This quantitative study examines the impact of transactional leadership and reward systems on employees' extrinsic motivation at PT Konigs Multi Teknik, addressing earlier observations of low staff motivation. Utilizing a saturated sampling technique, the research involved the entire company population of 31 employees. Data collected through five-point Likert-scale questionnaires were analyzed via multiple linear regression using SPSS version 27, successfully satisfying all required classical assumption tests The partial test (t-test) results revealed that both transactional leadership and rewards exert a positive and significant influence on extrinsic motivation, with rewards standing out as the more dominant factor. Furthermore, the simultaneous test (F-test) confirmed that both variables jointly and significantly drive employee motivation, accounting for exactly 80.9 percent of its variance according to the adjusted R-square value. Ultimately, these findings suggest that companies must strategically combine consistent transactional leadership practices with a fair, transparent reward system to effectively boost overall motivation.

Penelitian kualitatif deskriptif ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis penentuan harga pokok produksi (HPP) dan harga jual kompetitif kue tar menggunakan metode Full Costing pada Toko Kue Hum’aisyah Cake di Kabupaten Dompu, Nusa Tenggara Barat. Data primer diperoleh melalui observasi dan wawancara langsung, sedangkan data sekunder bersumber dari laporan keuangan usaha.

Terdapat selisih sebesar Rp2.295.000 secara total atau Rp10.000 per unit. Selisih ini terjadi karena metode sederhana milik perusahaan belum memperhitungkan seluruh unsur biaya produksi, khususnya biaya overhead pabrik secara rinci.

This study investigates the relationship between green practices and corporate tax avoidance, focusing on green accounting, environmental performance, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) among 19 Indonesian publicly listed companies from 2021 to 2024. The research aims to examine whether environmentally responsible strategies influence firms’ tax behavior and how sustainability practices mediate this relationship. A quantitative approach was employed, collecting data from corporate financial statements, ESG reports, and sustainability disclosures. The analysis included descriptive statistics, correlation tests, and pooled ordinary least squares regression to explore the effects of green accounting, environmental performance, and CSR on the effective tax rate (ETR) as a proxy for tax avoidance. Results indicate that green accounting is positively associated with higher ETR, suggesting reduced tax avoidance, while CSR negatively impacts ETR, implying that sustainability initiatives can be strategically used to mask aggressive tax planning. Environmental performance alone does not significantly affect tax behavior. These findings highlight the importance of transparency through green accounting to promote ethical tax practices, while cautioning that CSR may serve as a reputational tool rather than a mechanism for reducing tax avoidance. The study contributes to theoretical understanding in sustainability and corporate governance and offers practical insights for policymakers and corporate managers to align environmental and fiscal responsibilities.

Digital technology advancements have greatly changed how small businesses manage their finances. This change is not only about recording transactions, but it also affects financial control, report preparation, and business decision making. Accounting Information System (SIA) came about as a solution to help small and medium businesses easily, organize, and accurately record their finances, as well as provide reliable financial information. This study aims to explain the role of the Accounting Information System in making it easier to manage the finances of small and medium businesses in the digital age, the benefits gained from using it, and the challenges faced during its implementation. The method used in this research is a literature review, which involves examining books, journals, and other related scientific publications, followed by analysis using a descriptive qualitative approach. Research findings show that using a digital-based Accounting Information System can improve business efficiency, speed up financial reporting, increase transparency, and make it easier for small and medium-sized businesses to get funding access. However, the implementation of the Accounting Information System still faces challenges such as a lack of technological understanding, limited infrastructure, and high implementation costs. Therefore, collaboration and support from various parties are needed to ensure the accounting information system is implemented effectively and sustainably in small and medium businesses.

The increasing emphasis on sustainable business practices has encouraged companies to integrate environmental and social responsibilities into their strategic and financial decision-making processes. This study investigates the influence of Green Accounting on Firm Value and examines the moderating role of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) within the Triple Bottom Line framework. A quantitative research design was employed using panel data from 23 energy, mining, and infrastructure companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period, resulting in 69 firm-year observations. Secondary data were collected from annual reports and sustainability reports and analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The findings indicate that Green Accounting does not have a significant direct effect on Firm Value, while CSR also shows no significant direct influence. Furthermore, CSR is unable to significantly moderate the relationship between Green Accounting and Firm Value. These results suggest that sustainability initiatives implemented by Indonesian companies have not yet generated measurable short-term financial benefits, although they may contribute to long-term corporate legitimacy, stakeholder trust, and sustainable competitiveness. The study provides practical implications for corporate managers, investors, and policymakers by emphasizing the importance of strengthening sustainability reporting quality and integrating environmental and social strategies into long-term corporate value creation.

Corruption committed by the leader of an independent state oversight institution represents a paradox that fundamentally undermines the legitimacy of government governance. This study examines the case of Hery Susanto, Chairman of the Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia, who was designated as a corruption suspect by the Attorney General's Office on April 16, 2026—merely six days after his inauguration—in connection with alleged bribery of Rp1.5 billion from PT Toshida Sulawesi Hijau Indonesia involving the management of Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP) in the nickel mining sector for the period 2013–2025. This study aims to analyze the manifestation of the three elements of the Fraud Triangle—pressure, opportunity, and rationalization—within this case, and to formulate systemic implications for corruption prevention in independent state institutions. Employing a normative-empirical legal research approach with a case study method, data were collected through documentation and qualitative content analysis of legal documents, official press releases from the Attorney General's Office, and verified media reports. The findings reveal that pressure stemmed from financial motivation and career ambition; opportunity arose from weak internal oversight mechanisms, the perpetrator's strategic position, and regulatory gaps in Law Number 37 of 2008; while rationalization manifested through cognitive justification that framed the receipt of compensation as a reasonable reward for services rendered. This study contributes to the literature on forensic accounting and corruption criminology, while recommending the establishment of an independent Ombudsman Supervisory Board and the strengthening of a digital-based early detection system.

This community-based project aimed to analyze the cash management system of the micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) Bakpia Juwara Satoe and develop recommendations to improve the company's financial performance. Cash management is a crucial but often overlooked aspect of MSME financial management, which can lead to cash flow problems, inaccurate record keeping, and poor management decisions. The methodology used included qualitative data collection through direct observation, in-depth interviews, and financial statement analysis. The project findings revealed that Bakpia Juwara Satoe lacked a functioning cash management system. There was no separation between cash receipts and disbursements, no standardized system for handling cash, and transaction recording remained manual and inconsistent. As part of the project, standard operating procedures (SOP) for cash management were developed, financial accounting training was conducted, and support was provided in creating simple cash flow statements. Following the implementation of these measures, record accuracy increased by 78%, and cash losses were reduced. It was determined that the implementation of efficient cash management contributed significantly to the improvement of Bakpia Juwara Satoe's financial performance.

This research was conducted to examine the implementation of the Accurate system in recording cement purchase transactions at PT. XYZ and to evaluate its effectiveness in supporting the company's operational activities. A qualitative approach was employed, emphasizing the analysis of descriptive data in the form of words and documents. The study was carried out using a case study method to obtain an in-depth understanding of the phenomenon being investigated. During the internship period, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation techniques. Research shows that the Accurate system helps companies record purchases in a more organised, faster and more accurate way than the manual method using Microsoft Excel. The Accurate system can automatically record purchase invoices, business debts, suppliers and the inventory of goods. This makes the accounting department more efficient. Accurate helps to reduce the risk of recording errors and makes it easier to find transaction data. However, when it is being used, there are still several problems, such as delays in entering transaction data, mistakes when entering names or account numbers, and being unable to change invoices after a certain amount of time. To get around these problems, the company checks the transaction data again and makes sure that the recording process is more consistent. Research results show that the Accurate system is effective in PT. XYZ can help make sure that the process of recording cement purchases is effective and efficient. It can also help make sure that financial information is more accurate and joined up.

This study aims to assess the financial performance of 11 non-financial companies that conducted acquisitions in 2025 and are listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Using a quantitative descriptive-comparative approach with a case study design, six financial ratios were analyzed: Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Total Asset Turnover (TATO), Return on Assets (ROA), and Return on Equity (ROE). Data were obtained from consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024 (pre-acquisition) and December 31, 2025 (post-acquisition). The results show that the impact of acquisitions varies across companies. No consistent or significant differences were found in the CR, DAR, DER, ROA, or ROE ratios between the two periods. Meanwhile, the TATO ratio tended to decrease after the acquisition, indicating that the newly consolidated assets have not yet operated optimally. These findings confirm that the short-term financial impact of an acquisition is heavily influenced by the transaction’s funding structure, the size of the acquired entity, and the industry sector. This study contributes to the financial accounting literature on corporate acquisition strategies in the Indonesian capital market.

This study aims to examine the implementation of Interpretation of Financial Accounting Standards (ISAK) 335 in the financial management of non-profit foundations in Tanah Datar Regency, particularly in Rambatan and Sungai Tarab Districts. The study employed a qualitative case study approach using semi-structured interviews with financial managers from four foundations: Yayasan SLB Az-Zahra, Yayasan Darul Ulum/Darul Hafazah, Yayasan Daarut Tahfidz Al-Sulaiman, and Yayasan Jabal Rahmah. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify the level of ISAK 335 implementation and the factors affecting its adoption. The findings reveal that none of the foundations have implemented ISAK 335 in preparing their financial statements. The main obstacles include the limited availability of personnel with accounting expertise, simple bookkeeping practices focused only on cash inflows and outflows, inadequate understanding of accounting standards for non-profit entities, and dependence on a single source of operational funding. Consequently, the financial statements do not comply with applicable accounting standards, resulting in low levels of transparency, accountability, and financial information quality. This study recommends enhancing the capacity of financial managers through training, gradually adopting ISAK 335, utilizing digital bookkeeping systems, and diversifying funding sources to strengthen accountable financial governance and ensure organizational sustainability.

This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy and financial behavior on personal financial management and to examine the differences in financial literacy, financial behavior, and personal financial management among accounting students across semesters at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Tanjungpura. This research employed a quantitative approach using descriptive and verificative methods. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 118 respondents consisting of 30 second-semester students, 34 fourth-semester students, and 54 sixth-semester students. Data analysis was conducted using validity tests, reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, and the Kruskal-Wallis test with the assistance of IBM SPSS Statistics 27. The results showed that financial literacy and financial behavior have a positive and significant effect on students’ personal financial management. Furthermore, the Kruskal-Wallis test indicated that there were no significant differences in the levels of financial literacy, financial behavior, and personal financial management among second-, fourth-, and sixth-semester students.

Food waste is still a significant problem, affecting food security, the environment, and the global economy. More than 53% of food produced becomes waste. Food waste worldwide totals 1.3 trillion annually. One of the districts with a high food waste rate is Banyumas. The most significant contributor to waste in the Banyumas region in 2021 was food waste, accounting for 39.85%, with much of it generated by restaurants. Restaurants play an essential role in managing food waste, as most food discarded at the preparation stage cannot be reused. This study aims to analyze the relationship between demographics and food waste reduction to support a digital technology approach from a restaurant perspective. This study used quantitative methods. The respondents of this study were 100 restaurants located in Banyumas, including A La Carte, Ramesan, Tegal, and Padang, and the data were analyzed using ANOVA. The results show that demographic factors, including income, age, restaurant opening hours, and the prices of best-selling foods, influence food waste in restaurants. The recommendation is for restaurants to prepare and plan menus. This will affect food prices, opening hours, and revenue. Some restaurants can increase their knowledge of handling food waste.

This study investigates the practice of the accounting profession with the aim of identifying the key threats and challenges that hinder its development in Nigeria. To achieve this objective, three hypotheses were formulated and tested using the chi-square statistical technique to examine the relationship between identified challenges and the development of accounting practice in the country. The study drew on the perceptions of key stakeholders in the accounting field, namely academic accountants, professional accountants, and accounting regulators. Primary data were collected and analyzed, and the results revealed that the accounting profession is confronted with significant challenges that negatively influence its growth and development. The study concludes that these constraints may pose serious risks to the future advancement of the profession in Nigeria. It therefore recommends that academic and professional accountants should remain committed and proactive in advancing accounting knowledge and practice, while regulatory bodies should ensure objectivity, transparency, and fairness in the formulation and enforcement of accounting standards and regulations

This study aims to describe the implementation of Islamic school culture in shaping the religious character of students at SMK Islam Insan Mulia. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach based on interview transcripts with three students from different vocational programs, namely Mechanical Engineering, Accounting, and Culinary Arts. Data were analyzed through data condensation, thematic coding, data presentation, and interpretive conclusion drawing to obtain a comprehensive understanding of students’ experiences. The findings indicate that Islamic school culture is implemented through religious routines, student discipline, teacher guidance, ethical vocational learning, and the development of a clean and orderly school environment. These practices contribute to the formation of religious character, which is reflected in students’ worship awareness, moral responsibility, honesty in learning, discipline, cooperation, and future orientation. The study also identified several challenges, including limited student independence, peer dependence in group assignments, and the gradual development of facilities in a new vocational program. These findings suggest that Islamic school culture needs to be managed consistently through habituation, teacher role modeling, continuous monitoring, and integration with vocational competencies. The study implies that strengthening Islamic school culture can support both religious character formation and vocational readiness among students.

Anemia during pregnancy remains a common health problem and may lead to adverse outcomes for both mother and fetus. Hemoglobin and erythrocyte indices examination are important to identify anemia and describe erythrocyte morphology in pregnant women. This study aimed to describe hemoglobin levels and erythrocyte indices among anemic pregnant women at Sentosa Maternity Hospital. This research used a descriptive design with secondary data obtained from hematological examination results of pregnant women who underwent laboratory testing at Sentosa Maternity Hospital from January to December 2023. Data were analyzed descriptively and presented in frequency distribution tables. The results showed that out of 58 pregnant women undergoing hematological examination, 28 women (48%) were anemic with a mean hemoglobin level of 10.2 g/dL, while 30 women (52%) had normal hemoglobin levels with a mean of 12.8 g/dL. Based on erythrocyte indices, most anemic pregnant women had microcytic hypochromic anemia, accounting for 19 women (67%) with mean MCV of 72.3 fL, MCH of 29.8 pg, and MCHC of 33.9 g/dL, whereas 9 women (33%) had normocytic normochromic anemia with mean MCV of 83.4 fL, MCH of 29.6 pg, and MCHC of 33.4 g/dL. It can be concluded that nearly half of the examined pregnant women experienced anemia, with microcytic hypochromic anemia being the most dominant type.

The purpose of this community service activity was to improve the financial accountability of cooperatives by developing a PERSUS on the KPUD Kieskendo in Panunggalan Village, Pulokulon District, Grobogan Regency. The activity was conducted through a workshop and mentoring session involving the cooperative's management and supervisory board. It began with a presentation on the importance of financial accountability, good cooperative governance, and the implementation of SAK EP. The identification results indicated that the cooperative lacked a written accounting policy for internal oversight, financial reporting, and transaction recording. Next, the community service team drafted a PERSUS, which regulates financial reporting, cash and bank management, loan receivables, the formation of CKPN, internal supervision, related party transactions, and fraud prevention. To align the policy with the cooperative's operational needs, discussions on the draft were conducted through participatory, article-by-article discussions. The results of the activity indicated that the management and supervisory board had a better understanding of the benefits of accounting policies for increasing transparency and accountability in cooperative management. It is hoped that the PERSUS will serve as an official guideline for creating more professional, transparent, and sustainable cooperative governance.

The rapid expansion of digital finance services, particularly Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) platforms such as Shopee PayLater, has significantly altered consumption patterns among university students. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Shopee PayLater usage and lifestyle on consumptive behavior, as to test the moderating role of financial literacy among Accounting Education students at Universitas Negeri Semarang (class of 2022). A quantitative explanatory approach was employed, with data collected via Likert-scale questionnaires distributed to 63 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4. Results show that Shopee PayLater usage positively and significantly affects consumptive behavior (path coefficient = 0.440, p = 0.000), as does lifestyle (path coefficient = 0.408, p = 0.003). Financial literacy, however, does not directly influence consumptive behavior (p = 0.676). Notably, financial literacy significantly strengthens—rather than weakens—the effect of lifestyle on consumptive behavior (interaction coefficient = 0.253, p = 0.019), while it does not moderate the relationship between Shopee PayLater usage and consumptive behavior (p = 0.712). These findings contribute theoretically by extending the Theory of Planned Behavior, demonstrating that BNPL accessibility and lifestyle orientation are stronger predictors of consumptive behavior than financial knowledge alone. Practically, this study suggests that financial literacy interventions must be accompanied by self-regulation strengthening and consumer protection policies to effectively curb excessive consumption driven by digital credit services.

This study aims to examine the effect of accounting system digitalization, financial literacy, and financial management on the sustainability of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Medan Tembung District. This research uses a quantitative method with an associative approach. The population in this study consists of all MSMEs in Medan Tembung District, totaling 48 MSMEs; therefore, a saturated sampling technique was used, meaning all population members were selected as the sample. The data used are primary data collected through questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistical tests, validity tests, reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing with the assistance of SPSS version 26. The results show that accounting system digitalization has a positive and significant effect on MSME sustainability. Financial literacy also has a positive and significant effect and is the most dominant variable influencing MSME sustainability. In addition, financial management has a positive and significant effect on MSME sustainability. Simultaneously, the three variables significantly affect MSME sustainability in Medan Tembung District. The coefficient of determination indicates that the independent variables explain most of the variation in MSME sustainability, while the remaining variation is influenced by other factors outside this study. Therefore, it can be concluded that MSME sustainability is strongly influenced by the implementation of accounting system digitalization, the level of financial literacy, and the financial management capabilities of business owners.

This study aims to analyze the financial management practices of the Es Degan Bu Ulfa MSME and their compliance with the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small, and Medium Entities (SAK EMKM). The study used a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were obtained through interviews and observations, then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively.   This study aims to analyze the financial management practices of the Es Degan Bu Ulfa MSME and their compliance with the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small, and Medium Entities (SAK EMKM). The study used a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were obtained through interviews and observations, then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The results indicate that financial management is still carried out simply and does not yet implement written records. Business income and expenses still rely on memory, even though business owners perform daily profit and loss calculations and separate personal and business finances. The main obstacles faced include limited human resources and a low understanding of financial record keeping and the SAK EMKM. Based on the analysis, financial management practices are not fully compliant with SAK EMKM standards. Therefore, the implementation of simple financial record keeping is necessary to structure business financial information and support business decision-making. Proper financial management can help improve business performance, monitor cash flow, evaluate profitability, and enhance accountability. Furthermore, the application of SAK EMKM is expected to facilitate access to financing and strengthen the sustainability and competitiveness of MSMEs in an increasingly competitive business environment.

Tuberculosis (TBC) in children remains a serious public health problem in Indonesia, with the 0–14 age group accounting for 16.2% of total notified cases in 2024. The uneven distribution of cases across provinces is thought to be influenced by various social determinants, yet spatial studies specifically on childhood TBC at the national level remain scarce. This study aimed to analyze the spatial pattern of childhood tuberculosis cases and social determinants in Indonesia in 2024 using a spatial ecological design across 38 provinces. Analysis included descriptive statistics, thematic mapping using QGIS, Moran's I test, and Local Indicator of Spatial Association (LISA) with queen contiguity weighting matrix. Results showed a strong positive spatial autocorrelation with a Moran's I value of 0.612. High-high clusters were identified in DKI Jakarta, Central Java, Banten, and West Java, which simultaneously recorded high population density and low primary healthcare ratios. Territory-based interventions should be prioritized in these hotspot provinces.
