Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the influence of exchange rate, leverage, and liquidity on the financial performance of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2014 to 2023, with firm age as a control variable. Methodology: Using a quantitative approach, the sample was selected through purposive sampling, resulting in 113 manufacturing firms. The variables observed include return on assets (ROA), debt ratio (DR), current ratio (CR), exchange rate, and firm age. Data were analyzed using panel regression with a fixed effect model based on the Hausman test. Results: The results indicate that leverage has a significant negative effect on financial performance, while liquidity and exchange rate have no significant effect. Firm age as a control variable does not significantly affect ROA. Findings: The study highlights the importance of managing debt levels to maintain profitability and supports previous literature on capital structure theory. Novelty: This research incorporates firm age as a control variable and uses a decade-long data panel from Indonesian manufacturing companies. Originality: This study contributes a comprehensive view of macro and micro financial determinants of firm performance in a developing economy context. Conclusion: Companies must manage leverage carefully to avoid profitability decline. High liquidity or long firm age does not guarantee better performance. Type of Paper: Research article

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the influence of apparatus competence, organizational commitment, and the utilization of information technology on the accountability of village fund management in Belopa District, Luwu Regency. Methodology: The study employs a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis. Data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to village officials from five villages in Belopa District. Results: The results indicate that organizational commitment and the utilization of information technology have a positive and significant effect on village fund management accountability. In contrast, apparatus competence shows a negative effect on accountability. Novelty: This study introduces an empirical perspective by revealing a counterintuitive relationship between apparatus competence and accountability in village fund management. Findings: Organizational commitment and effective use of information technology emerge as key drivers in enhancing accountability at the village level, while competence alone does not necessarily guarantee better governance outcomes. Originality: The originality of this research lies in its focus on village-level public finance management and its empirical evidence from a rural Indonesian context. Conclusions: Strengthening organizational commitment and optimizing information technology utilization are crucial strategies to improve village fund accountability, alongside the need to reassess competency development programs. Type of Paper: Empirical Research Paper.

Abstract

Purpose: This research aims to determine the partial influence of basic accounting knowledge, learning motivation, and computer knowledge on student learning outcomes in the MYOB Accounting Computer course. The study is important to identify key factors that support practical accounting skills and student readiness for the workforce. Methodology: A quantitative approach was applied using multiple linear regression analysis. The study employed a total sampling technique involving 133 Grade XI accounting students at a private vocational high school in Surabaya during the 2023/2024 academic year. Data were collected through documentation of MYOB course grades and questionnaires measuring the independent variables. Results: The analysis showed that basic accounting knowledge and learning motivation significantly influenced learning outcomes, while computer knowledge did not have a significant effect. Findings: The research highlights that foundational knowledge and intrinsic motivation are critical for students to succeed in applied accounting software learning. Novelty: This study offers a novel contribution by empirically examining the influence of cognitive factors such as basic accounting understanding, affective factors such as learning motivation, and technical factors such as computer knowledge on MYOB learning outcomes in a vocational school context. Unlike most previous studies that focus on higher education or isolate variables, this research provides a more integrated analysis relevant to the practical needs of vocational accounting education. Originality: The study reveals that computer knowledge alone does not ensure successful learning outcomes without the support of conceptual understanding and motivation, underlining the importance of integrated learning strategies. Conclusion: Enhancing basic accounting understanding and motivation is essential to improving MYOB learning outcomes. Type of Paper: Quantitative research paper.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the influence of financial literacy and financial inclusion on millennials’ investment decisions in the North Luwu capital market. Methodology: A quantitative approach was applied using a structured questionnaire distributed to 83 respondents selected through Slovin’s formula. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression via SPSS software. Results: Both financial literacy (β = 0.471, p < .001) and financial inclusion (β = 0.256, p < .001) significantly and positively influence millennials’ investment decisions. The adjusted R² value of 0.646 indicates that 64.6% of the variance in investment decisions is explained by the two predictors. Findings: Financial literacy has a more dominant effect than financial inclusion, emphasizing the importance of financial understanding in making rational investment decisions. Novelty: This study addresses a geographic gap by focusing on millennials in a semi-peripheral region (North Luwu), where empirical data on investment behavior are still scarce. Originality: The study offers an integrative framework by employing the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to connect financial literacy and inclusion with investment decision-making, a combination rarely explored in previous literature. Conclusion: Improving both financial literacy and financial inclusion concurrently is essential to fostering smarter, more inclusive investment behaviors among millennials, particularly in underrepresented regions.
