This study aims to examine the effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosure, Return on Assets (ROA), and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) on tax avoidance in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2024 period. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from annual reports and sustainability reports. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling technique, resulting in 112 observations. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using Stata 16 software. The empirical results indicate that ESG, ROA, and ERP simultaneously have no significant effect on tax avoidance. Partially, each independent variable also shows no significant influence. These findings suggest that ESG implementation and ERP adoption have not directly affected corporate tax behavior, while profitability is not a primary determinant of tax avoidance in the energy sector. This study contributes to the existing literature by incorporating ERP as a novel variable in tax avoidance research, providing additional insight into the role of integrated information systems in corporate taxation practices.

This study aims to evaluate the effects of profitability, leverage, liquidity, and cash-flow shocks on the financial distress of companies in the hotel, restaurant, and tourism subsector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2021 to 2024. The research approach employed is quantitative, using logistic regression analysis. The data analyzed are secondary data obtained from the annual financial statements of the respective companies. The results of the study indicate that, simultaneously, the four independent variables significantly influence financial distress. However, based on partial testing, each variable, namely Return on Assets (ROA), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Current Ratio (CR), and cash flow shock, does not show a significant relationship with financial distress. These findings imply that the risk of financial distress in this industry cannot be explained solely through a single financial indicator; instead, a more holistic approach is required. This study provides essential contributions to both management and investors in assessing companies' financial condition and formulating appropriate strategic decisions.

This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability, leverage, and liquidity on firm value in food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2020–2024 period. Profitability is measured by Return On Assets (ROA), leverage by Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and liquidity by Current Ratio (CR), while firm value is proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV). The study employs a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis. The sample consists of 25 companies selected through purposive sampling, with a total of 125 secondary data observations obtained from annual financial statements. The results indicate that, partially, profitability, financial risk, and liquidity have a positive and significant effect on firm value. Simultaneously, the three independent variables also significantly affect firm value, with an adjusted R² of 43.4%, meaning that 56.6% of the variation in firm value is explained by other factors outside the model. These findings support agency theory and signaling theory, which suggest that strong financial performance, optimal debt management, and adequate liquidity provide positive signals to investors, thereby enhancing firm value.

This research investigates the Peak Particle Velocity (PPV) resulting from blasting operations at Pit Pinang, PT Bukit Baiduri Energi, employing two prediction approaches: Non-Linear Geometric Regression and the USBM Oriard’s Formula. Ground vibration measurements were recorded over a one-month period, from October 9 to November 8, 2025. The findings indicate that the non-linear regression model achieves a higher predictive accuracy of 78.62%, outperforming the USBM Oriard’s Formula, which reaches 68.2%. Variations between the observed and estimated PPV values were affected by factors such as the location of geophones, differences in explosive charges, and alterations in borehole depths. In addition, the study evaluates optimal explosive charge recommendations in accordance with SNI 7571:2010 standards to mitigate potential structural damage in surrounding areas. By highlighting these predictive discrepancies and providing practical guidance on charge management, the research offers valuable insights for improving blasting safety and minimizing vibration impacts on nearby infrastructure. The comparison of methods emphasizes the importance of selecting appropriate prediction models to ensure both operational efficiency and environmental safety.

This study aims to analyze the influence of financial knowledge, financial attitudes, and self-control on personal financial management among students of the Management Study Program at the Faculty of Economics, Universitas Kristen Indonesia Toraja, class of 2022. The research uses a quantitative approach, distributing questionnaires to 83 respondents selected through the Slovin formula. The data is analyzed using multiple linear regression, as well as validity, reliability, classical assumption, and hypothesis testing. The results show that financial knowledge has a positive and significant effect on personal financial management, while financial attitudes and self-control do not have a significant partial effect. However, simultaneously, the three independent variables have a significant impact on the students' personal financial management. These findings suggest that students' personal financial management is influenced by a combination of financial understanding, attitudes toward money management, and the ability to control their financial behavior. This indicates the importance of enhancing financial knowledge as a key factor in improving personal financial management among students, while attitudes and self-control need further attention to achieve better financial management.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the price of packaged cooking oil and bulk cooking oil on the elasticity of demand as one of the staple foods in Ciawitali Market, Garut Regency. The approach used is a quantitative descriptive method with a focus on associative analysis. Data were collected through observation and interviews in the period of September and October 2025. Then processed using simple linear regression analysis and demand elasticity analysis. The results show that the demand for both types of cooking oil is strongly influenced by price. For packaged cooking oil, it shows that 81.6% of the variation is influenced by price while the rest is influenced by other factors. For bulk cooking oil, it shows that 94.1% is influenced by price with an elasticity value of -6.346, which also shows elastic properties but lower than packaged oil which has an elasticity of -22.15. These results indicate that the increase in the price of packaged and bulk oil significantly reduces the amount of demand, with the greatest effect occurring on packaged oil because consumers tend to switch to more economical bulk oil.

This study aims to analyze and compare the price responsiveness of broiler chicken meat and native chicken meat in relation to household consumption patterns in Tarogong Kidul District, Garut Regency. A quantitative approach was employed using simple linear regression analysis based on primary data obtained through observations and interviews conducted in traditional markets. The analysis examines the extent to which price changes influence the demand for both commodities. The results indicate that broiler chicken shows a very strong relationship between price and demand, reflected in an R² value of 0.963. Statistical testing further demonstrates that price has a significant effect on broiler chicken demand (0.018 < 0.05), indicating that its demand is elastic and highly sensitive to price fluctuations. In contrast, native chicken shows an R² value of 0.698 and an insignificant price effect on demand (0.164 > 0.05), suggesting inelastic demand that remains relatively stable despite price changes. These findings reveal that consumers adjust their broiler purchase quantities more quickly in response to price changes, whereas native chicken consumption is more strongly influenced by taste preferences and habitual factors. The study concludes that there is a clear difference in price sensitivity between the two types of chicken. The implications of this research include the need for government price stabilization policies for broiler chicken to maintain household affordability, as well as quality improvement and marketing strategies for native chicken producers to strengthen competitiveness amid changing consumer demand.
