This study aims to examine the effect of working capital efficiency and leverage on profitability and its implications for firm value in manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2025 period. The post-COVID-19 pandemic condition has increased operational risks for manufacturing companies due to fluctuations in interest rates, exchange rates, cash management, inventories, and receivables. Therefore, companies are required to implement more effective financial strategies to maintain competitiveness. Profitability is positioned as an intervening variable because previous studies showed inconsistent results regarding the relationship between working capital efficiency, leverage, profitability, and firm value. This research uses a quantitative approach with path analysis to examine direct and indirect relationships among variables. The population consists of all manufacturing companies listed on the IDX, while the sample includes 45 companies selected from 270 firms using purposive sampling based on specific criteria, such as consistent listing and financial performance. The results indicate that working capital efficiency has a significant positive effect on profitability, leverage has a significant negative effect on profitability, profitability significantly increases firm value, and profitability fully mediates the effect of working capital efficiency and leverage on firm value. These findings provide theoretical and practical implications for managers and investors in financial decision-making.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Good Corporate Governance (GCG), Firm Size, and Sales Growth on Financial Performance at PT Ace Hardware Indonesia Tbk listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2015–2024 period. Good Corporate Governance (GCG) in this study is proxied by institutional ownership, financial performance is measured using Return on Assets (ROA), firm size is measured by the natural logarithm of total assets, and sales growth is measured using the sales growth ratio. This study employed a quantitative method with a descriptive approach. The data used were secondary data in the form of annual financial statements obtained from the official websites of the IDX and the company. Data analysis techniques included descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple and simple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing consisting of t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination with the assistance of SPSS version 27 software. The results of the study indicate that partially, the Good Corporate Governance (GCG) variable has a t-value of -1.526 < t-table 2.447, meaning that it has no significant effect on financial performance. The firm size variable has a t-value of -2.857 > t-table 2.447, indicating a significant negative effect on the company’s financial performance. The sales growth variable has a t-value of 1.593 < t-table 2.447, meaning that it has no significant effect on financial performance. Simultaneously, Good Corporate Governance (GCG), firm size, and sales growth have a significant effect on financial performance, with an F-value of 13.023 > F-table 4.76 and a significance value of 0.005 < 0.05. This study is expected to provide consideration for management and investors in decision-making and serve as a reference for future research in related fields.

This study aims to analyze the effect of financial literacy and the use of accounting information on the financial performance of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), with financing as a moderating variable. The research sample consists of 100 MSME owners or managers located in Gresik City, specifically in Gresik, Kebomas, and Manyar Districts, selected using purposive sampling based on predetermined criteria. Hypothesis testing was conducted using the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method with the assistance of SmartPLS software through a bootstrapping procedure and one-tailed testing. The results indicate that financial literacy and the use of accounting information have a positive and significant effect on MSME financial performance. In addition, financing is proven to strengthen the influence of financial literacy and accounting information on MSME financial performance. This study is expected to provide practical benefits for MSME actors in improving financial performance through better financial management and access to financing. The limitation of this study lies in the limited research area and the use of perception-based data.

This study aims to analyze the influence of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) mechanisms, proxied by the Board of Commissioners and Audit Committee, as well as Environmental Performance on Financial Performance in food and beverage manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2020-2023 period. The research method used is quantitative, with a purposive sampling technique that resulted in 22 companies as samples, totaling 88 observations over the four-year study period. The research data is secondary data obtained through financial statements and annual reports from the official IDX website. Literature reviews indicate inconsistencies in previous studies; however, the hypothesis of this research suggests that the Board of Commissioners, Audit Committee, and Environmental Performance have a positive and significant effect on the company's financial performance. The board of commissioners and audit committee play a role in strengthening the oversight function to minimize agency costs and improve efficiency. Meanwhile, good environmental performance, measured through PROPER ratings, is expected to enhance the company's positive image in the eyes of investors and stakeholders. 

The Indonesian Civil Servants Cooperative (KPRI) plays an important role in enhancing member welfare and supporting the national economy. Nevertheless, increases in business volume and own capital do not necessarily translate into higher profitability, while the number of members an essential characteristic of cooperatives is also assumed to influence financial performance. This study aims to examine the effect of business volume and own capital on cooperative profitability, with the number of members acting as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed using secondary data derived from the financial statements of KPRI in Bogor City during the 2020–2024 period. Purposive sampling was applied, resulting in 12 cooperatives with a total of 60 observations. Panel data regression analysis was conducted using EViews software, and mediation effects were tested using the Sobel test. The results indicate that business volume has a positive and significant effect on cooperative profitability, whereas own capital does not show a significant influence. The number of members has a negative and significant effect on profitability. Furthermore, the Sobel test confirms that the number of members does not mediate the relationship between business volume or own capital and cooperative profitability. These findings suggest that enhancing business activities and improving the quality of member participation are more critical for increasing cooperative profitability than merely expanding capital or membership size.

A healthy and sustainable company is the primary measure of financial performance. Approaches such as financial ratios are not sufficient to assess financial performance; methods that provide a more comprehensive picture of a company's economic value creation are also needed. Economic Value Added (EVA) is one method that can be used in performance measurement. This study aims to determine the financial performance of PT Astra Otoparts Tbk from 2020–2023 using the Economic Value Added (EVA) method, through a quantitative descriptive approach. The annual financial reports of PT Astra Otoparts Tbk from 2020 to 2023 obtained from the official website of the Indonesia Stock Exchange and the company's official website are the data used in this study. The financial performance of PT Astra Otoparts Tbk from 2020 to 2023 is considered good based on the results of the study, because the company was able to generate a positive EVA value each year, indicating that the company has succeeded in creating economic added value for shareholders and maintaining its business continuity.

This study aims to examine the effect of the board of directors, audit committee, and public accounting firm size on corporate financial performance. The population consists of manufacturing companies in the food and beverage sub-sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange and not delisted during the 2019–2023 period. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, resulting in 33 companies selected as research samples. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from company financial reports published by the Indonesia Stock Exchange and official corporate websites. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) version 25, applying multiple linear regression analysis to examine the relationships among the research variables. The results indicate that the board of directors and audit committee do not have a significant effect on financial performance. In contrast, the size of the public accounting firm has a positive effect on financial performance. These findings suggest that the quality and reputation of external auditors play an important role in enhancing corporate financial performance.  

This research seeks to analyze how balancing funds and Regional Original Revenue (PAD) contribute to regional financial performance through a literature review approach. The study is motivated by inconsistencies in prior findings as well as the crucial role of these two revenue components in strengthening the fiscal autonomy of local governments. The method applied involves a review of relevant academic studies published between 2022 and 2025, which were sourced from Google Scholar. The findings suggest that balancing funds are able to support improvements in financial performance when managed effectively, although their use may also lead to a higher level of dependence on the central government. In contrast, PAD generally shows a positive relationship with financial performance, as it represents a region’s capacity to generate and manage its own revenue, even though several studies report that its influence is not always statistically significant.Overall, this study highlights the need for optimizing PAD management alongside ensuring that balancing funds are allocated in an efficient and transparent manner, in order to achieve sustainable improvements in regional financial performance.

This study aims to examine the effect of liquidity, company growth, and company size on firm value, with profitability as a mediating variable. These three independent variables are seen as internal factors that, theoretically, can influence firm value, both directly and indirectly through financial performance. This study employs a quantitative approach, using multiple linear regression analysis, path analysis, and Sobel tests to examine the mediation effect. The results show that liquidity has a significant effect on profitability, while growth and company size do not have a significant impact. Furthermore, the findings indicate that liquidity, growth, and company size do not directly affect firm value. However, profitability was found to significantly influence firm value and can mediate the relationship between liquidity and firm value. In contrast, profitability does not mediate the effect of growth or company size on firm value. These findings contribute to understanding the importance of profitability as a factor influencing firm value and provide insights into how internal company factors affect financial performance and firm value.

Taxes play a vital role as the primary source of state revenue and a key instrument for financing national development through the State Budget (APBN). This study aims to analyze the determinants of tax compliance among Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME) taxpayers in Semarang City, with a particular focus on the effects of tax policy, subjective norms, and financial performance. A quantitative associative approach was employed, using primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to 100 MSME taxpayers selected via purposive sampling. The data was analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method with WarpPLS software. The results indicate that tax policy and subjective norms have a positive and significant effect on MSME tax compliance, while financial performance shows no significant effect. The adjusted R² value reveals that the model explains 87.2% of the variance in taxpayer compliance. To enhance MSME tax compliance, the government should simplify tax regulations, strengthen social norms through education and community engagement, and ensure consistent, transparent, and fair implementation of tax policies

Tax Management refers to a company’s efforts to manage its tax obligations efficiently and legally in order to optimize net income. This study aims to examine the effect of Fixed Asset Intensity and Leverage on Tax Management, with Profitability as a moderating variable, in mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2021–2024 period. This research is conducted because tax management practices are considered to potentially influence corporate profitability and financial performance. The study is grounded in Agency Theory and employs a quantitative approach. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, resulting in 28 companies observed over four years, with a total of 112 secondary data observations obtained from annual reports or financial statements. Data analysis was performed using EViews 13 with a Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) approach. The findings indicate that: (1) Fixed Asset Intensity has no significant effect on Tax Management; (2) Leverage has a significant negative effect on Tax Management; (3) Profitability does not moderate the relationship between Fixed Asset Intensity and Tax Management; and (4) Profitability strengthens the effect of Leverage on Tax Management.

Stocks represent a capital market instrument with the potential to generate high returns. When making investment decisions, investors typically assess various internal aspects of a company, including its financial performance. The objective of this study is to examine the influence of profitability, liquidity, and leverage ratios on stock prices in the Indonesian banking sector, with a particular focus on state-owned banks, in both partial and simultaneous regression models. The methodology employed is quantitative analysis, with a secondary data set being utilized. The sample was determined using a purposive sampling technique, covering four state-owned banks (BRI, BNI, Mandiri, and BTN) for the 2010-2024 period. The findings of the analysis demonstrate that profitability and leverage exert a substantial negative influence on the stock prices of these banking institutions, while the liquidity ratio does not demonstrate a significant effect. Concurrently, all three variables exert an influence on stock prices, with an R-squared value of 58%.

This study examines the relationship between risk disclosure levels and profitability in transportation companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2022–2024 period. The transportation industry is characterized by high exposure to operational, financial, regulatory, and market-related risks, which necessitates transparent and comprehensive communication regarding potential threats to business sustainability and long-term performance. Using a quantitative correlational approach, this study measures the level of risk disclosure through systematic content analysis of companies’ annual reports, while profitability is evaluated using the Return on Assets (ROA) indicator. The analysis is conducted to identify the extent to which transparent risk reporting contributes to improved financial outcomes. The findings indicate a significant positive relationship between risk disclosure and profitability, suggesting that companies providing more comprehensive and detailed risk information tend to achieve higher financial performance. Furthermore, the results demonstrate that transparency plays a crucial role in enhancing investor confidence, strengthening corporate governance, and supporting sustainable business practices, particularly in high-risk sectors such as transportation.

Traditional snack micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia face increasing market competition and rapidly changing consumer preferences, particularly among younger consumers seeking innovative and symbolic food experiences. This community engagement study aims to strengthen the profitability and sustainability of traditional snack MSMEs by integrating local flavor innovation with simple business governance practices. Using a participatory action research approach under the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) program in Palangka Raya, this study involved co-creation between students and local entrepreneurs in product development, production standardization, and basic financial management. Qualitative data were collected through participatory observation and stakeholder discussions, while quantitative data were obtained from sales records and simple financial reports. The results demonstrate that local flavor-based innovation, combined with standardized operating procedures and cost control mechanisms, improved product differentiation, operational efficiency, and financial performance. The intervention generated a positive net profit and strengthened the partner’s capacity for independent business management. This study contributes to the literature by positioning traditional food MSMEs as sites of cultural innovation and micro-governance, while supporting Sustainable Development Goals related to inclusive economic growth, cultural preservation, and responsible production.

This study aims to determine and analyze the effect of Corporate Social Responsibility, Green Accounting, Intellectual Capital, and Firm Size on Financial Performance with Good Corporate Governance as a moderating variable. This study was conducted on mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for a five-year period, namely 2020–2024. The study population consisted of 34 mining companies, with the sampling method using purposive sampling, resulting in 33 companies as research samples. The information used was derived from secondary sources, namely annual reports and sustainability reports.  Multiple linear regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) were used to analyze the data, with the assistance of EViews software. The results showed that Corporate Social Responsibility had a positive and significant effect on Financial Performance. Green Accounting and Intellectual Capital also had a positive and significant effect on Corporate Social Responsibility. Meanwhile, Firm Size had a positive but insignificant effect on Financial Performance. The results of the moderation test indicate that Good Corporate Governance is unable to moderate the influence of CSR, Green Accounting, Intellectual Capital, or Firm Size on Financial Performance. This finding suggests that increasing social responsibility, implementing green accounting, and managing intellectual capital can improve the financial performance of mining companies, but their effectiveness has not been strengthened by corporate governance mechanisms.
