The aim of this service is to provide training on preparing household financial reports for PKK women at the Pagerluyung Village Hall, Mojokerto Regency. Pagerluyung Village Hall is located on Jl Balai Desa, Gedeg District, Mojokerto Regency. At the Pagerluyung Village Hall there is a PKK Women's organization which is expected to empower women to participate in village development. In its implementation, PKK mothers often experience problems in making monthly and annual financial reports. Meanwhile, if you have to hand over the preparation of financial reports to outside parties, it requires quite a large amount of money, whereas the PKK Women's organization is not a profit-seeking organization, so it is felt to be very difficult. Therefore, this activity aims to transfer knowledge and techniques for making simple financial reports to PKK women so that Pagerluyung PKK women can be independent in making their financial reports. The method used is in the form of delivering material and implementing financial report preparation. Apart from that, the classical method will be used with a discussion/question and answer approach starting from the planning stage, the implementation stage and ending with the evaluation stage with the aim that the material can be well received by the PKK participants.

This research examines the influence of transactional leadership and the entrepreneurial competence of school principals on the effectiveness of education financing in primary and secondary education settings. Effective education financing is essential to ensure that limited resources are allocated optimally to improve learning quality, infrastructure, and institutional sustainability. Transactional leadership—marked by clear performance standards, reward and punishment mechanisms, and strict supervision—provides a structured framework for financial accountability and goal achievement. Entrepreneurial competence, on the other hand, equips principals with the ability to recognize funding opportunities, innovate in revenue generation, and manage financial risks. The study adopts a quantitative survey design involving school principals and financial management personnel from a representative sample of public and private schools. Data were collected using validated questionnaires and analyzed through multiple regression to measure the direct and combined effects of the two independent variables on education financing effectiveness. The findings reveal that both transactional leadership and entrepreneurial competence significantly and positively affect financial effectiveness. Transactional leadership strengthens transparency and budget discipline, while entrepreneurial competence fosters diversification of funding sources and innovative financial strategies. These results highlight the strategic importance of integrating leadership development with entrepreneurial training for school principals. Strengthening these competencies not only enhances financial planning and accountability but also reduces dependence on a single funding source, supporting long-term educational sustainability. Future studies are encouraged to explore additional mediating factors such as organizational culture, technological infrastructure, and community involvement to provide a more comprehensive understanding of education financing dynamics.

This study aims to compare the results of student living cost estimates over a four-year study period using two approaches in financial mathematics, namely the discrete model and the continuous model. The background of the study is based on the need for students to manage their personal finances effectively amidst rising living costs due to inflation. The discrete model is used to predict expenses at certain time intervals, while the continuous model assumes that changes in the value of money occur continuously at all times. This study uses a quantitative descriptive-comparative method with controlled simulations on 100 student data with variations in monthly living costs between Rp2,000,000–Rp4,000,000 and a random inflation rate of 0%–20%. The data were analyzed using discrete and continuous growth formulas, then a Paired Sample t-Test was performed to determine significant differences between the two models. The results show that both models produce very similar living cost estimates with an average difference of only about 1–3% of the total four-year costs. The continuous model produces slightly higher results than the discrete model due to its exponential and continuous nature of calculations. However, the statistical test results showed a p-value > 0.05, indicating no statistically significant difference between the two. Practically, both approaches can be used equally in student financial planning, with the discrete model being more appropriate for short-term projections and the continuous model being more appropriate for long-term projections.

This study aims to examine the use of amortization schedules and the repayment fund approach in Public Housing Credit. By applying quantitative descriptive methods and a case study approach, this study simulates a mortgage with a credit ceiling of Rp163,800,000, a tenor of 15 years, and an interest rate of 5.65% for the first to fifth year and 13% for the sixth to fifteenth year. The results of the simulation show that without any additional strategies, the total interest to be paid reaches Rp138,887,134.14, which is almost equivalent to the total principal loan. However, by using a sinking fund strategy through regular savings of Rp1,000,000 every month (with an interest rate of 0.25% per month) for 5 years, the collected funds are Rp64,444,800 which significantly reduces the remaining principal loan. As a result, the total interest is reduced to Rp87,864,324.85, which means there is a savings of Rp51. 022. 809.29. Furthermore, this strategy has the potential to shorten repayment time. In conclusion, sinking funds are an effective approach to reducing interest burden and accelerating the repayment of Public Housing Loans.

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.

Financial stability plays a vital role in determining an individual’s overall well-being, and saving is considered one of the most fundamental practices for managing personal finances and preparing for future uncertainties. In many developing regions, the level of savings among employees remains relatively low, making it crucial to understand the factors that encourage or hinder saving behavior. This study aims to examine the influence of financial inclusion, lifestyle, and financial planning on the saving behavior of private sector employees in Jombang Regency, Indonesia. The research employed a quantitative approach by distributing structured questionnaires to 100 respondents who met the eligibility criteria. The participants were selected using a purposive sampling technique to ensure that only employees with sufficient financial exposure and employment stability were included. The instrument used a Likert-scale to measure perceptions and behaviors, and the data collected were analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method with the assistance of SmartPLS version 3 software. The findings reveal that financial inclusion, lifestyle, and financial planning each exert a significant and positive effect on saving behavior. Employees who have greater access to financial services and products are more likely to engage in consistent saving practices. Likewise, individuals who adopt a prudent lifestyle and maintain effective financial planning demonstrate stronger saving discipline. These results underscore the importance of integrating financial literacy and planning strategies with broader financial inclusion programs. In conclusion, promoting financial inclusion, encouraging simple and sustainable lifestyle choices, and strengthening financial planning skills can collectively enhance saving behavior among employees. This study provides valuable insights for policymakers, financial institutions, and employers seeking to foster long-term financial resilience and economic security for the workforce.

The results of this activity showed that most participants were able to understand basic accounting concepts and were able to prepare simple financial reports quite well. This was also followed by an increase in participants' awareness of the importance of neat and orderly recording of daily transactions in running a business. Furthermore, this training succeeded in motivating participants to apply what they had learned in their respective businesses independently. Although this activity was short-lived, it had a very positive impact in building a strong foundation for more orderly and transparent financial governance among MSMEs. Therefore, it is recommended that follow-up training and regular mentoring be conducted to ensure the skills acquired can be applied sustainably and improve the ability of MSMEs to manage their finances professionally. Furthermore, this activity also provided a deeper understanding of the importance of sound financial planning for those wanting to start a business.

This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy, financial technology, and financial management on the financial performance of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Gresik Regency. The background of this study is based on the importance of strengthening the financial aspects of MSMEs as a foundation in facing the challenges of competition and economic uncertainty. The method used is a quantitative approach by distributing structured questionnaires to 96 MSMEs selected through a purposive sampling technique. The collected data were then analyzed using SPSS version 26 software to examine the relationships and influences between variables. The results show that financial literacy has a positive and significant influence on the financial performance of MSMEs. This means that the higher the level of understanding of MSMEs regarding financial management, the better the financial performance achieved. Similarly, the use of financial technology has also been shown to have a significant positive effect. The use of digital financial services such as mobile banking, e-wallets, and digital bookkeeping applications can help MSMEs simplify transactions, financial recording, and access to financing, which ultimately improves efficiency and business results. Meanwhile, the financial management variable shows a moderate influence on financial performance. This indicates that financial planning, recording, and control practices in some MSMEs are still suboptimal and need to be improved to contribute more significantly to business performance. Overall, these findings underscore the importance of improving financial literacy and adopting financial technology as key strategies for strengthening MSME performance. This research provides practical recommendations for MSMEs and stakeholders to enhance their financial management capacity to encourage sustainable business growth in the digital era.

Financial reports are an important tool for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in measuring their performance and financial health. This study aims to design a simple financial reporting system that can be implemented by Big Bites, a culinary business located in Bekasi City. The method used is a qualitative descriptive approach with stages of observation, interviews, and documentation during a three-month internship (October–December 2024). The results of the study indicate that before the design, Big Bites did not have a good financial recording system and still relied on manual records. Through the design of Microsoft Excel-based financial reports that include a general journal, ledger, trial balance, income statement, statement of changes in equity, and balance sheet, MSMEs can understand their financial condition more clearly and accurately. The implementation of this system is expected to assist MSMEs in business decision-making, financial planning, and increasing business credibility.

Financing in the health sector plays an important role in ensuring the sustainability of hospital operations and the provision of quality health services. Structured and efficient financing planning contributes greatly to improving the health of the community. However, in practice, it is not uncommon to find problems due to weak financial planning, such as budget limitations that have an impact on the low quality of health services and waste due to inappropriate spending. To overcome these problems, strategic steps are needed, including through increasing funding, more accountable management and allocation of funds, and controlling service costs. Thus, the issue of health financing has a significant influence on the quality of public health and is an important part of the development of the national health system.

Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are essential for improving the quality, efficiency, and continuity of healthcare services. Despite mandates requiring full implementation of EMRs in Indonesian healthcare facilities by the end of 2023, many hospitals continue to face challenges in achieving effective adoption. This study aims to analyze the implementation of EMRs in the outpatient services of Nur Hidayah Hospital, Yogyakarta, using the 5M framework: Man, Money, Machine, Materials, and Method. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving key informants from medical records staff, registration officers, and IT personnel. The findings revealed that while the availability of staff and supporting infrastructure such as computers and software was generally adequate, limitations persisted in human resource specialization, training access, and system integration. Financial planning for EMR-related needs was done through annual budgeting (RAB), but coordination between departments remained minimal. Key challenges included slow internet connectivity, limited IT staff, and lack of specific Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for EMR usage. Overall, the EMR system has been implemented in most outpatient units, yet not all units have fully transitioned due to technical and organizational barriers. This study concludes that optimizing EMR implementation requires not only technological readiness but also organizational alignment, continuous staff development, and robust inter-departmental coordination.

The accelerated progress in technology alongside the global integration of digital trends have significantly shaped the financial behavior of Generation Z. This demographic often displays short-term financial tendencies, such as impulsive spending, the adoption of the “You Only Live Once” (YOLO) mindset, and doom spending, which often undermines long-term financial planning.

The study employed a quantitative research design using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method  with the SmartPLS 3.2.9 software. The data reveal that love of money, financial literacy, and financial attitude each have a positive and statistically significant impact on the personal financial management of Generation Z.

This community service activity aims to improve the competitiveness of MSMEs through mentoring entrepreneurs based on managerial economics. Many MSMEs have not optimally implemented managerial principles, such as financial planning, market analysis, and decision-making strategies. The managerial economic approach is used to help MSMEs understand consumer behavior, cost efficiency, and effective resource management. The implementation methods for this activity include field observation, training, interactive discussions, and direct mentoring for MSMEs in the target area. The results of this activity show an increase in participants' understanding of business management, such as the implementation of more measurable strategies to face market competition. Thus, mentoring based on managerial economics has proven effective in strengthening the foundations of entrepreneurship and increasing the competitiveness of MSMEs in a sustainable manner.

This study aims to analyze the spending patterns of students at the Faculty of Islamic Economics and Business (FEBI), State Islamic University of North Sumatra (UINSU), and to examine the implementation of personal financial planning in their daily lives. This research employs a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 40 students from various departments and semesters, selected purposively. The findings indicate that most students have high expenditures on consumption needs such as food and internet access, as well as lifestyle expenses like online shopping and entertainment.

Online gambling has increasingly become a major social issue, particularly in the context of family and marital stability. This study aims to explore and analyze the impact of online gambling addiction on marital relationships, with a focus on the causes leading to divorce. Employing a qualitative research approach, data were gathered through in-depth interviews with individuals and couples who had experienced divorce as a direct consequence of one partner’s online gambling behavior. The results of this study reveal that online gambling addiction significantly contributes to financial instability, emotional distance, repeated conflicts, and the eventual breakdown of communication and trust within the relationship. Many participants reported experiencing feelings of betrayal, frustration, and emotional exhaustion due to the compulsive gambling behavior of their partners. In several cases, gambling debts resulted in the sale of family assets and prolonged financial insecurity, which further strained the relationship. Moreover, the secrecy surrounding gambling activities often led to the erosion of mutual respect and transparency between spouses. This research underscores the urgent need for public education and policy intervention to mitigate the negative effects of online gambling on families. Support systems such as counseling, rehabilitation programs, and financial planning services are crucial to help affected individuals recover and rebuild their lives. By shedding light on the destructive nature of online gambling on family dynamics, this study aims to contribute to the broader discourse on mental health, addiction, and the preservation of marital stability in the digital age.
