Abstract

This study explores the impact of entrepreneurship education and motivation on students' entrepreneurial intentions, with creativity serving as a mediating factor. The research adopts a quantitative approach, focusing on how these elements influence entrepreneurial interest among students in an entrepreneurship study program. The findings indicate that both entrepreneurship education and motivation have a direct and significant impact on students' entrepreneurial intentions. However, the study also reveals that while entrepreneurship education and motivation are crucial, their effect on creativity does not show a significant direct influence. Nonetheless, creativity does play an important indirect role, mediating the relationship between entrepreneurship education, motivation, and entrepreneurial interest. These insights can be valuable for educators and lecturers, highlighting the need to guide and inspire students not only in gaining knowledge but also in fostering a genuine interest in business management. This approach ensures that students are equipped with the necessary skills and motivation to pursue and develop their own business ventures, thereby enhancing their entrepreneurial potential.

Abstract

This study examines whether benchmark gold prices affect profit achievement in a state-owned pawn and gold-financing company. Using branch-level financial statements for 2020–2024, we estimate a single-factor ordinary least squares model to test the association between gold price movements and profitability. The results show a positive and statistically significant relationship, indicating that higher gold prices are associated with improved profits—consistent with collateral value uplift, trading spreads, and product demand dynamics in gold-backed lending. Managerially, the findings suggest the need for agile pricing policies, transparent customer communication on gold price pass-through, and strengthened risk management to handle volatility. The study contributes firm-level evidence on price–profit linkages in gold-backed retail finance. Limitations include a single-firm, single-factor design; future research should incorporate cost structures, fee income, macroeconomic controls, and asymmetric/lagged effects to better map the transmission from commodity prices to financial performance.
