Tax avoidance is a crucial issue in corporate governance as it can reduce state revenue and create potential legal claims against the company itself. This study aims to explore the internal elements of firms that influence tax avoidance behaviour, with an emphasis on firm size, capital intensity, sales growth, and earnings management. The methodology employed in this research is a quantitative approach, using purposive sampling to select the companies serving as samples, and multiple linear regression analysis accompanied by classical assumption testing to ensure the reliability of the model used. The results of the analysis indicate that internal firm factors have a significant overall effect on tax avoidance. However, when examined individually, only firm size demonstrates a significant impact, while capital intensity, sales growth, and earnings management do not show a meaningful influence. These findings reaffirm that companies with larger asset bases tend to be more actively engaged in tax avoidance practices, thereby requiring tax authorities to strengthen their oversight of firms with substantial asset scales.

Pandemic-fueled global crises, geopolitical tensions, and supply chain halt have rendered a cry for resilient community-based economies. Traditional business models have proved to be weak, and context-sensitive and inclusive innovations are required. The purpose of this study is to investigate the ways in which community-based business model innovation contributes to economic resilience after crises through the identification of key features such as collective ownership, digital integration, diversification of distribution, community networks, and microfinance access. Convergent parallel mixed-method design was employed involving 300 community-based MSME respondents and 20 key informants. Surveys and interviews were employed to collect the primary data, while secondary data were obtained from national statistics, international organizations, and academic journals. By regression analysis, digital integration (β=0.352) and collective ownership (β=0.321) are significant factors in enhancing economic resilience, followed by diversification of distribution, social networking, and access to finance. The Resilience Capacity Score (RCS) further reveals that digitalization received the highest RCS, and microfinance access was lowest among the variables. Conceptually, this research takes the concept of community-based Business Model Innovation to the next level and practically recommends stronger digital infrastructure, available microfinance schemes, and capacity building at the community level.

This study aims to evaluate the influence of price perception, product quality, and brand image on purchasing decisions for Ortuseight sports shoes in Semarang City. The research is motivated by the growing competition within the local footwear industry and the evolving consumer behavior that now considers not only functional aspects but also symbolic and emotional values of products. A quantitative approach was employed, using a survey method through the distribution of questionnaires to 150 respondents who had either purchased or shown interest in Ortuseight products. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to determine the impact of each independent variable on the dependent variable. The findings reveal that price perception, product quality, and brand image all have a significant and positive effect on purchase decisions. Consumers tend to assess the balance between price and product benefits, evaluate quality based on specifications and durability, and are influenced by brand reputation when making choices. These results highlight the importance for companies to maintain a balance between pricing and quality, while also strengthening brand image—not only in terms of corporate reputation but also in how the product is perceived. This research is expected to offer strategic insights for marketing policy development and serve as a reference for future studies.

The regression model can explain 72.2% of the variation in sales volume. These findings provide strategic recommendations for company management in improving efficiency and quality to drive sales

The efficiency of investment decisions is one of the core axes in the success of organizations and the sustainability of their business, especially in light of the dynamic and complex business environment. In this context, the integrated role of both accounting and financial management systems is highlighted, as the harmony between them is a key pillar in providing accurate, real-time, and analytical data that supports the investment decision maker and reduces the degree of uncertainty and risks associated with investments. This research aims to analyze the impact of the integration between accounting systems and financial management on the quality and efficiency of investment decisions within institutions, with a focus on the nature of the causal relationship between the two variables. A conceptual model has been built that illustrates the interaction between the financial information generated by the accounting system and the analytical tools provided by the financial department, which contributes to raising the efficiency of strategic decisions related to investment. To achieve the objectives of the study, a descriptive-analytical approach supported by a standard analysis using a simple linear regression model was adopted on field data extracted from an intentional sample of financial officials in the banking and investment sector. The results showed that there is a statistically significant positive effect of the integration of accounting and financial management systems in enhancing the efficiency of investment decisions, as the model showed that integration contributes more than 50% to the explanation of changes in the quality of investment decisions. The study reached a number of important findings, the most prominent of which is that the lack of integration or poor coordination between accounting and financial management leads to delays in decisions or making them based on incomplete or contradictory information. Effective integration enables organizations to allocate resources more efficiently and evaluate investment alternatives in a thoughtful manner. The study concluded with a set of recommendations, most notably the need to develop the digital infrastructure of accounting and financial systems, adopt a unified system for data exchange, enhance the culture of teamwork between accounting and financial management units, in addition to activating the use of predictive financial analysis techniques to raise the level of accuracy in investment decisions.

This study aims to obtain empirical evidence regarding the effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosure on firm value. The research sample was obtained using purposive sampling on mining firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2023 period, with a total of 102 observations. Data analysis was conducted using panel data regression to test the proposed hypotheses. The results show that environmental disclosure has a significant positive effect on firm value, while social and governance disclosure have a significant negative effect. The theoretical implication of this study refers to agency theory, which asserts that information transparency through ESG can reduce information asymmetry between management and shareholders. However, if disclosure is carried out merely as a formality or symbolic practice, it may instead generate agency costs that are detrimental to the firm. In addition, these findings are also relevant to signaling theory, in which environmental disclosure can serve as a positive signal of a firm’s commitment to sustainability practices, thereby enhancing investor trust and strengthening the firm’s reputation. Practically, this study contributes to providing a more comprehensive understanding for firms, management, investors, and other stakeholders, while also serving as a reference for future research on ESG and firm value.

The progressive dynamics of the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) encourage accurate and optimized financial statement audits. Every listed company is required to prepare financial statements in accordance with accounting standards and have them verified by independent auditors registered with the capital market authority. Auditing for publicly listed companies demands high responsibility, motivating firms to improve professional standards, including maintaining timeliness in audit reporting. One of the sectors under focus is the oil, gas, and coal subsector, where some companies experience delays in financial reporting, known as audit delay. Factors influencing these delays include firm size and solvency. This study aims to analyze the effect of firm size and solvency on audit delay in companies within the oil, gas, and coal subsector listed on the IDX from 2021 to 2024. The study sample consists of 13 companies meeting the research criteria during this period. Purposive sampling was employed, and data were analyzed using classical assumption tests and multiple linear regression with SPSS version 27. Results indicate that firm size has a significant negative effect on audit delay, while solvency does not have a significant partial effect. Simultaneously, firm size and solvency significantly influence audit delay, suggesting that both variables collectively affect the timeliness of financial statement submission.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the distribution of Zakat, Infak, and Sadaqah (ZIS) funds, economic growth, unemployment rate, and Regional Original Revenue (PAD) on the poverty rate in West Sumatra Province during the period 2020–2024. The data used are secondary data obtained from BAZNAS, BPS, and the Directorate General of Fiscal Balance (DJPK), covering 12 regencies/cities in West Sumatra Province.

This study aims to determine the influence of Organizational Culture (X1), Work Climate (X2), and Work Discipline (X3) on Employee Job Satisfaction (Y) at a company with 52 employees as respondents. The sampling technique used was non-probability sampling with a saturated sample method, meaning all members of the population were included in the sample. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire based on a Likert scale and then analyzed using SPSS version 25. The research employed a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis to examine the relationships between the variables. The results showed that both organizational culture and work discipline had a significant and positive effect on employee job satisfaction. A strong organizational culture contributes to a shared vision, values, and sense of belonging, which enhances job satisfaction. Work discipline, on the other hand, ensures employees meet performance expectations and follow organizational rules, which promotes a stable and productive work environment. Although the work climate variable did not show as strong an influence as the other two, it still plays an important role in shaping employee perceptions and comfort in the workplace. Overall, the findings suggest that improving organizational culture and reinforcing work discipline are effective strategies for enhancing employee job satisfaction, while maintaining a supportive work climate can further support this effort.

This study aims to examine the effect of financial ratios on financial distress in transportation and logistics sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2024 period. The research employed a documentation method by collecting secondary data from the companies’ financial statements within the observed period. The financial ratios analyzed include profitability, liquidity, leverage, and activity. The level of financial distress was measured using the Altman Z-Score method. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling technique, consisting of 22 companies observed over six years. Data analysis was conducted using panel data regression with the assistance of EViews 12, with the selected model being the Fixed Effect Model (FEM). The partial test results indicate that profitability, liquidity, leverage, and activity ratios do not have a significant effect on financial distress. However, the simultaneous test results show that the four variables together significantly affect financial distress. These findings suggest that financial ratios cannot serve as a single indicator in assessing a company’s financial distress. Nevertheless, when used collectively and combined with the Altman Z-Score measurement, they can provide a more accurate assessment of a company’s financial distress condition.
