Abstract

This article aims to study the optimality of government investment in capital accumulation in the Iraqi economy, focusing on the impact of taxes and non-oil revenues. The research problem lies in the fact that government spending, despite its increase after 2004, did not contribute sufficiently to raising the efficiency of the Iraqi economy and achieving social justice. The researcher used a number of statistical programs, namely (Microsoft Excel vs. 16, SPSS VS. 25, Eviews Vs. 12, Smart Pls 4). The results showed that increasing taxes negatively affects investment decisions, which hinders capital accumulation and reduces the efficiency of government spending, which requires improving investment efficiency and directing resources towards productive sectors such as agriculture and industry. The research came out with a number of recommendations, the most important of which is re-evaluating the tax system to reduce tax rates and enhance tax exemptions for investors, which contributes to attracting investment and achieving sustainable development. Balanced tax policies should also be formulated to ensure the achievement of government revenues without a significant negative impact on capital accumulation

Abstract

The West Surabaya Police Department represents a police organization in an urban area with a high level of task complexity. It exhibits significant variation in personnel performance, with some members still receiving ratings in the "sufficient" or even "poor" categories. The performance of Polri members is a fundamental factor in realizing a professional, effective, and integrity-based law enforcement institution. This study aims to analyze the influence of human resource quality, work motivation, and work discipline on personnel performance, with organizational culture as a mediating variable. The research approach was quantitative, using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 3.0. Data were collected from 70 respondents and analyzed to test validity, reliability, and structural relationships between variables. The results show that human resource quality, motivation, and work discipline have a significant influence on performance, both directly and indirectly through organizational culture. These findings emphasize the urgency of strengthening organizational culture to foster discipline, motivation, and human resource development, thereby improving police institutional performance

Abstract

Make Over is a premium local cosmetic brand widely known for its product quality and frequent collaborations with beauty influencers. Sales of Make Over products still lag behind those of other local brands, such as Wardah. This study aims to provide empirical evidence regarding the influence of product quality, beauty influencers, and brand image on consumer purchasing decisions for Make Over products in the Jakarta area. This study used a quantitative approach, with a small population and a sample of 230 respondents. Data collection was conducted through questionnaires, and the analysis method used was Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS). The results showed that the three independent variables of product quality, beauty influencers, and brand image had a positive effect on purchasing decisions. Brand image had the most significant influence, indicating that a strong, consistent brand perception is crucial in shaping consumer purchasing behavior. The managerial implications of these results are that Make Over needs to ensure product quality remains the main attraction for consumers, select credible beauty influencers who match the characteristics of the target market (those who have used Make Over products and are aged 20-35 years), and strengthen the brand image through consistent visual communication and promotions

Abstract

The competitiveness and performance of MSMEs remain suboptimal, despite their significant role in the economy. Specifically, this difference arises from the suboptimal implementation of product innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. To address this issue, this study aims to determine the relationships among product innovation, entrepreneurial orientation, and the performance of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), while considering competitive advantage as a mediating factor. An examination of 60 craft MSMEs in Magelang Regency was conducted using SmartPLS 4.0 and Partial Least Squares (PLS) software. The findings indicate that product innovation and an entrepreneurial mindset significantly improve MSME performance, both directly and indirectly through the utilization of competitive advantage. This insight underscores that a stronger entrepreneurial orientation and continuous product innovation can enhance competitive advantage, thereby improving overall performance. This research not only has academic value but also provides valuable suggestions for policymakers and MSME actors

Abstract

Using qualitative and quantitative analyses of data on GVC membership and Malaysia's GDP from 2000 to 2022, this study examines what GVCs are, their importance to economic growth, and how they influence it. The underlying premise of this study is that GVC membership positively contributes to economic development. Did GVC membership influence Malaysia's economic development during the study period? To answer this question, this study uses the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL). The industrial sector contributes significantly to both local and foreign value added in exports, and participation in GVCs has a positive impact on Malaysia's economic growth during the study period. The impact of GVC participation on the industrial sector is reciprocal. Furthermore, linking local markets with foreign markets helps provide advanced intermediate raw materials and introduces modern production methods and technologies that enhance the competitiveness and productivity of local firms. GVCs also involve more firms through upstream and downstream linkages because they allow industries to specialize in certain parts of the production process rather than completing the entire process. This makes it easier for new firms to enter the market and be more competitive

This study was conducted to design a green industry-based business model for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) using the Business Model Canvas approach for Naura Kitchen. Waste is a significant issue in Bali Province. One of the waste-producing sectors is the home industry. Therefore, it is necessary to implement green practices in the MSME sector to reduce waste. The research method in this study uses a qualitative approach, grounded in the Business Model Canvas. Nine elements map the Naura Kitchen business model based on the green industry. The results of this study yield the concept of nine Business Model Canvas elements: main activities, primary resources, principal partners, distribution channels, customer relationships, customer segments, revenue streams, cost structures, and value propositions. This concept produces an overview of the implementation of the green industry in the Naura Kitchen business. The main activity in this business is the production of ecoprint colors from recycled materials

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the transformation of the chemical industry sector in Indonesia in increasing company value. The independent variables include the Debt-to-Equity Ratio (DER) and stock price, with company size as a moderating variable. The study focused on 60 chemical industry companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2019–2023. The analytical method used was panel data regression. The results of the Chow and Hausman tests indicate that the Random Effect model is more appropriate, whereas the Lagrange Multiplier test supports the Fixed Effect model. The test results show that DER has no significant effect on company value, as measured by Price-to-Book Value (PBV). Meanwhile, stock price and company size have a negative and significant effect on PBV. In addition, company size cannot moderate the effect of DER on PBV, whereas it has been shown to moderate the effect of stock price on PBV. This study provides practical implications for chemical industry companies in increasing company value through effective management of capital structure, stock price movements, and company scale
