, tax avoidance remains a significant issue, particularly in the property and real estate sector, which is characterized by high growth and complex financial structures. This study examines the effects of leverage, profitability, and sales growth on tax avoidance, with firm size as a moderating variable. The study employs a quantitative approach, using secondary data from the annual financial statements of property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2020–2024 period. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, and the data were analyzed using panel data regression techniques. Tax avoidance is proxied by the Cash Effective Tax Rate, leverage is measured by the Debt-to-Equity Ratio, profitability is measured by Return on Assets, sales growth is calculated as the annual change in sales, and firm size is measured using the natural logarithm of total assets. The results indicate that leverage and profitability significantly affect tax avoidance, whereas sales growth does not. Firm size is found to moderate the relationship between leverage and tax avoidance as well as between profitability and tax avoidance, but it does not moderate the relationship between sales growth and tax avoidance. The novelty of this study lies in the inclusion of sales growth as an independent variable and the positioning of firm size as a moderating variable within the property and real estate sector during the post-pandemic period. These findings provide practical implications for corporate tax management strategies and offer insights for regulators in strengthening tax supervision based on firm characteristics.

People with visual impairment face barriers in cash transactions, particularly in identifying banknote denominations and verifying authenticity, which can reduce independence and increase vulnerability to fraud. This issue is also closely linked to the financial inclusion agenda, as access to reliable information on the value and authenticity of cash is a prerequisite for safe transactions among vulnerable groups. This community service program aimed to improve users’ competence through individualized, home-visit–based education and mentoring on an optical–UV sensor–based banknote denomination and authenticity detector with audio feedback. The program was implemented in collaboration with the Kebumen branches of PERTUNI and ITMI from October to December 2025. The intervention stages included an initial needs assessment, structured training using a concise module, hands-on practice through transaction scenarios, and follow-up mentoring. Evaluation employed a pre–post knowledge test, a practical performance checklist, and a usability questionnaire. Results indicated that the mean knowledge score increased from 55.1 to 80.7, and the success rate of denomination identification improved from 60.7% to 90.0%. This approach is relevant as an individualized mentoring model for blind communities when group-based training is difficult to implement.

In the digital era and free market, technology is growing rapidly. Consumers and businesses are now more inclined to use digital transactions rather than face-to-face cash transactions.

The method used in this activity is through counseling and discussion. From the results of this activity, it was concluded that Law No. 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection needs to be updated immediately as it is no longer relevant to the current digital technology, which has advanced far and is different from the conditions in 1999 when the consumer protection law was issued. The results of this activity indicate that the Consumer Protection Law No. 8 of 1999 requires comprehensive updates to accommodate the development of digital transactions, personal data protection, and consumer rights in cyberspace. Furthermore, the importance of educating consumers about their rights in digital transactions is also a key focus, so that the public can avoid losses resulting from unsafe online transactions.

Overall, the implementation of PSAK 109 has been administratively well executed, but further strengthening is required in technical and procedural aspects to ensure more optimal, consistent, and comprehensive application in accordance with sharia accounting principles.

The growth of the culinary industry requires small-scale food businesses to implement effective and efficient operational management.

Although staff performance is generally adequate, issues related to discipline and service responsiveness remain. This study recommends reintroducing digital cashier systems and establishing written SOPs to improve operational effectiveness.

Company value is an important indicator that reflects company performance and investor perceptions of future business prospects and sustainability. Various strategic decisions made by management, such as capital intensity management, investment decisions, and tax aggressiveness policies, play a significant role in shaping company value. This study aims to examine and analyze the effect of capital intensity, investment decisions, and tax aggressiveness on company value through a literature review approach. The method used is a literature review by examining various relevant national and international scientific articles obtained from academic databases such as Google Scholar, Publish or Perish, and SINTA. The results of the study show that capital intensity has a positive effect on company value because it reflects long-term production capacity and operational efficiency. Investment decisions have also been proven to have a positive effect on company value because they signal management's optimism about future growth prospects. Meanwhile, tax aggressiveness can increase company value through tax savings and increased cash flow, but it has the potential to cause reputational and governance risks if done excessively. Overall, the reviewed literature shows that these three variables have an impact on company value, with the caveat that optimal and transparent management is necessary. This study is expected to serve as a reference for further research and as a consideration for company management and investors in making strategic decisions.
