Magelang City faces the challenge of limited land availability, with a total area of only 18.58 km2 and a high population density. Consequently, telecommunications infrastructure development requires a precise strategy. This study aims to analyze the business model and investment feasibility of Pole and Greenfield type telecommunication towers in Magelang City. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, this research processes secondary data from PT Dayamitra Telekomunikasi Indonesia by applying feasibility analysis based on Life Cycle Costing (LCC), Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Break-Even Point (BEP), Payback Period (PP), and Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR). The results indicate significant differences in cost structures; Pole towers proved to be more efficient, requiring an initial capital outlay of only 28.8% of the total capital required for Greenfield towers. Greenfield towers generated an NPV of Rp13.07 billion with an IRR of 20%, while Pole towers generated an NPV of Rp2.46 billion with a higher IRR of 23%. Pole towers have proven to offer a faster return on investment and better operational cost efficiency, making them the most strategic option to support network densification and the implementation of 5G technology in urban areas with spatial constraints like Magelang City.

Tobacco is a leading commodity that forms the foundation of the rural economy, but its cultivation faces challenges in the form of labour intensity, significant capital requirements, and farmers' lack of understanding of systematic cost structures. This study aims to analyse the production cost structure and evaluate the economic efficiency of tobacco farming managed by the Batu Daun Farmer Group in Batuan Village, Sumenep Regency.

The results of this digital marketing mentoring and cash flow-based bookkeeping preparation are able to prove that MSMEs in Ciawi village can know the details about digital marketing and digital finance regarding the calculation of financial reports, especially knowing the actual profit and loss report, and cash flow of cash expenditures and cash income.

This study aims to analyze the profitability and feasibility of sheep farming using intensive and semi-intensive rearing sistems in Suka Raya Village, Pancur Batu Sub-district. The research employed a survey method with purposive sampling, involving 16 farmers (8 intensive and 8 semi-intensive), each rearing more than 15 sheep and operating for at least 3 years. Data were collected through questionnaire interviews and field observations, then analyzed descriptively to calculate production costs, revenue, income, R/C ratio, and Break Even Point (BEP). Results showed that the average total production cost for the intensive sistem was Rp 52,429,313, higher than the semi-intensive sistem at Rp 39,664,375. The average revenue for the intensive sistem was Rp 69,150,000, while the semi-intensive sistem was Rp 63,712,500. The average income for intensive farmers was Rp 16,720,688, compared to Rp 24,048,125 for semi-intensive farmers. The average R/C ratio for the intensive sistem was 1 (near break-even), while the semi-intensive sistem was 2 (more efficient and profitable). BEP analysis indicated higher sales for the intensive sistem (Rp 844,022/sheep/period) compared to the semi-intensive sistem (Rp 691,052/sheep/period), with a larger production BEP for the intensive sistem (44 sheep) than the semi-intensive sistem (33 sheep). The semi-intensive sistem is recommended for farmers with limited capital and small to medium-scale operations due to lower costs and higher profit margins, while the intensive sistem is more suitable for large-scale operations with adequate capital, feed management, and health care.

Break-even point analysis is conducted to assess a company's performance, providing insight into the importance of financial bookkeeping and economic analysis. It can also be used as a consideration for entrepreneurs in making decisions related to sales activities. Break-even point refers to a concept used in financial planning to determine the level of sales or revenue required to cover all costs and expenses, resulting in zero profit or loss. The PKM training is conducted in three stages: the preparation stage, where an initial survey is conducted to determine participants' knowledge of the Break-Even Point (BEP) calculation. The implementation stage, where training is provided to all fishermen on the BEP calculation. The monitoring and evaluation stage, where the implementation of the BEP calculation is monitored and the fishermen's understanding of the break-even point is evaluated. Break-even point (BEP) training is expected to improve business owners' and crew members' understanding of the BEP concept and enable them to apply BEP calculations in decision-making.

This community service activity aims to improve the financial literacy of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) through targeted training in calculating the Break Even Point (BEP) as a financial control tool. BEP, or break-even point, is the specific point at which total revenue equals total costs, allowing businesses to determine the minimum sales volume required to avoid losses. The activity was held in the Curug Tourism Village in Bogor Regency, with 27 MSMEs from various business sectors actively participating. The implementation method included outreach, training sessions, practical BEP calculations using participants' actual business data, and post-training mentoring to ensure long-term learning. The results of the activity demonstrated a significant improvement in participants' understanding of the BEP concept and its practical application in determining selling prices, production volumes, and cost control. Therefore, the application of BEP analysis is a crucial and effective strategy in supporting the sustainability and operational efficiency of MSME businesses.
