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.

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. Trend Moment analysis shows that profitability has a significant relationship with PPh payable, while capital structure also affects PPh, though not directly. The company’s asset size impacts depreciation recognized as an expense in the income statement, influencing the tax amount due. This study confirms that managing profitability and capital structure is crucial for tax planning and compliance in manufacturing companies, particularly in the organic fertilizer industry.

The results show that although the company has not fully optimized tax planning implementation, the strategies applied have successfully saved CIT amounting to IDR 3,994,865, or 5.05% of the total tax liability. This demonstrates that applying tax planning in accordance with regulations can provide significant tax savings for the company. The findings also indicate that effective tax planning strategies can reduce tax liabilities legally, while also improving financial management efficiency within the company. Therefore, effective tax planning is crucial in optimizing the company’s tax obligations, supporting business sustainability, and complying with the applicable tax regulations.

Simultaneously, Firm Size and Sales Growth have no significant effect on Capital Structure with a value of 1.035.

This study aims to identify and analyze the preparation of financial statements based on the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small, and Medium Entities (SAK EMKM) in the Mebel Kerajinan Jepara business. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed using primary data obtained directly from business owners. Data collection techniques included in-depth interviews, observation of accounting records, and documentation of transaction evidence and records used in preparing financial statements. The data were analyzed descriptively to present systematic, factual, and accurate information about the actual accounting practices in the field. The findings reveal that the preparation of financial statements at Mebel Kerajinan Jepara has not yet fully complied with SAK EMKM. The business only keeps simple records of income and expenses in a notebook without producing complete financial statements such as the statement of financial position, income statement, and notes to the financial statements. The main constraints identified are the limited understanding of the business owners regarding the importance of accounting and the absence of human resources with accounting expertise. These findings highlight the need for assistance, training, and capacity building for business owners in the field of accounting to produce standardized financial reports, enhance business credibility, and support decision-making as well as access to financing. Thus, this study is expected to serve as a reference for local governments, educational institutions, and other related parties in providing accounting guidance to micro and small business actors.

Financial distress refers to a condition where a company experiences financial difficulties and if it is not resolved immediately, it will lead to bankruptcy. Several models can be used to measure financial distress, one of which is the Zmijewski model. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial ratios and macroeconomic factors on financial distress among technology companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The research was conducted at technology companies listed on the IDX for the 2020–2024 period, with a sample size of 44 companies selected using a purposive sampling method. The study employed secondary data derived from company financial statements obtained through the official IDX website and analyzed using SPSS version 27. The findings reveal that financial ratios specifically, profitability (ROE) have a significant negative effect on financial distress, while leverage (DER) has a significant positive effect. Meanwhile, macroeconomic factors such as inflation and interest rates have no effect on financial distress.

This study aims to analyze the influence of internal audit quality on the effectiveness of hedging policies in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2020-2023. Using annual financial statements and annual reports, this study selected 30 companies using a purposive sampling method. The internal audit variable in this study was measured by three proxies: Internal Audit Charter, Internal Auditor Competence, and Internal Auditor Training. This study used multiple linear regression analysis as a hypothesis testing method. The results indicate that Internal Audit Charter Disclosure has a positive effect on hedging effectiveness disclosure, while Internal Auditor Competence Disclosure and Internal Auditor Training have insignificant and negative effects on hedging policy effectiveness. Based on these results, companies with robust internal audit charters and comprehensive components tend to be more proactive in disclosing hedging policies to avoid reputational or regulatory risks. Companies that disclose internal auditor competency and training through documents do not necessarily guarantee disclosure of hedging effectiveness. This indicates that documentation of internal auditor competency or training in annual reports does not necessarily reflect the overall company oversight.

This study aims to analyze the influence of inflation and interest rates on banking profitability as measured through Return on Assets (ROA) in conventional banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. The research was conducted from April to May 2025 with a quantitative approach and multiple linear regression analysis methods. The data used are secondary data obtained from the annual financial statements of eight conventional banks as well as macroeconomic data from Bank Indonesia, which were selected through the purposive sampling method. The data analysis process includes descriptive statistics, classical assumption test, t test, F test, and determination coefficient. The results of the study show that partially, neither inflation nor interest rates have a significant effect on ROA. This is shown by the value of t calculating inflation of 0.049 < t table 2.02619 with a significance of 0.961 > 0.05, and t calculating interest rates of 1.163 < t table 2.02619 with a significance of 0.252 > 0.05. However, simultaneously, inflation and interest rates have a significant effect on ROA, as shown by the calculated F value of 8.698 > F table 3.25 and the significance of 0.001 < 0.05. These findings indicate that although individual macroeconomic variables do not have a significant impact, together they have an influence on banking profitability. This research contributes to policy makers and banking industry players in understanding macroeconomic dynamics on banks' financial performance.

Along with economic recovery and fiscal stimulus, the automotive industry is starting to show a recovery trend. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of liquidity ratios and solvency ratios on profitability in automotive sub-sector companies and components listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2019- 2023 period. The method used in this research is quantitative with a descriptive approach using secondary data in the form of financial reports of companies listed on the Indonesian stock exchange for the 2019-2023 period. The data collection technique used in this study is the documentation technique, namely by collecting secondary data in the form of the company's annual financial statements obtained from the official website of the Indonesian stock exchange and the official website of each company. The results of the study based on partial tests show that Current Ratio has no significant effect on ROA with a t value < t table, namely 0.255 < 2.02439 and a significant value of 0.800> 0.05 and partially Debt to Equity Ratio has a negative and significant effect on ROA with a t value < t table, namely -2.336 < 2.02439 and a significant value of 0.25 < 0.05. Meanwhile, based on the simultaneous test, Current Ratio and Debt to Equity Ratio simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on the Return On Asset (ROA) variable with the value of t count> t table, namely 3.518> 3.25 and a significant value of 0.040 <0.05.

This study aims to examine the influence of firm size, profitability, and liquidity on the capital structure of PT Krakatau Steel Tbk during the 2017–2024 period. The independent variables in this study consist of firm size, measured by the natural logarithm of total assets (Ln Total Assets), profitability measured by Return on Equity (ROE), and liquidity measured by the Current Ratio (CR). The dependent variable is capital structure, proxied by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER). A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing multiple linear regression analysis to test the hypotheses. The data used were secondary in nature, comprising quarterly financial statements of PT Krakatau Steel Tbk obtained from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and other official sources. The empirical findings reveal that, partially, firm size has a negative and statistically significant effect on capital structure. This suggests that larger firms tend to rely less on debt financing. Profitability exerts a positive and significant influence on capital structure, indicating that more profitable companies are more likely to use debt to finance their operations. Conversely, liquidity exhibits a negative yet statistically insignificant impact on capital structure, implying that liquidity does not have a substantial effect on the company's capital structure decisions. Simultaneously, the three independent variables collectively have a significant effect on capital structure. The model’s coefficient of determination (R²) indicates that 26.7% of the variation in capital structure can be explained by the independent variables, while the remaining 73.3% is attributable to other factors not included in this study. These findings contribute to the understanding of financial decision-making within capital-intensive industries.

This community service activity was carried out at Laundry A2 Palembang City with the aim of improving the financial literacy of micro business actors through simple financial bookkeeping assistance. Many micro business actors experience difficulties in recording financial transactions systematically, which has an impact on their inability to evaluate the financial condition of the business accurately. Through a participatory approach and direct training at the place of business, this activity focuses on the importance of recording daily income and expenses, as well as the preparation of monthly income statements. The results of the mentoring show that the owners and employees of A2 Laundry are starting to be able to implement a structured daily bookkeeping system. In addition, the increase in understanding of financial management can be seen from the post-test results, which increased by up to 70% compared to the pre-test. A2 Laundry now has a simple income statement that can be used as a basis for business decision-making. The success of this activity shows that a simple bookkeeping model that is tailored to business needs can be implemented effectively by MSME actors. In the future, similar approaches can be replicated in other micro-enterprises to strengthen the financial foundations of local businesses.

This research aims to examine the effect of Return on Equity (ROE), Asset Structure, and Current Ratio (CR) on Capital Structure in the company PT Mayora Indah Tbk, which is listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2015–2023. The data used in this study are secondary data obtained from the company’s annual financial reports during the research period. The research employs a quantitative approach, and the data sources are documentary in nature, focusing on publicly available financial statements.The analytical method used is multiple linear regression analysis, with data processing performed using SPSS software. This method allows the researcher to assess the impact of each independent variable on the dependent variable both partially and simultaneously. The results of the partial hypothesis testing indicate that the Return on Equity (ROE) variable has a positive and significant effect on Capital Structure, suggesting that higher profitability encourages the company to utilize more debt financing. On the other hand, the Asset Structure variable shows no significant negative effect on Capital Structure, indicating that the proportion of fixed assets does not play a decisive role in influencing capital structure in this case. Meanwhile, the Current Ratio (CR) has a negative and significant effect, implying that companies with higher liquidity tend to rely less on external debt. Simultaneously, the three variables—ROE, Asset Structure, and CR—have a significant influence on Capital Structure. These findings can serve as a reference for corporate financial management in optimizing capital structure decisions.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Economic Value Added (EVA) and Return on Assets (ROA) on Market Value Added (MVA) in Consumer Non-Cyclicals sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2023 period. This study uses a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis methods. The data used is secondary data obtained from the annual financial statements of six selected companies through the purposive sampling method. The data analysis process includes descriptive statistical tests, classical assumption tests, t tests, F tests, and determination coefficients. The results showed that partially, EVA and ROA had a significant effect on MVA. This is evidenced by the t-calculated value of EVA of 2.322 and ROA of 2.855, both of which are greater than the t-table of 2.04227, and significance values of 0.026 and 0.008, respectively, which are smaller than 0.05. Simultaneously, EVA and ROA also had a significant effect on MVA, as shown by the calculated F value of 6.287 > F table 3.35 and the significance of 0.006 < 0.05. These findings indicate that EVA and ROA are important indicators in explaining a company's market value. This research contributes to investors and company management in understanding the financial factors that affect market added value, as well as as a reference in strategic decision-making based on financial performance.

This study aims to examine the effect of Return on Assets (ROA), Debt to Assets Ratio (DAR), and Total Assets on Audit Delay in food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. Audit Delay is defined as the time interval between the end of the fiscal year and the issuance date of audited financial statements by independent auditors. The timeliness of financial reporting is a crucial element for stakeholders in evaluating company performance, enhancing transparency, and supporting decision-making processes. Therefore, understanding the factors that influence audit delay is important in the context of both regulatory compliance and corporate governance. This research adopts a quantitative methodology using multiple linear regression analysis. The data used are secondary data obtained from annual financial reports published and accessible through the official IDX website. The study sample consists of 33 companies, resulting in 165 observations. After conducting outlier analysis, the final dataset comprised 83 observations. Data analysis was carried out using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 22. The results show that Return on Assets and Total Assets do not have a significant effect on Audit Delay. This indicates that profitability and company size are not the main determinants of audit timeliness in this sector. However, the Debt to Assets Ratio was found to have a relatively positive effect on Audit Delay. This finding suggests that companies with higher leverage tend to be audited more quickly, possibly because auditors and stakeholders pay greater attention to firms with higher financial risk. Thus, a company’s capital structure plays an important role in influencing the timeliness of audit completion.

The cosmetic and household goods industry in Indonesia continues to experience growth in line with increasing consumer demand and lifestyle changes. This sector plays an important role in supporting the national economy, but it is also vulnerable to fluctuations in market dynamics, global competition, and external challenges that may affect companies’ financial performance. The performance of these companies can be assessed through financial indicators, particularly profitability and solvency, which are often linked to firm value. This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability and solvency on firm value in the cosmetic and household goods subsector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2019–2023. The research population consists of 11 companies, with 6 companies selected as the sample using purposive sampling techniques based on specific criteria. The data used are secondary data derived from financial statements obtained from the official IDX website (www.idx.co.id). The analytical method applied is quantitative with several statistical tests, including classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-test, and F-test, assisted by SPSS version 22. The research findings indicate that profitability, proxied by Return on Assets (ROA), has a positive and significant partial effect on firm value (t-value 3.132 > t-table 2.04841). Solvency, proxied by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), also shows a positive and significant partial effect on firm value (t-value 5.810 > t-table 2.04841). Moreover, both profitability and solvency simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on firm value (F-value 86.997 > F-table 3.35). These results suggest that maintaining profitability and managing solvency effectively are key strategies for companies in enhancing firm value in a competitive market environment.

This study aims to examine the impact of the implementation of Financial Accounting Standard Statement (PSAK) No. 71 on earnings management in banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2022-2023 period. The study uses a quantitative approach, with secondary data collected from the financial statements of 43 banking companies listed on the IDX. A sample of 39 banks and 78 data observations collected over two years was used for the analysis. The data collection method involved gathering written sources from the financial reports of the selected banks. The analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression, with the results revealing that PSAK No. 71 negatively impacts earnings management in these banks. Specifically, the implementation of PSAK No. 71 affects the way banks recognize and measure financial instruments, leading to a reduction in the manipulation of earnings. This suggests that the standard plays a significant role in improving transparency and reliability in financial reporting within the banking sector. The findings highlight the effectiveness of PSAK No. 71 in curbing earnings management practices, contributing to more accurate financial statements. The study's results underscore the importance of implementing accounting standards that promote fair and transparent financial reporting, benefiting stakeholders and ensuring financial stability in the banking sector

This study aims to analyze the bankruptcy prediction of PT Matahari Department Store Tbk using the Zmijewski method. The Zmijewski method, developed in 1984, is one of the most widely used approaches to predict corporate financial distress through the use of financial ratios.
