The reciprocal tariff policy has a significant impact on a number of countries, including Indonesia. In this scheme, Indonesian non-oil and gas products are subject to a tariff of 32% when entering the US market. Such a high tariff places Indonesian exporters in a less competitive position compared to other countries that have more favorable trade arrangements with the United States. This condition becomes more complex when viewed in the broader context of the US-EU trade war, which creates uncertainty and turbulence in the global economy. Indonesian exports are affected both directly and indirectly. Indirect impacts can be seen from disruptions to the global supply chain, the slowdown in the world economy, and decreased global demand. As global production networks become increasingly interconnected, any disruption in major economies will ultimately suppress demand for Indonesian export commodities. This means that even if Indonesian products are not directly targeted, the ripple effects of global trade tensions will still hinder Indonesia’s export performance. For instance, reduced consumption in Europe and the US due to rising product prices and inflation will diminish market opportunities for Indonesian goods.On the other hand, direct impacts arise because several Indonesian products have been explicitly subjected to tariffs by the US government. These include textiles and textile products (TPT), electronics and their components, footwear, furniture, and palm oil (crude palm oil/CPO). Such tariffs significantly reduce Indonesia’s competitiveness in the US market, potentially leading to decreased export volumes, lower revenues for domestic industries, and job losses in export-oriented sectors. Furthermore, the policy also makes European products much more expensive in the US market, which worsens the global supply chain, increases logistics costs, triggers inflation, and escalates uncertainty in international trade.

This research focuses on analyzing the impact of fundamental financial ratios on stock prices in the banking sector, specifically examining PT. Bank Mandiri Tbk. The key financial ratios investigated include Return On Assets (ROA), Loan to Deposit Ratio (LDR), Non-Performing Loans (NPL), and the ratio of Operating Expenses to Operating Income (BOPO). The study employs a quantitative descriptive research method, utilizing secondary data sourced from annual reports spanning the period from 2014 to 2023. Multiple linear regression analysis is utilized as the primary analytical tool to address the research questions and hypotheses. The findings of the study reveal that the independent variables—ROA, LDR, NPL, and BOPO—significantly influence stock prices, both in isolation and collectively. This indicates that these financial ratios are critical indicators for investors and stakeholders when evaluating the performance and market value of banking institutions. The research highlights the importance of these financial metrics in shaping market perceptions and stock valuations, providing valuable insights for investors, financial analysts, and decision-makers in the banking industry. Furthermore, the study contributes to the existing body of knowledge regarding the relationship between financial performance indicators and stock market behavior. By emphasizing the correlation between these ratios and stock prices, the research underscores the necessity for stakeholders to monitor and analyze these key financial metrics to make informed investment decisions. Overall, the results affirm the relevance of fundamental financial ratios in assessing the financial health and competitive positioning of banks, particularly in the context of PT. Bank Mandiri Tbk.

This community service initiative aims to educate and assist in the implementation of an Internal Control System ICS at Minimarket Malika as a strategic effort to safeguard assets and enhance operational effectiveness and efficiency. The ICS applied includes a systematic recording process for inventory, purchase prices, and selling prices. These records are intended to ensure that all transactions are properly documented and accountable.Internal evaluations are conducted regularly through annual stock-taking activities, which involve verifying and matching inventory data recorded in the system with the actual physical stock in the store or warehouse. This activity serves as a critical benchmark for assessing business stability, the accuracy of inventory records, and the overall effectiveness of inventory management. Any transactional errors identified during sales operations are corrected immediately in real-time to prevent error accumulation and potential financial losses. The role of management is essential, particularly in maintaining business continuity through improved service quality and the timely fulfillment of customer needs. In response to intense competition and dynamic market changes, Minimarket Malika adopts adaptive strategies such as price adjustments, excellent customer service, and a broader product assortment to meet diverse consumer demands. To prevent fraud, the minimarket has installed CCTV cameras at strategic locations and provides training for employees on how to detect counterfeit money and suspicious behavior. The ICS also supports risk management in inventory by monitoring the movement of goods in real-time, allowing management to make accurate decisions about which products need to be stocked in accordance with current consumer demand trends.Through the consistent and comprehensive application of an internal control system, Minimarket Malika is expected to improve its competitiveness while maintaining the integrity and sustainability of its business operations amid ongoing economic challenges. Furthermore, this approach serves as a practical model for other small and medium enterprises (SMEs) aiming to strengthen their internal governance and adapt to an increasingly complex retail environment.

This study aims to examine one of the disciplines of Islamic law, namely the pricing mechanism from the perspective of Imam Al-Ghazali, in order to create a healthy market environment free from monopolistic practices and manipulation, and aligned with Sharia principles. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a literature study method by reviewing various relevant books, classical texts, articles, and academic journals related to Islamic economics and Imam Al-Ghazali’s thought. The findings indicate that the concept of fair pricing is not solely dependent on the interaction between supply and demand, but must also consider moral and social dimensions, such as justice, honesty, and public welfare. Imam Al-Ghazali strongly emphasized that economic transactions should uphold ethical standards and social responsibility to prevent exploitation and inequality. He argued that pricing must reflect not only market dynamics but also the broader ethical framework rooted in Islamic values. Furthermore, the study explores the concept of economic equilibrium in relation to pricing mechanisms, where prices should ideally balance individual interests with communal welfare. The research also discusses the correlation between economic balance and price-setting policies, including the views of other classical and contemporary Islamic scholars. It is found that state intervention is permissible in certain conditions—particularly when market mechanisms fail to ensure fairness—thus justifying government roles in market supervision and price stabilization. One of the key concepts in Islamic economics is the notion of a just price (al-thaman al-‘adl), as emphasized by Imam Al-Ghazali.. This study concludes that understanding pricing from Al-Ghazali’s perspective offers valuable insights for building ethical and socially responsible economic systems aligned with Islamic teachings.

This study investigates the potential role of the Jakarta Islamic Index (JII) as a hedging instrument and safe haven asset against the Indonesia Composite Index (IHSG) during the period from January 2020 to April 2025, a time characterized by elevated market volatility. The main objective is to determine whether sharia-compliant stocks in Indonesia offer diversification benefits during periods of financial stress. Utilizing daily closing prices converted into log returns, the study employs the Asymmetric Dynamic Conditional Correlation Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (A-DCC GARCH) model to capture time-varying correlations between JII and IHSG. Prior to applying the model, standard diagnostic tests were performed to ensure data quality, including tests for stationarity, autocorrelation, and ARCH effects.Empirical results reveal a persistently high correlation between IHSG and JII, with an average of 0.826 and values exceeding 0.95 during periods of market turbulence. These findings indicate that JII does not fulfill the characteristics of a hedge or safe haven asset. A robustness analysis using extended data from 2010 to mid-2025 further supports the conclusion, showing the continued presence of strong comovement between the two indices across different market regimes. This suggests a structural relationship rather than one driven solely by crisis events. The high correlation may be attributed to overlapping index constituents and similar investor responses to market shocks. These results challenge the prevailing notion that Islamic indices inherently offer protection during downturns. As such, investors seeking to mitigate portfolio risk may need to look beyond domestic sharia equities and consider broader asset classes or international diversification. Future research is encouraged to explore cross-market and multi-asset safe haven properties, especially in the context of emerging economies.

This study aims to identify risk management processes and analyze management strategies that can be implemented by Pineapple Chips MSMEs in Kualu Nenas Village. The approach refers to the ISO 31000 framework, which includes risk identification, analysis, evaluation, and management. The results show that the most significant risks are in the high category, especially financial and operational risks, such as fluctuations in raw material prices, product damage due to improper storage, and limited human resources in marketing and production management. To minimize the impact of risks, a thorough analysis and appropriate mitigation strategies are required. The implementation of systematic risk management is considered capable of reducing potential losses, increasing business resilience, and strengthening the position of MSMEs in facing market dynamics. This approach is also crucial in maintaining business continuity, increasing consumer trust, and maintaining business reputation.  

As a key source of animal protein in Indonesia with growing demand, this study examines the income levels of broiler chicken meat vendors at Tanjung Pura Market, Langkat Regency. Despite fluctuating prices and limited purchasing power among consumers, traditional markets continue to serve an essential function in meat distribution. The objective of this research is to assess the income of broiler chicken sellers by analyzing production costs, output, profits or losses, R/C ratio, and break-even point (BEP). Using a total sampling method, ten vendors at Tanjung Pura Market were chosen as the research subjects. A qualitative approach was applied through descriptive analysis.

This study aims to analyze the influence of inflation, interest rates, capital structure, and profitability on stock prices in manufacturing companies. The background of this research highlights the volatility of the Indonesian economy, which is driven by macroeconomic factors that significantly affect capital market performance. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this study synthesized 10 relevant articles published between 2023 and 2025, collected through Google Scholar using specified keywords. The findings reveal varied results: inflation and interest rates generally have a negative influence on stock prices, although some studies report insignificant effects. Similarly, capital structure shows both positive and negative impacts, depending on company conditions and research contexts. Profitability also presents mixed outcomes; some studies found significant relationships, while others reported no influence on stock prices. This literature-based synthesis highlights inconsistencies in previous empirical findings and reinforces the need for further research to clarify the interaction between these variables and stock market performance. The study contributes to providing a comprehensive understanding for investors, financial analysts, and policymakers in making better investment and strategic financial decisions under uncertain economic conditions.

Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of financial performance on the stock prices of food and beverage manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2020 to 2024. The financial performance factors analyzed include Return on Assets (ROA), Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Return on Investment (ROI). Data were collected from fifteen nationally accredited scientific articles published during the period and were eligible for inclusion. The results show that Return on Assets (ROA) consistently has a positive effect on stock prices, making it the most important indicator to attract investors. Since investors prioritize profitability over short-term liquidity, Current Ratio (CR) is usually not very influential. Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) results vary depending on the debt condition of companies and their financial plans. However, Return on Investment (ROI), which has not been studied much, seems to have a significant impact on stock prices and is starting to attract the attention of investors in the food and beverage industry. This study helps by providing a comprehensive picture of the pattern of influence of financial ratios on stock prices and complements the shortcomings of current research, especially regarding the ROI variable which is still minimal in previous studies. It is hoped that these findings will help investors, company management, academics, and regulators make decisions and create investment strategies in the Indonesian capital market.

The growing demand for affordable transportation has significantly expanded the used car market. This study aims to develop optimal sales strategies by analyzing seller types and vehicle categories through exploratory data analysis and linear regression techniques. Using a cleaned public dataset of over 150,000 used car listings in Germany, key variables such as registration year, mileage, vehicle type, and seller type were examined. Results indicate that individual sellers dominate the market, although dealers set higher and more stable prices. SUVs and limousines typically hold higher market value. The linear regression model achieved an R-squared value of 0.34, suggesting that registration year and mileage account for 34% of the price variance. These findings offer practical insights for stakeholders in the used car business to tailor pricing strategies based on vehicle attributes and seller classification

Auctions in Indonesia serve a dual function not only as a mechanism for buying and selling to obtain optimal prices, but also as a legal enforcement tool that reflects both the public and private aspects of the auction process. This study aims to analyze the legal standing of the auction minutes deed (akta risalah lelang) in providing legal certainty for auction winners, particularly concerning ownership of vehicles resulting from the execution of state-confiscated assets. This study employs a normative approach, which examines law as a set of norms applicable within society and functions as a guideline for individual behavior. In this context, the auction minutes deed is regarded as an authentic deed; however, its existence does not automatically serve as legitimate proof of ownership for the winning bidder. Nevertheless, the deed still ensures legal certainty by demonstrating the good faith of the buyer and can serve as the legal basis for transferring vehicle ownership documents, proof of the sales transaction, and valid legal evidence.

In the economic sector, cooperatives are one form of collaboration in the field of economics. People trust this type of collaboration because they share a number of common needs in their lives. One of the pesantren-owned enterprises (BUMP) at Pondok Miftahul Ulum RU IV Putra is a cooperative that works to support and improve the local economy. This study aims to examine the role of Islamic boarding school cooperatives (kopontren) in improving students’ economic welfare and their contribution to the development of pesantren infrastructure. The research was conducted at Pondok Pesantren Miftahul Ulum RU IV Putra using a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that kopontren plays a strategic role in meeting students’ basic needs at affordable prices and serves as a practical learning platform that fosters entrepreneurship and self-reliance among students. Additionally, although its contribution to infrastructure is still limited, the kopontren has shown social concern through the provision of supporting facilities such as dormitory furniture and environmental maintenance. Collaboration between the cooperative management and pesantren leadership is a key factor in ensuring the sustainability of the cooperative as an integral part of the pesantren’s educational system.

The aim of this research is to examine how much influence pricing and promotional activities have on consumers' decisions to repurchase Jelita Cosmetic products in the Tamansiswa area of Yogyakarta. In the face of intensifying business competition, adopting the right marketing strategy becomes increasingly vital. As the business environment grows more competitive, choosing an effective marketing approach is a key factor for success. Indonesia’s beauty sector has seen remarkable growth in recent years. Since its inception in 2005, Jelita Cosmetic has managed to capture consumer attention by offering competitive prices and running consistent promotional campaigns through social media and e-commerce channels. This research employs a quantitative approach by gathering data through surveys conducted with 65 customers of Jelita Cosmetic. The data was analyzed using multiple linear regression and supported by validity and reliability tests. The research findings reveal that both price and promotion have a positive and significant effect on consumer repurchase intentions, both individually and collectively. Approximately 58.4% of the variance in repurchase interest is accounted for by the two independent variables studied, with the remaining 41.6% attributed to other factors beyond the scope of this study. These results offermeaningful insights into how effective marketing strategies can be applied within the beauty industry.

Bitcoin is one of the most prominent digital assets in the modern financial era due to its high volatility and huge profit potential. However, its extreme price volatility also makes it a high-risk asset, so a reliable forecasting approach is needed to help investors make more rational decisions. This study aims to forecast Bitcoin price using the Moving Average (MA) method, specifically MA3, by utilizing monthly historical data of Bitcoin price in USD currency obtained from investing.com website. The MA3 method was chosen for its ability to smooth out short-term fluctuations and identify the direction of price trends. The forecasting process is performed by calculating the average of the last three months' prices for each point in time and compared to the actual price to evaluate its accuracy. The evaluation is done using various prediction error metrics, namely Error, Absolute Error, Squared Error, and Percentage Error. The results of the analysis show that the MA method provides a fairly representative picture of price trends and can be used as an early indicator in short-term investment strategies. Thus, the Moving Average method proves to be a simple but effective prediction tool, especially for novice investors in the dynamic crypto asset market.

Inflation is a condition in which the economy is marked by a general and continuous increase in the prices of goods and services over a certain period. Inflation reflects a decrease in the purchasing power of money due to the rising prices of goods and services. This study aims to analyze the level of understanding of inflation among Generation Z in Gondanglegi District, Malang Regency. Inflation is a crucial economic indicator that affects purchasing power and decision-making, particularly for the younger generation growing up in a dynamic economic landscape.The research uses a qualitative approach with data collected through Google Forms and strengthened with interview data. Respondents were 50 individuals aged between 19 and 25 years, all of whom had graduated from high school (SMA). The data were analyzed descriptively to understand the depth of knowledge and perception of inflation among these individuals.The results indicate that while most respondents are familiar with the term "inflation," their understanding of the causes, impacts, and ways to mitigate it is still superficial. Factors such as educational background, access to digital economic content, and daily economic experiences influence their level of understanding. This study contributes to the development of targeted economic literacy programs for Gen-Z.    

The Iraqi economy demonstrates that, despite the substantial magnitude of oil revenues, theseresources have not been effectively utilized to establish a diversified economic base capable of supportingcomprehensive development and securing the rights of current and future generations. Instead, the majority ofthese revenues are allocated to consumption patterns or to financing current expenditures, which do notcontribute to achieving sustainable development goals. This study examines the interdependence between oilrent revenues and their management, assessing the resulting improvements or declines in Iraq's financial andeconomic performance. It emphasizes the necessity of adopting prudent financial management and diversifyingincome sources to ensure long-term stability and prosperity for the country. The research problem lies in theheavy reliance of Iraq's public finances on oil rents, which exposes the economy to significant risks due tovolatile global oil prices. This dependency leads to structural weaknesses in the revenue and expenditureframework, limiting its flexibility and sustainability, and consequently hindering efforts to achievecomprehensive economic development. The results of the estimated model indicate that current public revenuesare heavily dependent on the previous year's revenues, suggesting that revenue generation is influenced byexternal factors, particularly expectations regarding fluctuations in oil prices.

Underpricing continues to be a prominent issue within the Indonesian capital market, as many firms conducting an Initial Public Offering (IPO) tend to set initial share prices below their subsequent market value. This research investigates the moderating role of underwriter reputation in the relationship between profitability, financial leverage, and earnings per share (EPS) on IPO underpricing among firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Utilizing a purposive sampling technique, the study analyzes data from 176 companies. The data are processed using Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the help of STATA software. The findings reveal that profitability, measured by return on assets (ROA), significantly influences underpricing. In contrast, financial leverage (proxied by the debt-to-equity ratio) and EPS show no statistically significant effect. Moreover, underwriter reputation is shown to moderate the negative impact of both ROA and EPS on underpricing but does not moderate the relationship between the debt-to-equity ratio and underpricing. These results offer valuable insights into signaling theory and information asymmetry, highlighting the importance of firm fundamentals and intermediary reputation in IPO pricing strategies. The study contributes to a better understanding for investors, issuers, and regulators involved in the IPO decision-making process.

This study examines the impact of rising commodity prices on household expenditure patterns from the perspective of conventional economic literature. The review method is used to trace and synthesize the findings of studies published nationally in the last five years. The main objective is to analyze how inflationary pressures on basic necessities such as food, fuel, and housing affect expenditure shifts. The review reveals that rising prices of basic products cause families to reduce discretionary spending, allocate budgets, and occupy lower welfare levels. This study contributes to policy recommendations by identifying the most important expenditure factors and recommending targeted social protection. This conceptual article promotes the role of fiscal and monetary stability in fostering household purchasing power in developing countries such as Indonesia. The impact on the economic bottom line is considered in great depth, strengthening the role of price controls, subsidies, and income redistribution activities..

This devotions aims to assist small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) Dimsum Nyoo in determining pricing strategies based on market demand. The methodology used is a qualitative descriptive approach, based on observations and interviews with business leaders. The results of the study indicate that pricing strategies based on cost of goods sold (COGS) and market analysis can build customer loyalty. Despite fluctuating raw material prices, Dimsum Nyoo managed to maintain stable quality and prices, thus contributing to its growth. These results highlight the importance of adaptive pricing to support the sustainability of MSMEs in a competitive market.
