Audit tenure, and financial distress in the audit report lag of companies in the property and real estate subsector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2022–2024 period. Operational efficiency is then measured using the BOPO ratio. Audit tenure is measured by assigning a score of 1 if the company’s auditor is consistent and adding +1 whenever each year continues and returning 0 if there is a replacement auditor. Financial distress is then calculated using the Grover model, and audit report lag is calculated based on the difference in days between the audit report date and the financial statements. Company size is measured by Ln (Total Assets). Furthermore, the method used in this study is quantitative with a purposive sampling technique analyzed using multiple linear regression and moderated regression analysis. Operational efficiency hazards have a positive and significant effect on audit report lag, meaning that in this case the BOPO ratio has a high probability of being related to delays in longer audit reports. Audit tenure does not have an effect on audit report lag. Furthermore, financial distress has a negative and significant effect, indicating that companies experiencing lower financial difficulties tend to have a shorter audit report lag. Company size strengthens the influence of operational efficiency on audit report lag. Company size also does not moderate the relationship between audit tenure and report lag. Company size weakens the effect of financial distress on audit report delays. These findings demonstrate the importance of maintaining timely audit reporting for investors in decision-making. This study contributes to the literature on auditors and future research.

Effective management of fixed assets plays a crucial role in maintaining the reliability and transparency of a company’s financial reporting. Errors in the capitalization process can lead to misstatements in financial statements and affect investment decisions. This study aims to analyze and forecast asset capitalization trends using the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model. The research utilizes monthly recap data of asset capitalization recorded during the Settlement to Fixed Asset process from January 2021 to August 2025. The data were processed through several stages, including stationarity testing, model identification, parameter estimation, and model accuracy evaluation. The findings indicate that the data are stationary without differencing (d = 0). From several candidate models, ARIMA(0,0,3) was identified as the best model based on the lowest AIC value of 39.76. The selected model was then applied to predict asset capitalization values for the next ten periods, resulting in forecasts ranging from 1.12 to 1.56 trillion rupiah. Model evaluation showed a MAPE of 29.01%, which implies a moderate forecasting accuracy. Consequently, the ARIMA model can be considered a suitable analytical tool for monitoring and forecasting asset capitalization quantitatively.

This research aimed to analyze the financial management of a non-profit entity at the Parish of Hati Tak Bernoda Santa Perawan Maria Tilang and its compliance with ISAK 35. The research used a descriptive qualitative approach through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results indicated that the parish’s financial recording was carried out both manually and using the MYOB application; however, the reports produced were still basic and oriented toward profit-oriented business entities. The financial statements presented only include the statement of financial position and the income statement, while the cash flow statement, statement of changes in net assets, and notes to the financial statements have not been fully implemented. The main challenges faced were a limited understanding of non-profit accounting and adapting MYOB to comply with ISAK 35 standards.  

Earnings quality refers to the accuracy of a company in presenting its earnings information. It reflects the quality of the company’s financial statements, indicating whether the reported earnings can be considered reliable or not. Earnings quality is influenced by several factors, one of which is the decision-making of the board of directors (CEO). The CEO is regarded as the most powerful individual within a company, exercising authority over corporate decisions, including the disclosure of financial information. In recent times, many women have taken on the role of CEO, and their presence is no longer underestimated. The purpose of this study is to provide empirical evidence on the effect of female CEO presence and CEO education on earnings quality. The research was conducted on all companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2019–2022 period. The sample size was determined using a saturated sampling method, resulting in 2,792 observations. Data were collected using a non-participant observation method, and the analysis technique employed was multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this study show that female CEO presence and CEO education have no significant relationship with earnings quality.

This study aims to analyze the effect of financial performance on firm value in transportation sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. The research uses a quantitative approach with a causal associative method, employing secondary data obtained from annual financial statements and capital market databases. Financial performance is measured using three indicators—Net Profit Margin (NPM), Return on Assets (ROA), and Return on Equity (ROE)—while firm value is measured using Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Price to Book Value (PBV). Data analysis is conducted using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach based on Partial Least Squares (SmartPLS). The results show that financial performance has a positive and significant effect on firm value, as indicated by a path coefficient of 0.8622, a t-statistic of 31.2125, and a p-value of 0.000. These findings imply that the better a company’s financial performance, the higher its firm value. The results also support the Signaling Theory, which explains that strong financial performance serves as a positive signal to investors about a company’s future prospects. The study highlights the strategic importance of profitability improvement, cost efficiency, and transparency in financial reporting to enhance firm value and strengthen investor confidence, especially in the transportation sector that plays a crucial role in post-pandemic economic recovery.

This study provides a detailed equity analysis of the Deli Serdang Regency local government by evaluating its financial statements from 2020 to 2023 and interpreting results through the lens of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and public sector accounting principles. The analysis examines trends in assets, liabilities, and equity, computes key financial ratios, and discusses implications for fiscal sustainability, transparency, and governance. The study combines quantitative ratio and trend analyses with a qualitative review of notes to the financial statements and a reconciliation exercise mapping local government reporting (SAP/APBD disclosures) to IFRS/IPSAS concepts. Findings (illustrative data) show a positive but modest growth in equity, persistent dependence on intergovernmental transfers, and opportunities to improve asset valuation and liability recognition practices. The paper concludes with practical recommendations for policy-makers and local finance managers and suggests a road map for incremental IFRS-aligned reporting in the local government context.

Hospitals are places that provide health services to the community through the services they offer. In their operations, hospitals require fixed assets to be us|ed ind|epe|nd|ently or i|n co|mbi|nati|on wi|th other assets in the hospital for long-term operations. The fixed assets us|ed by hospitals make a significant contribution because they require large expenditures and are used over the long term. This study was conducted with the aim of analyzing the application of fixed asset accounting treatment at XYZ Hospital in accordance with PSAK 216. This study adopted a descriptive qualitative methodological approach to achieve the predetermined research objectives. The data collection technique applied was conducting interviews with the asset management department and obtaining accounting treatment documents and a detailed list of fixed assets of XYZ Hospital. The research findings show that the handling of fixed assets and the implementation of PSAK 216 on fixed assets at XYZ Hospital indicate that XYZ Hospital records its fixed assets if they have a useful life of more than one year, measures the initial cost of assets from the acquisition price, revalues assets but there is no method explaining the calculation method, applies the straight-line method for depreciation, discontinues fixed assets if they can no longer be used, and records all these events in its financial statements. It is important to apply PSAK 216 in implementing accounting treatments to minimize and prevent the risk of fixed asset recording errors in financial statements.

This study aims to explain and test the hypotheses regarding the effect of Profit Growth, Capital Structure, and Liquidity Ratio on Earnings Quality. A quantitative approach with an associative method was employed to examine the influence of Profit Growth, Capital Structure, and Liquidity Ratio on Earnings Quality at PT BFI Finance Indonesia Tbk during the 2016–2023 period. The data analyzed are secondary data obtained from financial statements and earnings quality records listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with both partial and simultaneous hypothesis testing. The partial analysis results indicate that Profit Growth has a negative and significant effect, Capital Structure has a negative and insignificant effect, while Liquidity Ratio has a positive and insignificant effect on Earnings Quality. Simultaneously, the three variables were found to have a significant effect on Earnings Quality. The contribution of Profit Growth, Capital Structure, and Liquidity Ratio to Earnings Quality is 60.7%, while the remaining 39.3% is influenced by other variables not included in this study.

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.

The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) provides public access to investment. Investors can invest in various companies through publicly listed securities using capital market processes to obtain returns and dividends. To obtain returns and dividends, investors first read the company's financial statements to avoid losses. Aiming to provide empirical evidence, this study analyzed non-financial corporations listed on the IDX between 2020 and 2023 to determine the impact of financial performance on dividend policy, along with company size as a moderating variable. This research employed a quantitative approach and purposive sampling for data selection, which was updated in line with predetermined indicators. Over four years, 147 different companies served as study samples. The study used warpPLS 7.0 as a data analysis tool and combined outer and inner models to evaluate independent variable hypotheses and moderating hypotheses. The study found that liquidity plays a role in dividend policy, profitability plays a role in dividend policy, activity plays a role in dividend policy, and only solvency does not play a role in dividend policy. It was also found that company size does not moderate the relationship between liquidity and dividend policy, but it does moderate the relationship between profitability and dividend policy. Company size also does not moderate the relationship between activity and dividend policy, and does not strengthen the relationship between solvency and dividend policy.

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.

Profitability is a key indicator in assessing a company’s financial performance, particularly in the personal care industry listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). This study aims to analyze the effect of Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) on profitability as measured by Net Profit Margin (NPM). The research employed a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis based on the financial statements of personal care companies for the 2021–2024 period. The findings reveal that ROA has a positive and significant effect on NPM, indicating that the more efficiently a company manages its assets, the higher the net profit margin achieved. Meanwhile, ROE and DER show no significant effect on NPM, implying that shareholder equity returns and debt utilization in the capital structure have not directly enhanced net profitability. These results suggest that optimal asset management is a crucial factor in improving the financial performance of personal care companies.

This study aims to examine and analyze the effect of profitability and capital structure on corporate income tax (PPh) payable at PT Kediri Tani Sejahtera during 2018–2022. The research uses a quantitative descriptive approach with primary data obtained through interviews and documentation of the company’s financial statements, including annual income statements and balance sheets. The analysis involves calculating profitability ratios, namely Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE), as well as capital structure ratios, namely Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR) and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and comparing them with the annual corporate income tax payable. The results indicate that net profit before tax and PPh payable were below 4.8 billion IDR annually.
