This research aims to analyze the influence of cash management and inventory management on the financial performance of Ling Food Stores in Makassar City during the 2020-2022 period. The main focus of this research is to evaluate how cash and inventory management contributes to a company's liquidity, profitability and operational efficiency, which are measured through various financial ratios such as Current Ratio, Gross Profit Margin (GPM), Operating Profit Margin (OPM), Net Profit Margin (NPM), Return on Investment (ROI), and Return on Equity (ROE). The research results show that the Current Ratio in 2020 cannot be calculated due to the absence of short-term liabilities, while in 2021 and 2022 each was recorded at 0.095% and 0.216%, reflecting low liquidity. On the other hand, the decrease in Average Inventory from IDR 754,200 in 2021 to IDR 715,000 in 2022, followed by a significant increase in net profit, shows efficiency in inventory management. The increase in GPM, OPM, NPM, ROI, and ROE ratios from 2020 to 2022 reflects significant improvements in financial performance, indicating that more effective cash and inventory management can improve a company's financial health.

Abstract Bhumi Karya Cooperative is an organization focused on the savings and loan activities of its members. Loans with low interest rates and various types of savings are offered to enhance the welfare of the members. However, challenges in the effectiveness of transaction data management, the conventional handling of savings and loan applications, and financial reports managed using Microsoft Excel are faced by the cooperative. The development of a web-based information system is deemed essential, as this system not only allows members to conduct transactions remotely, such as the previously manual savings and loan applications, but also accelerates the processes of member data entry, transaction recording, report generation, and service provision to members anywhere. Additionally, prospective members can register online, thereby increasing the overall operational efficiency of the cooperative

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the Village Asset Management System (SIPADES) in Bengkalis Regency. The focus of the research was to assess the effectiveness of this system in helping village officials manage assets. The research was conducted in six villages using a descriptive qualitative method. Data collection was conducted through reduction, presentation and conclusion drawing. The results showed that villages in Bengkalis Regency had implemented SIPADES well. Village operators, although most of them were only high school graduates, were able to master SIPADES thanks to intensive training. However, the main obstacles are network limitations that cause system errors and downtime, disrupt operational efficiency and stability of village asset management, and make it difficult to track data in real-time. Overcoming these problems requires improved technology infrastructure and better support so that SIPADES can run smoothly and effectively in all villages.
