Non-profit organization financial reports are a form of accountability to stakeholders, especially donors and the community. This research aims to analyze the suitability of applying ISAK 335 in preparing financial reports at the Humanitarian Foundation. The research uses qualitative methods with a descriptive approach through documentation and document analysis. The research results show that the implementation of ISAK 335 can increase the transparency and accountability of financial reports, although there are still obstacles such as limited understanding of accounting standards and a simple recording system. Financial reports in accordance with ISAK 335 are expected to provide a clearer picture of the financial position and activities of nonprofit organizations. Among the challenges identified is the lack of human resources trained in the application of this accounting standard. Therefore, training and coaching for organizational financial managers is essential. Furthermore, the development of a more modern and integrated financial recording system is also needed to support greater transparency and accountability.

This study aims to analyze the effect of education level on the quality of financial statements based on SAK EMKM, with accounting information systems as a moderating variable, focusing on coffee shop micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Kediri City, Indonesia. A quantitative approach was employed using primary data collected through structured questionnaires distributed to 32 business owners or financial managers selected by purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with SPSS software.The results indicate that education level has a positive and significant effect on the quality of financial statements, suggesting that higher educational attainment enhances accounting understanding and compliance with SAK EMKM. However, accounting information systems were found to weaken this relationship, indicating that system complexity, limited digital literacy, and insufficient technical training may reduce the effectiveness of education in improving financial reporting quality. These findings highlight that improving financial reporting quality among MSMEs requires not only higher educational capacity but also appropriate technological support and continuous technical assistance. This study contributes to the accounting literature by emphasizing the contextual role of accounting information systems in shaping the relationship between human capital and financial reporting quality in MSMEs.

This article aims to provide a comprehensive literature review on how professional ethics can serve as an effective strategy to prevent fund misuse within organizational financial management. Professional ethics is viewed as a set of moral values, behavioral norms, and professional standards that guide financial managers to perform their duties with honesty, responsibility, and without conflicts of interest. In the context of financial management, these duties include recording, budgeting, monitoring, and reporting financial activities, all of which require accuracy and transparency. The study highlights five main principles of professional ethics: integrity, objectivity, professional competence, confidentiality, and professional behavior. These principles clarify rules, strengthen accountability, and ensure that financial processes comply with established standards. The literature review shows that applying professional ethics not only encourages individuals to act correctly but also enhances responsibility, improves performance, and strengthens financial oversight. Integrity and objectivity play a crucial role in preventing report manipulation, budget inflation, and fund misuse, as these principles demand moral courage and fair decision-making. Professional competence ensures that every financial process is carried out accurately and in accordance with regulations, while confidentiality protects sensitive information from misuse. Professional behavior emphasizes adherence to laws, organizational policies, and professional standards. The article also identifies several supporting factors that enable the effective implementation of professional ethics, such as strong internal policies, leadership commitment to integrity, an ethical workplace culture, layered supervision systems, and continuous ethics training. Conversely, common challenges include weak internal controls, limited understanding of ethics, organizational pressure, conflicts of interest, and inconsistent application of ethical standards. Therefore, this article underscores that integrating professional ethics into organizational financial policies, procedures, and management systems is a key step in preventing fund misuse and strengthening stakeholder trust in the organization’s transparency and accountability.

This study examines the application of Financial Accounting Standards Statement 45 on Financial Reporting of Non-Profit Entities at the Istiqomah Foundation, which operates in the education sector. Non-profit organizations, especially educational foundations, require an accountable financial reporting system to maintain stakeholder trust. The purpose of this study is to analyze the conformity of the Istiqomah Foundation's accounting practices with PSAK 45 standards and to identify obstacles encountered in its implementation. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results show that the Istiqomah Foundation has prepared a statement of financial position and activity report, but there are still deficiencies in the presentation of the cash flow statement and notes to the financial statements. The classification of net assets is not fully in accordance with the provisions of PSAK 45, which distinguishes between permanently restricted, temporarily restricted, and unrestricted net assets. The main obstacles found include limited human resources who understand non-profit accounting and the absence of an adequate computerized accounting system. The study recommends the need for non-profit accounting training for foundation financial managers and the development of an accounting information system that is appropriate to the characteristics of non-profit educational entities.

Profitability is one of the key indicators in assessing a company's ability to generate profits and plays a crucial role in financial decision-making. According to the pecking order theory, companies with high profitability tend to prefer using internal funds and reduce reliance on debt. This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability on debt policy, as well as to examine the role of dividend policy as a moderating variable in this relationship. The study employed Slovin’s formula for sample selection and analyzed 263 non-financial publicly listed companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in 2023. The data used in this research were secondary data obtained from annual financial reports published on the official website of the IDX or the respective company websites. Profitability was measured using return on assets (ROA), debt policy was measured by the debt-to-equity ratio (DER), and dividend policy was measured by the dividend payout ratio (DPR). The analytical method used in this study was multiple linear regression analysis with the help of the SPSS software. The results indicate that profitability has a negative effect on debt policy, meaning that the more profitable a company is, the less likely it is to depend on debt financing. Additionally, the findings suggest that dividend policy does not significantly moderate the relationship between profitability and debt policy. This implies that whether a company distributes dividends or not does not meaningfully influence how profitability affects its debt decisions. These results are in line with the pecking order theory and provide insight for corporate financial managers in planning funding structures. It also emphasizes the importance of internally generated funds for companies with strong earnings performance.

This study provides a comprehensive synthesis of ten SINTA-accredited journal articles (levels 1–3) published from 2019 to 2024, examining how a low-interest-rate policy environment affects corporate capital structure in Indonesia. We focus on internal determinants (profitability, firm size, asset composition) versus external factors (market interest rates) in shaping firms’ debt ratios. The meta-analysis results indicate that although low interest rates statistically encourage higher leverage (average coefficient +0.28), internal firm characteristics remain the dominant drivers of capital structure decisions. Approximately 80% of studies report that more profitable firms tend to reduce debt ratios, consistent with the pecking order theory. In the post-pandemic context, low rates initially facilitated cheap borrowing, but heightened economic uncertainty underscores the need for managers to align funding strategy with each firm’s risk profile. The study draws practical implications: financial managers should calibrate capital structure in line with profitability and market volatility, while regulators should monitor corporate debt growth to safeguard financial stability. The findings also suggest directions for future research on how evolving macroeconomic conditions influence corporate finance in Indonesia.

This study aims to analyze the impact of dividend policy, interest rates, and inflation on the stock prices of financial sector companies in Yogyakarta. The data used are secondary data obtained from company financial reports and macroeconomic indicators over a specific period. The analytical method employed is multiple linear regression to determine the extent to which the independent variables affect stock prices as the dependent variable. The results indicate that dividend policy has a significant positive effect on stock prices, while interest rates and inflation have a negative impact. These findings provide important implications for investors and financial managers in formulating investment strategies and dividend policies, as well as in considering macroeconomic conditions in financial decision-making within the financial sector.

Village regulations are set out in Law No. 6/2014, which explains that a village has the authority to regulate and oversee the needs of the community, including the authority to manage their own finances.

This study aims to critically analyze how accounting policies implemented in insurance companies contribute to effective risk management and overall financial stability. As the business environment becomes increasingly complex and competitive, insurance firms must adopt robust accounting policies that not only facilitate accurate financial reporting but also enhance their ability to identify, assess, and manage various risks. By employing a mixed-methods approach that integrates both qualitative and quantitative data, this research will explore the intricate relationships between accounting policies, risk management strategies, and their subsequent impact on the financial performance of insurance companies. The study will first provide a theoretical framework that outlines the significance of sound accounting practices in the context of risk management. It will then delve into empirical analysis through case studies of selected insurance companies, assessing how their accounting policies influence risk assessment and mitigation processes. Data will be collected via surveys and interviews with key stakeholders, including financial managers, risk officers, and auditors, to gather insights on the effectiveness of these policies in practice. Furthermore, this research will evaluate the correlation between specific accounting practices and key performance indicators, such as profitability, solvency, and liquidity ratios. By identifying best practices and potential areas for improvement, the study aims to offer practical recommendations that can enhance the alignment between accounting policies and risk management efforts. Ultimately, this research seeks to contribute to the existing literature on accounting and risk management in the insurance sector, providing valuable insights that can inform policy formulation and strategic decision-making within the industry. Through this comprehensive evaluation, the study aspires to foster a deeper understanding of how effective accounting policies can serve as a foundation for robust risk management frameworks, thereby promoting long-term financial stability in insurance companies.

The purpose of this study is to see how the understanding of financial planning, financial management, and the implementation of PSAK 109 impact the way zakat organizations in Madiun Karesidenan report their finances. This research is quantitative and uses multiple linear regression analysis. The research shows that the implementation of PSAK 109 does not affect the financial reporting of zakat organizations; instead, the understanding of financial planners and financial managers improves financial reporting. This shows that financial planners and financial managers still do a poor job in understanding and implementing Islamic financial accounting standards (PSAK 109). This study suggests that financial planners and financial managers should be trained and educated about PSAK 109. In addition, zakat organizations should be trained and assisted in the implementation of PSAK 109 to obtain accountable financial statements
