Abstract

This study analyzes the valuation of premium reserves for term life insurance using the Zillmer method under a stochastic interest rate framework. In conventional actuarial practice, premium reserves are commonly calculated using deterministic interest rate assumptions, which may inadequately reflect the dynamic nature of interest rate movements over long-term policy horizons. To address this limitation, this study applies the one-factor Hull–White interest rate model to incorporate stochastic interest rate dynamics into the reserve calculation process. The Hull–White model parameters are estimated using historical interest rate data, and interest rate paths are generated through numerical simulation. These simulated interest rates are then employed to compute discount factors in the calculation of Zillmer premium reserves. The analysis focuses on illustrating how stochastic interest rate movements influence the development of premium reserves over the policy duration, rather than on probabilistic risk measurement or capital adequacy assessment. The results show that premium reserves calculated under the stochastic interest rate framework exhibit dynamic patterns over time, particularly during the early and middle policy periods. Compared to deterministic interest rate assumptions, the stochastic approach captures variations in reserve values arising from interest rate fluctuations. This finding highlights the sensitivity of Zillmer premium reserves to interest rate dynamics. Overall, this study demonstrates that integrating the Hull–White stochastic interest rate model with the Zillmer method provides a descriptive and flexible framework for analyzing premium reserves in term life insurance. The proposed approach may serve as a basis for further research on stochastic valuation methods in actuarial applications.

Abstract

This inquiry explores the pivotal determinants of performance among university students in Cirebon City who simultaneously navigate the demands of part-time employment. Anchored in a quantitative paradigm, the study deployed a survey mechanism to a cohort of 131 individuals managing these dual responsibilities. The gathered empirical data were subjected to rigorous analysis via Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Statistical evidence confirms that achieving a harmonious work-life balance significantly bolsters student performance. However, the analysis further illuminates that work engagement plays a substantially more commanding role, emerging as the primary predictor of performance outcomes. Consequently, these findings suggest that while equilibrium between roles is beneficial, the intensity of a student’s psychological immersion in their work is the critical driver for sustaining high academic and occupational standards.

Abstract

The primary objective of this quantitative inquiry is to empirically examine the impact of store ambience and pricing strategies on consumer purchase intention within the specific context of Rabbani Shop Cipto, Cirebon City. Adopting a survey-based methodological design, the study targeted a cohort of 133 distinct patrons who had previously transacted at the location.  Data processing was executed via multiple linear regression algorithms facilitated by SPSS software, revealing that both store atmosphere and price exert a statistically significant and positive influence on purchase intention, manifesting both independently and synergistically. In terms of individual magnitude, store atmosphere accounts for a substantial 36.5% of the variance, whereas price contributes 28.8%. Collectively, these predictors explain 42.6% of the fluctuation in purchase intention, with the remaining variance attributable to unobserved exogenous factors. Consequently, these insights underscore the critical necessity of curating an immersive retail environment alongside a perception aligned pricing strategy to effectively catalyze consumer purchasing behavior.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of financial planning and e-wallet usage on personal financial management, with lifestyle serving as a mediating variable. The research was conducted using a quantitative approach among 150 active e-wallet users in Cirebon, selected through purposive sampling, and the data were collected via questionnaires and analyzed using the SEM-PLS method. The study's results indicate that financial planning and the use of e-wallets have a positive, significant effect on personal financial management. Lifestyle has a significant effect on personal financial management but does not mediate the relationship between financial planning or e-wallet usage and personal financial management. These results indicate that personal financial management is more directly shaped by financial planning, while lifestyle changes resulting from e-wallet usage have not contributed to improving financial management quality. Therefore, the study highlights the importance of increasing awareness of sound financial planning and the responsible use of e-wallets, particularly among young people, to prevent excessive consumerist behavior that may negatively affect personal financial management.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of liquidity and leverage on firm profitability in property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2024 period. The property sector represents a capital-intensive industry characterized by long project cycles, high financing requirements, and sensitivity to macroeconomic fluctuations. These characteristics make financial structure and working capital management critical determinants of corporate performance. Profitability is measured using Return on Assets (ROA), while liquidity and leverage are proxied by the Current Ratio (CR) and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), respectively. A quantitative research design was employed using secondary data derived from audited annual financial reports. The sample consisted of 18 companies selected through purposive sampling, resulting in 72 firm-year observations. Following classical assumption testing and outlier adjustment, 62 observations were deemed suitable for regression analysis. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS version 27. The empirical findings reveal that liquidity exerts a significant negative effect on profitability, indicating that excessive current assets may reduce asset utilization efficiency. Similarly, leverage demonstrates a significant negative relationship with profitability, suggesting that higher debt levels increase financial burdens that suppress net income. Simultaneously, liquidity and leverage jointly influence profitability, highlighting the importance of balanced financial management strategies. These results emphasize that both overinvestment in liquid assets and excessive reliance on debt financing may weaken firm performance. Overall, the study underscores the necessity for property companies to optimize working capital allocation and maintain a sustainable capital structure to enhance profitability and asset efficiency.

Abstract

Public services at the village level require professional, communicative, and highly motivated civil servants who directly interact with the community. Residents’ perceptions of the quality of civil servants play a crucial role in reflecting and influencing employee performance. This study analyzes the impact of residents' perceptions of professionalism, work environment communication, and work motivation on the performance of employees in Citangtu Village, Kuningan District. A quantitative approach with an explanatory method was employed. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire from 100 residents of Citangtu Village who had received public services. Data analysis was performed using SPSS, involving validity testing, reliability testing, classical assumption testing, and multiple linear regression analysis. Hypothesis testing was conducted using t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²). Results showed that professionalism, communication in the work environment, and work motivation had a significant impact on employee performance. However, professionalism alone did not significantly affect performance, while communication and work motivation showed a positive and significant effect. Communication emerged as the most dominant factor influencing employee performance. The high coefficient of determination suggests that most of the variation in employee performance can be explained by these three independent variables. These findings indicate that improving employee performance requires more than professionalism; strengthening communication and enhancing motivation are equally essential.

Abstract

Tax effectiveness represents an important aspect of corporate financial management and fiscal compliance. Variations in effective tax payments are often associated with differences in company asset structures and financing policies. This study aims to examine the influence of capital intensity, inventory intensity, and leverage on tax effectiveness, with firm size acting as a moderating variable. The research focuses on manufacturing companies in the raw materials subsector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2024 period. The study employs a quantitative approach using panel data regression analysis. Tax effectiveness is proxied by the Cash Effective Tax Rate (Cash ETR), which reflects actual cash-based tax payments. Capital intensity, inventory intensity, and leverage are utilized as explanatory variables, while firm size is incorporated as a moderating variable. The estimation model is conducted using Panel EGLS (Cross-section Weights) to address heteroskedasticity across firms. The empirical findings indicate that capital intensity, inventory intensity, and leverage have negative and statistically significant effects on Cash ETR. These results suggest that higher proportions of fixed assets, inventory, and debt usage are associated with lower cash-based tax payments. Furthermore, firm size is found to moderate the relationships between inventory intensity and leverage on tax effectiveness, while no significant moderating effect is observed in the relationship between capital intensity and tax effectiveness. Overall, this study highlights the importance of corporate financial characteristics in shaping tax effectiveness. The findings contribute to the understanding of tax management behavior, particularly within asset-intensive manufacturing sectors in emerging markets.
