International Journal of Business, Economics and Social Development (IJBESD) is published 4 (four) times a year and is the flagship journal of the Research Collaboration Community (RCC). It is the aim of IJBESD to present papers which cover the theory, practice, history or methodology of Business, Economics and Social Development. However, since Business, Economics and Social Development are primarily an applied science, it is a major objective of the journal to attract and publish accounts of good, practical case studies. Consequently, papers illustrating applications of Business, Economics and Social Development to real problems are especially welcome.

Abstract

This study discusses the production process carried out in collaboration with the community (especially women's knitting groups) in the field of visual arts, seen through the lens of participatory culture. Using a case study approach, this study re-examines how artists engage with communities to create spaces for communication, build relationships, explore creative processes, exchange ideas, and collectively shape identities. This study examines the collaborative methods applied in Mulyana's artwork 'Sea Remembers', focusing on two main aspects: the collaborative work process and the community empowerment process. The method used is qualitative with a case study approach to a collaborative process. The findings reveal that during its production, 'Sea Remembers' illustrates that the artistic process carried out with many people can be a medium for empowering communities, can positively foster innovation in art making, and increase appreciation for those involved. This study emphasizes the potential of collaboration with a participatory approach in redefining the artistic production process in building social relationships.

Abstract

In this research, we look at how using Online Food Delivery Service (OFDS), social media, and digital wallets on progress of culinary Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Cirebon City. As digital technology develops, MSMEs are required to adapt to improve competitiveness and business sustainability. Using methods from multiple linear regression analysis, this study took a quantitative approach, involving 369 respondents from a total of 4,830 culinary MSMEs in Cirebon. According to the findings, all three factors significantly and favorably affect the development of MSMEs. Social media acts as an effective marketing tool to increase visibility and interaction with customers. OFDS facilitates consumer access to MSME products without the need for physical stores, thus expanding the market and improving distribution efficiency. Meanwhile, digital wallets simplify transactions, increase payment security, and help with financial record-keeping. With these findings, the study suggests that MSMEs should increasingly actively utilize digital technology to expand markets and improve operational efficiency. The implications of this research can serve as a reference for businesses, government, and digital service providers in support of MSME growth in the digital era.

Abstract

PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk (UNVR) is one of the leading business entities in the Indonesian FMCG sector that has been operating since 1933. Although the FMCG sector is growing, UNVR is facing a decline in financial performance in 2019–2023, marked by a net profit that fell from IDR 5.36 trillion (2022) to IDR 4.8 trillion (2023) and stock price fluctuations between IDR 3,530 –IDR 8,400. The main factors affecting the company's performance include the instability of raw material prices, the level of competition in a tight market, and the transformation of consumer behavior. This study aims to analyze the effect of Net Profit Margin (NPM), Current Ratio (CR), and Total Asset Turnover (TATO) on UNVR's stock price, with Return on Assets (ROA) as an intervening variable. The method applied is quantitative through an associative approach, using secondary data from the company's financial statements for the period 2019–2023. The results of the analysis show that the average of NPM reached 0.1478, CR 0.6176, TATO 2.1625, and ROA decreased from 35.80% (2019) to 29.23% (2022). Normality and multicollinearity tests indicate that the regression model meets statistical assumptions. Path analysis with two models (Model 1 without intervening variables and Model 2 with ROA as an intervening variable) proves that Model 2 provides a more comprehensive understanding of the relationship between variables. Although Model 1 has high predictive power, Model 2 explains in more detail the mechanism of the influence of independent variables on stock prices with the mediating role of ROA. This finding indicates that investors are more interested in investing in entities with good profitability, stable liquidity, high asset utilization efficiency, and solid profitability performance, all of which are reflected in ROA. The decline in profit and ROA contributed to stock price fluctuations, influenced by inflation of 5.51% (2022) and e-commerce growth of 2.75% (2023). Based on these results, UNVR needs to improve operational efficiency and digital strategy to improve profitability and market valuation.

Abstract

The development of lifestyle trends and increasingly strong brand images in Indonesia have a major influence on consumer purchasing decisions, especially in the technology product category such as the iPhone. This creates very tight competition in the gadget market. This study aims to analyze the influence of lifestyle and brand image on purchasing decisions for iPhone products, especially for consumers in Indonesia. Product purchasing decisions will be influenced by lifestyle factors and brand image owned by consumers. In this study, primary data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire. The questionnaire was systematically designed to collect responses relevant to the research topic and consisted of a series of questions distributed to respondents aged 18 to 35 years, with a calculation of the coachran formula for 380 respondents. The data analysis method was carried out using Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). The results of the study showed that lifestyle and brand image had a significant influence on purchasing decisions for iPhone products. This means that these two independent variables together drive iPhone purchasing decisions, with lifestyle and brand image playing an important role in shaping consumers' desire to buy the product. A modern lifestyle and a positive brand image are the main factors driving iPhone purchasing decisions. This shows that consumers choose products based on social identity and brand quality that can meet their lifestyle needs.

Abstract

Green innovation has emerged as a strategic imperative for balancing economic growth with environmental sustainability, especially within BRICS+ nations such as Brazil, Russia, and India. These rapidly industrializing economies face escalating ecological pressures while navigating distinct structural, institutional, and policy landscapes that influence their capacity for eco-innovation. This study adopts a qualitative integrative literature review to examine the barriers and facilitators shaping green innovation across these countries. Drawing on 35 peer-reviewed articles and empirical studies published between 2007 and 2024, the research synthesizes interdisciplinary insights into the socio-economic and regulatory dynamics that drive or hinder sustainable technological progress. Findings reveal that Brazil’s green innovation is constrained by underfunded institutions and limited academia-industry collaboration, yet bolstered by market incentives and sectoral initiatives. Russia contends with bureaucratic inefficiencies and weak regulatory enforcement but benefits from university partnerships and targeted state programs. In India, systemic issues like inadequate institutional support and lax enforcement impede progress, though recent policy reforms and growing corporate responsibility offer momentum. The study also found that green innovation is essential for sustainable growth in BRICS+ countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and Indonesia where recent research highlights distinct structural barriers and facilitators influencing its adoption and impact on environmental and economic outcomes. Thematic content analysis categorizes these influences and highlights recurring patterns and country-specific distinctions. Triangulation across sources enhances validity and ensures a comprehensive perspective.

Abstract

This research is conducted with the objective of empirically analyzing how sustainability elements and core corporate characteristics influence the financial performance of issuers listed on the LQ45 index at the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2019 and 2023. The focus of the investigation lies in exploring the impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) scores, capital structure metrics, Earnings per Share (EPS), firm scale, and market-based valuation indicators on profitability, measured through Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE). Adopting a quantitative research approach, this study applies panel data regression techniques. The sample selection process utilizes purposive sampling, emphasizing the availability of complete annual reports, sustainability disclosures, and ESG ratings obtained from Sustainalytics. From a total of 225 observations, 169 datasets met the stringent criteria for thorough examination. The results highlight that prudent management of capital structure combined with strong market valuation significantly boosts corporate profitability. Conversely, the incorporation of ESG practices does not uniformly translate into immediate financial gains and, in certain cases, may even detract from profitability levels. Additionally, the analysis indicates that firms with larger asset bases may experience a decline in operational efficiency, suggesting that mere expansion in size does not inherently enhance financial outcomes. These findings provide valuable insights into the expanding body of literature addressing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) and corporate financial performance within emerging market environments. Furthermore, they offer practical recommendations for regulators, corporate leaders, and investors aiming to design more integrated, sustainability-oriented financial strategies.

Abstract

This analysis is carried out with the intention of examining economic factors that have an influence on tax revenue in Indonesia in the 2019-2023 timeframe. The variables analyzed include taxpayer compliance, unemployment rate, and Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The approach applied is quantitative through multiple regression analysis to analyze the relationship of all these variables. The results of the analysis prove that taxpayer compliance, unemployment rate and gross domestic product have a positive impact. Simultaneously, these three variables significantly affect tax revenue. The findings indicate that increasing tax compliance, reducing unemployment, and sustained economic growth can be effective strategies in increasing tax revenue in Indonesia. Therefore, a more inclusive tax policy and support for economic stability are crucial steps in optimizing tax revenue.
