The development of the cosmetics industry has had both positive and negative impacts on consumers, particularly in Medan City. The high demand for cosmetics has driven irresponsible business actors to produce and distribute cosmetics without distribution permits from the National Agency of Drug and Food Control (BPOM). This study aims to analyze the role of BPOM in supervising illegal cosmetics, examine criminal sanction enforcement, and identify obstacles faced by PPNS investigators at BBPOM Medan. A qualitative empirical juridical approach with field research method was used, employing in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The primary informant is the Head of BBPOM Medan. Results show BPOM supervises through pre-market and post-market control, enforcement, and public education. Criminal sanctions under Article 435 of Law No. 17 of 2023 impose up to 12 years imprisonment or Rp5 billion fine. Key obstacles include limited investigator legal expertise, budget constraints, low public participation, fleeing suspects, and files returned by prosecutors. Strengthening investigator capacity, improving inter-agency coordination, and increasing public awareness are urgently needed.

The implementation of PSAK 73, which adopted IFRS 16, brought fundamental changes to lease financial reporting, triggering various challenges for financial performance and corporate policy. The primary issue examined in this literature was the impact of lease capitalization on financial ratios, dividend policy, and potential earnings management. The overall objective of this study was to evaluate the differences in financial performance before and after the implementation of the new standard, as well as to identify the determinants of dividend policy across various sectors. The dominant method employed was a quantitative approach using comparative analysis and panel data regression on companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Key findings indicated that the implementation of PSAK 73 significantly increased total assets and liabilities (leverage), yet tended to decrease profitability ratios such as Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE). Furthermore, dividend policy was found to be significantly influenced by profitability and the new capital structure resulting from lease capitalization  

This study aims to analyze the effect of capital structure on the financial performance of banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2021–2024, with rights issues as a moderating variable. Capital structure is measured using the Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), while financial performance is proxied by Return On Assets (ROA). This study uses a quantitative approach with secondary data in the form of annual financial reports of banking companies. The sampling technique used purposive sampling, resulting in 128 research observations. The analysis methods used were multiple linear regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the help of SPSS. The results show that capital structure has a significant effect on financial performance. Rights issues also have a significant effect on financial performance. However, the moderation test results show that rights issues are unable to moderate the effect of capital structure on financial performance. These findings indicate that high leverage tends to reduce the profitability of banking companies, while the implementation of rights issues plays a greater role in strengthening capital than as a mechanism capable of strengthening the relationship between capital structure and financial performance.

This research intends to examine how the environment of a store impActs the likelihood of customers returning, specifically focusing on the experiences of patrons at Baso Malang Fortuna. The motivation behind this study stems from varying sales outcomes combined with a low propensity for consumers to come back. A quantitative research design was utilized involving survey techniques. Data was gathered by administering questionnaires to shoppers, employing a non-probability sampling approach. The analysis of the data was performed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to investigate both direct and indirect influences among the studied variables. The findings reveal that the store's atmosphere significantly and positively affects customer experience, that the store's atmosphere has a substantial positive influence on the desire to return, and that customer experience also positively and significantly influences the intention to revisit. In addition, customer experience effectively mediates the relationship between the store atmosphere and the intention to return. These results validate that an optimally maintained store atmosphere fosters enjoyable customer experiences, which in turn boosts consumers' desire to return.

In response to the evolving landscape of public healthcare services, hospitals are expected not only to maintain operational efficiency but also to adapt to the shifting needs and expectations of patients as healthcare consumers. The presence of non-BPJS patients in regional public hospitals plays a strategic role not only contributing to revenue diversification but also reflecting service quality, institutional competitiveness, and shaping public perception. The declining trend in outpatient visits by general patients at RSUD Balaraja over the past three years highlights the need to understand the factors influencing consumer behavior in determining revisit intentions. This study examines the effect of co-creation and hospital image on the revisit intention of outpatient general patients at RSUD Balaraja, with patient experience as a mediating variable. The research employed a quantitative explanatory design involving 278 outpatient general patients selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via structured questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results indicate that patient experience plays a significant mediating role in shaping revisit intention among general outpatients at RSUD Balaraja. These findings confirm that patient experience serves as a central factor in post-service evaluation processes, which ultimately drive patients’ intention to return. Therefore, hospitals need to enhance patient involvement in service processes (co-creation), improve public perception of institutional image (hospital image), and develop patient-centered service systems as a key strategy to increase revisit intention among general outpatients.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of liquidity, asset efficiency, and capital structure on profitability in pharmaceutical manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, using Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) as an investment-based profitability indicator. This research employs secondary data from the annual financial statements of pharmaceutical manufacturing companies over a specific period, with multiple linear regression analysis and robust models to ensure model feasibility. The results indicate that liquidity has no effect on profitability. Asset efficiency has a significant negative effect, reflecting the characteristics of the pharmaceutical industry with its high asset intensity. Capital structure has a significant positive effect on profitability, suggesting that measured use of debt can enhance the company’s return on investment. These findings provide theoretical contributions by enriching the literature on investment-based profitability determinants and practical implications for corporate management, investors, and stakeholders in understanding internal factors that influence the financial performance of pharmaceutical companies in Indonesia.

This research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of safeguarding regional assets in the form of official vehicles at the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency (BPKAD) of Sikka Regency. Asset security is an essential component in the management of regional government assets to ensure orderly governance, physical security, and legal certainty regarding asset ownership. This study employs a qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted descriptively based on indicators of administrative security, physical security, legal security, as well as supervision and control. The results show that the security of official vehicle assets has been implemented through administrative recording, safekeeping of ownership documents, and monitoring of vehicle usage. However, its effectiveness is not yet optimal, as there are still official vehicles that have not been returned after the end of officials’ terms of office, along with weak enforcement of sanctions and limited periodic monitoring. Factors affecting the effectiveness of asset security include budget constraints, low user awareness, and suboptimal implementation of internal control systems. This study recommends strengthening supervision, conducting re-inventory of official vehicles, enforcing stricter sanctions, and improving coordination among regional government agencies to achieve more orderly, transparent, and accountable asset management

Implementing REST in modern applications, security will be a key foundation for its development because the REST architecture requires communication between servers. In this study, we will enhance REST request security by using SHA-1 tokens and the Keccak algorithm. Tokens are the access keys for making requests. The token generation process is carried out on the server; the client will generate a token, and the server will return a valid token. This valid token can be used to request data from the server. Adding a token will impact the security and speed of REST. The token will be verified by the server and declared valid. If valid, the server will return the data; otherwise, the server will send an error message. Compared to using a token, data security is more assured. Furthermore, adding a token parameter will increase the token verification process, thus increasing the number of processes, which will impact speed. The results of this test show that server data security is better maintained and more secure compared to using a token, because anonymous users cannot access the data. The API access speed without a token is 48.8 milliseconds, while using a SHA-1 token is 62.3 milliseconds, and the Keccak algorithm is 58.9 milliseconds. The time efficiency reduction for implementing the SHA-1 token algorithm is 27.67% or 13.5 milliseconds, and the Keccak algorithm is 26.6% or 10 milliseconds.

Patient satisfaction influences their desire to return to the same place, and if they are not satisfied, they will look for another place of health, prolonged helminths will result in patients experiencing psychological disorders and will result in the decline of patients caused by the threat of death, overall economic problems and medical problems. Cognitive factors can influence the health and well-being of patients with kidney failure because patients with kidney failure can feel psychologically tired because they have to undergo hemodialysis. The aim of this research is to determine the description of patient satisfaction undergoing hemodialysis at Santa Elisabeth Hospital. The design method for clinical treatment is delscrilptilf which will analyze or observe a picture of the population of patients who underwent hemodilalization at Rulmah Hospital Santa Ellilsabelth with a sample size of 50 respondents. The total sampling technique was taken. Research Results The results of this research were to determine the description of patient satisfaction undergoing hemodialysis at Santa Elisabeth Hospital in Medan with a total of 50 respondents. Where the research uses tables and provides an explanation of the frequency distribution of characteristics based on age, gender, religion, occupation, marital status, education. And this research was obtained from primary data obtained from the respondents themselves. After the data is obtained, it is processed and the results will be analyzed using univariate analysis.

This study aims to examine the factors influencing the level of sustainability report disclosure based on OJK regulations in KBMI 3 banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2023. The level of sustainability disclosure is measured using the Sustainability Report Index (SR Index), constructed through content analysis of indicators stipulated in POJK No. 51/POJK.03/2017. The independent variables analyzed in this study include firm size, profitability proxied by Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE), foreign ownership, and firm age. This research employs a quantitative explanatory approach using secondary data obtained from annual reports and sustainability reports. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS. The results indicate that firm size, foreign ownership, and firm age have a positive and significant effect on the level of sustainability report disclosure. Conversely, profitability measured by ROA and ROE does not have a significant effect. Simultaneously, all independent variables significantly influence sustainability report disclosure. These findings suggest that structural and ownership characteristics play a more dominant role in determining sustainability disclosure than financial performance, reflecting the regulator-driven nature of sustainability reporting in the Indonesian banking sector.

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.

The objective of this study is to examine the effects of profitability, liquidity, leverage, and asset growth on dividend policy among food and beverage companies listed on the IDX during 2020-2023. The dependent variable in this study is dividend policy, specifically the proxy dividend payout ratio (DPR). The independent variables, including profitability as measured by return on equity (ROE), liquidity as measured by the current ratio (CR), leverage as measured by the debt-to-equity ratio (DER), and asset growth as measured by the asset growth proxy (Growth), will also be examined. The data collection process used secondary data and employed purposive sampling. The study’s initial population included 95 samples; however, after applying the criteria, 17 were found relevant. The methods used in this study include descriptive statistical analysis, classical assumption test, hypothesis testing, and multiple linear regression analysis. The study’s results suggest that profitability, liquidity, and leverage may have simultaneous effects on dividend policy. It appears that profitability and liquidity may positively affect dividend policy, while leverage may negatively affect it, and asset growth may have no effect. It is hoped that the results of this study will provide a useful reference point for management and other relevant parties as they plan dividend policy, maintain business continuity, and make investment decisions.

The phenomenon of homeless individuals and beggars (gepeng) in Jambi City remains a significant and ongoing social issue, indicating that efforts to address poverty and urban social vulnerability have not yet been fully effective. Although the local government, through the Jambi City Social Affairs Office, has implemented a Social Rehabilitation Program aimed at restoring beneficiaries’ social functioning through outreach, social assessment, social guidance, skills training, and family reunification, the presence of gepeng in public spaces continues to fluctuate from 2022 to 2024. This study analyzes the effectiveness of the program’s implementation, particularly the social guidance component, using a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observation, and documentation review, and analyzed using George C. Edward III’s policy implementation theory, which emphasizes communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The findings show that the program has been carried out procedurally and humanely; however, its effectiveness remains limited due to insufficient numbers of social workers, weak and unsustained economic empowerment support, and inadequate post-rehabilitation monitoring. As a result, some beneficiaries return to the streets after completing the program. Therefore, strengthening inter-agency communication, increasing resource capacity, integrating sustainable economic empowerment initiatives, and improving consistent monitoring systems are essential steps to achieve long-term and more sustainable reductions in homelessness in Jambi.

This study aims to develop a strategic plan for Information Systems and Information Technology (IS/IT) at KR Hotel Palembang by applying the Ward and Peppard methodology. The analysis began with external environment assessment using the PEST framework and internal analysis through the MOST method and Value Chain model. The results were synthesized into a SWOT analysis to identify the organization's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. From this, Critical Success Factors (CSF) were formulated to guide the determination of key information system needs. Application portfolio mapping was then conducted using the McFarlan Strategic Grid to classify systems based on their strategic impact. Findings indicate that KR Hotel has strong potential in leveraging digital technologies but faces challenges such as the absence of integrated systems across departments and limited IT training for staff. To address these issues, an integrated system named ZKBiolock was proposed, encompassing modules such as hotel management, financial management, customer relationship management (CRM), human resource training systems, digital promotion, and internal network monitoring and control. This strategic plan is supported by a comprehensive database design, network topology, human resource and infrastructure analysis, investment budgeting, and Return on Investment (ROI) evaluation. The proposed strategy aims to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the hotel's operational management.

Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh Good Corporate Governance (GCG), Financial Risk, dan Capital terhadap Opini Audit, dengan Earning sebagai variabel intervening dan Reputasi Kantor Akuntan Publik (KAP) sebagai variabel moderasi, pada perusahaan perbankan yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia (BEI) periode 2020–2024. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif kausal dengan data panel dari 15 bank yang dipilih secara purposive sampling, sehingga diperoleh 75 observasi bank-tahun. GCG diproksikan dengan jumlah Dewan Direksi dan Komite Audit; Financial Risk diproksikan dengan Non-Performing Loan (NPL) dan Loan to Deposit Ratio (LDR); Capital diproksikan dengan Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) dan Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR); Earning diproksikan dengan Return on Assets (ROA) dan Return on Equity (ROE); dan Opini Audit diukur dengan skor 1–5 berdasarkan jumlah catatan tambahan auditor. Data dianalisis menggunakan Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) berbantuan SmartPLS dengan konstruk formatif dan prosedur bootstrapping 5.000 resample. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Financial Risk dan Capital berpengaruh negatif signifikan terhadap Earning, sedangkan GCG tidak berpengaruh signifikan. GCG dan Capital berpengaruh signifikan meskipun dengan arah negatif terhadap Opini Audit, sementara Financial Risk dan Earning tidak berpengaruh signifikan. Earning tidak terbukti memediasi pengaruh variabel eksogen terhadap Opini Audit, dan Reputasi KAP tidak terbukti memoderasi hubungan Earning-Opini Audit, meskipun berpengaruh positif secara langsung terhadap Opini Audit. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa pada industri perbankan yang sangat teregulasi, opini audit lebih ditentukan oleh kewajaran penyajian laporan keuangan dan kredibilitas auditor dibandingkan kinerja profitabilitas semata.

This study aims to examine the effect of the Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Return on Assets (ROA) on firm value (Tobin’s Q) in property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2020-2024. Using a descriptive quantitative method with purposive sampling, this study involves 6 companies and 97 data observations. Data analysis was performed using panel data regression, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination tests. The results show that CR has a negative and significant effect on firm value with a t-value of -3.760941 and a significance level of 0.0011. Meanwhile, DER has a positive but insignificant effect on firm value with a t-value of 0.508701 and a significance level of 0.6163. ROA also has a negative but insignificant effect with a t-value of -1.254781 and a significance level of 0.2233. Simultaneously, the F-test results show a significant effect from all three variables on firm value, with an F-value of 14.37946 (greater than the F-table value of 2.975) and a significance level of 0.000001. The Adjusted R-Square value of 78.69% indicates that the independent variables explain 78.69% of the variation in firm value, while the remaining 21.31% is explained by other factors.

This research focuses on examining the relationship between environmental accounting practices and firm value creation, considering the role of profitability as an intermediary mechanism. The study was conducted on companies in the basic and chemical industry subsectors listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2020–2024 period. Green Accounting in this study is represented through environmental cost disclosure, while firm value is proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV), and profitability is measured by Return on Equity (ROE). The analysis used a panel data regression approach, complemented by a mediation test using the Sobel test. Empirical results indicate that the implementation of Green Accounting has not had a significant impact on profitability or firm value. Conversely, profitability has been shown to have a positive and significant relationship with firm value. Furthermore, the mediation test indicates that profitability plays no role in channeling the influence of Green Accounting on firm value. These findings lead to the interpretation that Green Accounting practices in the studied sectors still reflect regulatory compliance and efforts to gain social legitimacy rather than a strategy to increase short-term economic value.
