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.

Financial literacy is a fundamental skill that should be introduced from an early age to shape wise financial behavior. Elementary school students need to understand basic financial concepts to recognize the value of money, distinguish between needs and wants, and develop saving habits. However, many children still lack adequate financial literacy. This activity aims to improve financial literacy among elementary school students through a saving habituation strategy at SD Negeri 040530 Bunuraya, Bunuraya Village, Tigapanah District, Karo Regency, North Sumatra Province, Indonesia. The methods used included observation, teacher interviews, financial literacy socialization, and hands-on assistance in saving activities. The strategies implemented involved simple financial education, pocket money management simulations, creating piggy banks, and conducting regular saving programs at school. The results showed an improvement in students’ understanding of money functions, the importance of saving, and positive changes in financial behavior. Students became more accustomed to setting aside their pocket money and demonstrated more frugal and responsible attitudes. This activity indicates that consistent and structured saving habituation can be an effective strategy for improving children’s financial literacy from an early age.

This study aims to analyze the feasibility of implementing Solar-Powered Street Lighting (PJUTS) as an alternative lighting solution in Campus C of UNINDRA PGRI. The background of this research is driven by the high operational electricity costs of the existing conventional street lighting system and the need to transition toward clean energy. The analysis methods include a technical comparison of off-grid systems, an economic evaluation based on cost savings, and an assessment of environmental impacts. The technical analysis indicates that PJUTS is highly feasible due to its ability to operate independently without reliance on the national electricity grid, thereby ensuring lighting continuity during power outages. From an economic perspective, although the initial investment (CAPEX) is higher than that of conventional street lighting, the project is considered feasible as it eliminates monthly electricity bills permanently, resulting in long-term budget efficiency and financial benefits. The Payback Period analysis shows that the initial investment can be recovered through cumulative operational cost savings. Environmentally, the implementation of PJUTS significantly contributes to carbon emission reduction and supports the Green Campus vision through the utilization of renewable energy. Overall, the transformation of the existing street lighting system into PJUTS represents a strategic and feasible initiative that fulfills effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability criteria.

This study aims to evaluate the quality of Trans Semanggi Suroboyo public transportation services with the support of the GoBis application system as a form of digital-based public service innovation in the city of Surabaya. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with the SERVQUAL (tangible, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy) theoretical approach. The data used includes secondary data from the Surabaya Transportation Office, with the number of GoBis users reaching 327,018 people, GoBis balance users 42,833 people, and saving ticket users 2,095 people. The results of the study show that the tangible and reliability dimensions are relatively good, shown through modern fleet conditions and fairly consistent departure schedules. However, in the dimensions of responsiveness, assurance, and empathy, there are still obstacles related to the speed of response of digital systems, transaction security, and limitations of users' digital literacy. The utilization of GoBis' digital transaction feature is still low compared to the total number of application users. This study concludes that the success of Trans Semanggi Suroboyo is highly dependent on the integration between the quality of physical services and the effectiveness of the digital system. It is necessary to strengthen technological infrastructure, improve data security, and digital education for the public so that the quality of smart transportation in the city of Surabaya can run optimally and sustainably according to the principles of smart mobility.

The development of automotive technology continuously seeks solutions to improve human mobility and address environmental concerns. This study focuses on the Hydrogen Reactor (HHO) technology as an alternative solution for fuel efficiency and emission reduction, specifically examining the legal protection of consumers utilizing this technology at Bengkel Karya Gemilang. The research aims to analyze the legal framework of consumer protection in the context of new energy-saving technologies and to identify the legal responsibilities of business actors (workshops) and the rights of consumers. Employing a normative legal research method with a case study approach, the study analyzes the implementation of Law No. 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection (UUPK) in the utilization of HHO reactors. The findings indicate that while the HHO reactor technology offers a potential 5-15% increase in fuel efficiency and CO emission reduction, its implementation introduces new legal challenges, particularly regarding product safety, standardization, and the obligation for periodic servicing. Consumer protection is primarily ensured through the workshop’s obligation to provide clear product explanations, guarantee product safety, and fulfill the periodic service commitment. The study concludes that the existing UUPK provides a sufficient legal basis, but its implementation requires clear and transparent agreements, especially concerning the technical specifications and long-term maintenance of the HHO reactor, to ensure consumer rights are fully protected against potential risks associated with new, non-standardized automotive technologies.

The development of Islamic finance in Indonesia shown significant growth as alternative financial system based Islamic principles. Data from Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) shows the number of Hajj savings accounts reached 5.5 million accounts as of November 2024 and increased to 6.33 million in July 2025. This growth reflects the high level of public enthusiasm in preparing for Hajj funds early on through Islamic financial institutions. In various regions of South Sumatra, BSI has become one of the institutions widely used by the public to open Hajj savings accounts due to its service network and ease of access. The village of Pagar Banyu has great potential for increasing the use of Sharia-based Hajj savings, particularly through the dissemination of information about BSI products. Through appropriate outreach activities, the public can understand wadiah contracts, the benefits of hajj savings, and the process of opening an account and registering for a hajj quota. In this context, Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) plays an important role as it is one of the largest Islamic banks. The target audience for this outreach activity is the general public in Pagar Banyu Village, Pagaralam City, South Sumatra Province. This study aims to improve Islamic financial literacy among people Pagar Banyu Village, particularly regarding Hajj savings at BSI, by providing practical understanding of how to open a Hajj savings account, requirements, procedures, and benefits, and encouraging community to start planning for pilgrimage by saving gradually and building awareness of importance of managing finances in accordance with Islamic principles.

Hajj savings are an important Islamic banking product designed to assist Muslims in preparing for hajj expenses in a systematic and Sharia-compliant manner. As a trust-based fund, hajj savings require proper accounting treatment to ensure transparency, accountability, and compliance with Sharia accounting standards. This study aims to analyze the implementation of trust fund accounting in the Hajj Savings Program at Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) KCP Tegal Slawi. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using observation, documentation, and interviews conducted during an internship period at the research location. The data were analyzed by comparing accounting practices applied by the bank with relevant Sharia accounting standards, particularly PSAK 105 and PSAK 101. The results indicate that the hajj savings at BSI KCP Tegal Slawi are managed under a mudharabah contract and are recognized as temporary syirkah funds rather than bank income. The processes of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure have generally been implemented in accordance with Sharia accounting principles. However, limitations were found in the level of accounting understanding among operational staff. This study implies that strengthening Sharia accounting literacy among bank employees is essential to enhance accountability and maintain customer trust in managing hajj funds.

This result demonstrates that effective tax planning can be a legitimate tool to reduce tax burdens while also improving the efficiency of the company’s financial management. Therefore, applying good tax planning strategies not only contributes to tax savings but also helps the company achieve more optimal financial management in compliance with applicable tax regulations.

Limited access to adequate housing remains a major challenge for low-income households in Indonesia, including in Banyumas Regency. The subsidized housing program has been implemented as a public policy instrument to improve housing affordability while enhancing social and economic welfare. This study aims to analyze the role of subsidized housing in improving housing access and the economic conditions of low-income communities in Banyumas Regency. The research adopts a qualitative approach using a documentation study method by collecting and analyzing policy documents, official government reports, scholarly journal articles, and relevant publications related to subsidized housing and the socio-economic conditions of low-income households. Data analysis was conducted through content analysis to interpret the role of subsidized housing based on indicators of housing affordability and household economic impacts. The findings indicate that subsidized housing significantly reduces the housing cost burden of low-income households from levels exceeding the affordability threshold to a more economically manageable range. The reduction in housing expenditure contributes positively to household economic stability by allowing savings and reallocation of income toward productive needs such as education, healthcare, and financial security. However, the effectiveness of subsidized housing in improving economic outcomes is still influenced by location and accessibility of housing areas. This study concludes that subsidized housing plays a crucial role in expanding housing access and improving the economic conditions of low-income communities, while requiring integrated and sustainable policy support to maximize its long-term benefits.

Savings and Loan Cooperatives (KSP) play a vital role in expanding community access to capital, especially within the informal sector. Nevertheless, non-performing loans remain a persistent challenge that can threaten liquidity and long-term institutional sustainability. KSP CU Mera Ndi Ate faces similar issues, which are assumed to stem not only from administrative weaknesses but also from members’ perceptions and behavioral factors. This research aims to examine the potential causes of non-performing loans through text-based sentiment analysis using an unsupervised learning approach. A quantitative method with a data mining framework was applied. Data were gathered through interviews, observations, documentation, and 200 customer opinion texts processed using the Orange Data Mining application. The analytical stages included preprocessing, corpus development, feature extraction, sentiment clustering, and visualization. Because the dataset lacked predefined labels, unsupervised learning was used to identify naturally emerging sentiment patterns. Findings reveal a predominance of critical sentiments related to credit assessment procedures and service quality. The highest sentiment score (75) concerned insufficient creditworthiness evaluation, followed by concerns about service efficiency (66.6667). These insights suggest that improving assessment accuracy and service quality may help reduce non-performing loans.

Urban waste management remains a major challenge in achieving a clean and sustainable environment, including in Bontoduri Sub-district, Makassar City. Waste banks, as a community-based waste management model, have significant potential to reduce waste generation while creating economic value. However, in practice, the role of waste banks has not been fully optimized due to limitations in institutional capacity, community participation, and managerial practices. This community service activity aimed to strengthen the role of waste banks in promoting a clean and economically valuable environment through participatory and community empowerment approaches. The methods employed included preparation, environmental education and socialization, waste bank management training, institutional mentoring, and activity evaluation. The program involved approximately 30 participants consisting of waste bank managers, local government representatives, and community members. The results indicated an increase in community awareness and understanding of waste segregation, improved managerial and administrative capacities of waste bank operators, and enhanced community participation in waste-saving activities. In addition, waste banks contributed to generating added economic value from household waste and reducing the volume of waste disposed of into the environment and landfills. This activity concludes that strengthening the role of waste banks through education, training, and continuous mentoring can serve as an effective strategy to support sustainable urban waste management based on circular economy principles.

The biggest challenge faced by the community, especially vulnerable and poor groups, is the cost of managing chronic diseases. Even though there is national health insurance, non-medical costs, costs arising from self-medication, and limitations on certain benefits are still often obstacles that cause high out-of-pocket expenses for the community. The high costs of curative and rehabilitative care indicate that preventive and promotive efforts must be significantly improved, and one way to support the sustainability of these efforts is through a pre-emptive health financing scheme. Community service activities are carried out using a participatory approach so that community members are actively involved in the activities. The activities are carried out in three stages, that is preparation or needs identification, implementation and evaluation. The results of the activity show that the community's knowledge increased significantly because of the community service activity. Participants who took part in the activity also successfully designed a community-based financing scheme involving health savings, whereby each member makes agreed monthly contributions. This community service project demonstrates that community empowerment through the establishment of a pre-emptive financing scheme for chronic diseases can provide an effective, sustainable solution for improving public health.
