<![CDATA[This study analyzes accountability in managing the Village Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBDes) of Padarincang Village, Serang Regency. A descriptive qualitative approach was used through document analysis, observation of budget-publication media, and semi-structured interviews with village financial officers, the village secretary, the Village Consultative Body (BPD), and a community representative. Analysis refers to Mardiasmo's five accountability stages: planning, implementation, administration, reporting, and responsibility. The findings show that administrative accountability has been supported by Musrenbang, RKPDes preparation, BPD deliberation, Siskeudes-based administration, public banners and the village website, and semester monitoring by subdistrict officials and village facilitators. The 2025 APBDes totaled Rp1,619,408,864.

The study integrates local budget data, field interviews, and five accountability indicators in one analytical framework.]]>
