Abstract

This article aims to analyze the strategic role of zakat and waqf in supporting the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 10, which focuses on reducing social and economic inequality. This research uses a literature study approach to analyze literature and secondary data related to the implementation of zakat and waqf in reducing socio-economic inequality. The results show that Zakat functions as an instrument of wealth redistribution that directly targets underprivileged groups through consumptive assistance and productive zakat programs that empower mustahik to become economically independent so that it has an influence on reducing poverty and improving welfare. Meanwhile, waqf provides long-term contribution through financing the sustainable development of education, health, and social infrastructure facilities. In conclusion, zakat and waqf have great potential to support SDGs 10 by creating a more inclusive, just and prosperous society through sustainable reduction of socio-economic inequality.

Abstract

Small and Medium Enterprises play a strategic role in national economic development through employment generation and income distribution; however, many enterprises still fail to utilize accounting information effectively due to limited accounting records and inadequate managerial awareness. This study examines the influence of owners’ perceptions and accounting knowledge on the use of accounting information among Small and Medium Enterprises in Johan Pahlawan Subdistrict, West Aceh Regency. Employing a quantitative research design, primary data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to 88 Small and Medium Enterprise owners selected using a survey sampling technique. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to assess both partial and simultaneous effects of the independent variables. The findings reveal a statistically significant simultaneous influence of owners’ awareness and accounting knowledge on the use of accounting information, as indicated by a significance value of 0.000. These results demonstrate that limited accounting knowledge and negative perceptions toward accounting practices remain key barriers to effective financial information utilization among Small and Medium Enterprises. The study concludes that improving accounting literacy and reshaping owners’ perceptions are essential to enhancing financial decision-making and business sustainability, thereby supporting broader economic development objectives in the region.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between Gross Domestic Product, exports, imports, and Indonesia’s external debt over the period 2010–2022, against the backdrop of increasing reliance on foreign borrowing to support economic development. The research addresses the question of how key macroeconomic variables influence the dynamics of external debt in Indonesia. Employing a quantitative approach, this study utilizes multiple linear regression analysis based on secondary time-series data to assess both the direction and significance of these relationships. The empirical results reveal that Gross Domestic Product has a positive and statistically significant effect on external debt, indicating that economic growth is accompanied by higher foreign borrowing. Exports are found to have a negative and significant effect, suggesting that stronger export performance contributes to reducing external debt pressures. In contrast, imports do not exhibit a statistically significant relationship with external debt. The study argues that export expansion plays a critical role in strengthening debt sustainability, while economic growth alone does not automatically reduce reliance on external financing. These findings provide important implications for macroeconomic policy, particularly in balancing growth strategies with external debt management.

Abstract

Risk management has become a critical component of banking governance in response to increasing financial complexity and systemic vulnerability. This study examines the influence of credit risk management, liquidity risk management, and operational risk management on the financial performance of banking institutions listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2019–2021.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of public sector accounting reporting implementation and internal control on government performance accountability at the Regional Financial Management Agency of Nagan Raya Regency. The research is motivated by recurring delays in financial report submission, which reflect weaknesses in the application of public sector accounting systems and internal control mechanisms, including ineffective planning processes, non-compliance with revenue management regulations, and policy implementation that contributes to increased public expenditure. Employing a quantitative research design, this study involved 57 employees as respondents selected through a census sampling approach. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, simple linear regression analysis, normality testing, t-tests, and coefficient of determination analysis. The findings reveal that the implementation of public sector accounting reporting and internal control simultaneously exerts a significant effect on government performance accountability, as indicated by a significance value of 0.000. These results demonstrate that stronger accounting reporting practices and more effective internal control systems enhance the accountability of public sector performance. The study concludes that improving institutional compliance with public sector accounting standards and strengthening internal control structures are essential for reinforcing government accountability and ensuring transparent and responsible financial governance.

Abstract

This study examines the effects of financial management comprehension, the regional financial accounting system, and internal supervision effectiveness on the financial performance of the Government of West Aceh Regency. The research is motivated by persistent challenges in improving the quality of regional financial reports, particularly the limited availability of accounting-trained personnel and low technological proficiency among staff, which constrain the optimal use of computerized accounting systems. The study addresses the question of whether and to what extent these factors influence governmental financial performance. A quantitative approach was employed, with the research population comprising all Regional Work Units of the West Aceh Regency Government. Data were collected from 60 respondents serving as financial managers and analyzed using multiple linear regression techniques. The findings indicate that financial management comprehension has a significant effect on financial performance, while the regional financial accounting system and the effectiveness of internal supervision also exert strong and positive influences. Simultaneously, these three variables significantly determine the financial performance of the West Aceh Regency Government. The study argues that strengthening human resource capacity, optimizing accounting systems, and reinforcing internal supervision mechanisms are essential strategies for enhancing the quality and accountability of regional financial performance.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of Management Accounting Information Systems and Environmental Uncertainty on managerial performance at the Regional Drinking Water Company Mon Mata Calang. The research is motivated by increasing managerial demands for timely, relevant, and accurate information amid organizational complexity and environmental volatility in public service institutions. The central problem addressed is whether the effectiveness of management accounting information systems and the ability to respond to environmental uncertainty significantly affect managerial performance. A quantitative approach was employed using a causal research design, with data collected through structured questionnaires administered to managerial staff. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to test the proposed relationships. The findings indicate that Management Accounting Information Systems have a positive and significant effect on managerial performance, demonstrating their role in supporting planning, control, and decision-making processes. Environmental uncertainty also shows a positive and significant influence, suggesting that managers who effectively anticipate and adapt to external changes perform better in achieving organizational objectives. These results confirm that the integration of robust information systems and adaptive managerial capabilities is essential for managerial performance in public sector organizations.
