Abstract

The importance of entrepreneurial knowledge and social media in increasing the success of women's fashion MSMEs in Central Jakarta, especially amidst increasingly tight business competition. This study aims to analyze the influence of these two factors on business success by considering family support as a moderating factor. Entrepreneurial knowledge helps business actors in recognizing opportunities, managing risks, and adapting in a dynamic and competitive market. Meanwhile, social media acts as an effective marketing tool to reach consumers at a relatively low cost. Family support is believed to provide additional stability and motivation for MSME owners. This study uses a descriptive quantitative method with a Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) approach and involves 106 respondents of women's fashion MSMEs in Central Jakarta. The results of the study indicate that entrepreneurial knowledge has a positive and significant influence on business success. However, the influence of social media on business success is positive but not significant. In addition, family support has a positive and significant influence on business success. As a moderating variable, family support is not significant in moderating the influence of entrepreneurial knowledge and social media on business success. This study suggests that MSMEs should focus more on improving their understanding of entrepreneurship and maximizing the use of social media effectively, while further research can expand the scope of business sectors and variables studied for more comprehensive results.

Abstract

This study was carried out with the objective of determining the effect of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) on Real Earnings Management (REM) practices using board characteristics as a moderating variable that determined by board size, board independence, CEO duality, board expertise, and gender diversity. This research employs a quantitive approach, utilizing purposive sampling technique with a sample of 31 non-cylical consumer sector companies that listed on Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the periods of 2009-2011 and 2019-2023. Data is processed using STATA application with the PCSE Estimator feature in testing the hypothesis. This research results indicate that IFRS, board independence, board expertise, and gender diversity do not exert a substantial on REM. While board size exerts a considerable negative influence on REM and CEO duality exerts a considerable positive influence on REM. In addition, it was found that board size moderates significantly positive for the correlation between IFRS and REM, where CEO duality and board expertise moderate significantly negative. However, there’s no moderating effect of board independence and gender diversity variables were found in this study. So it can be concluded that board characteristics partially moderate the correlaction between IFRS and REM.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of leverage on firm value with profitability and firm size acting as influencing variables in non-cyclical sector companies listed on the Indonesia’s Capital Market between 2020 - 2023. This study uses 188 observation data from 47 companies selected through the purposive sampling. Tobin’s Q is utilized to calculate firm value, while leverage is evaluated using the ratio of debt to total assets. The Return on Assets (ROA) ratio measures profitability, whereas the natural logarithm of total assets is employed to assess firm size. Multivariate linear regression analysis in the first model without moderation shows that leverage and profitability have a considerable favorable impact on firm value. In contrast, firm size has a considerable adverse impact. In the second model, profitability was tested as a influencing variable in the link between leverage and firm value, but no significant moderating effect was found. The same thing is also found in the third model, where firm size as a moderating variable does not have a meaningful impact on the leverage-firm value connection. The study’s result demonstrates that although leverage, profitability, and company size impact firm value directly, profitability and firm size as moderating variables are not strong enough to affect the dynamics between leverage and firm value. Therefore, it is recommended that company management focus more on optimizing financial structure and operational efficiency without relying too much on company size growth to increase firm value.

Abstract

In this study, price, product quality, and corporate image were examined for their influence on customer satisfaction and loyalty. The study focused on customers of Shell gas stations in Jakarta, involving 216 samples. The data collected through a questionnaire instrument (G-form) was analyzed by the researcher using SmartPLS4 software. It was found that all exogenous variables in this study influenced satisfaction and loyalty. Customer satisfaction also proved to be an important mediator in the relationship between all exogenous variables and loyalty in the gas station sector in Jakarta. Additionally, the study results showed that price and product quality had a direct positive impact on loyalty. However, corporate image was found to have a negative but insignificant effect on loyalty, indicating that while a positive image plays an important role, this factor does not directly determine loyalty without the support of competitive and consistent pricing and product quality. Beyond its contribution to academic literature, this study provides practical insights for Shell regarding the importance of fair pricing strategies and the delivery of appropriate product quality to enhance satisfaction and sustain loyalty. On the other hand, corporate image requires a more strategic, integrated, and sustainable approach to strengthen long-term relationships with customers.

In addition to its contribution to academic literature, this study provides practical insights for Happyfresh regarding the importance of proper brand awareness in enhancing perceived value, brand trust, and sustainable purchase intention. On the other hand, brand image requires a more strategic, integrated, and sustainable approach to strengthen long-term relationships with customers.

Abstract

Cash holding is an important aspect in order to ensure the financial stability of a company. An excessive or insufficient amount of cash holding can lead to financial problems and disrupt the stability of a company. Therefore, it is essential for a company to maintain its level of cash holding in an optimal level. This research seeks to explore the influence of profitability, liquidity, net working capital, capital expenditure, also firm size on cash holding considering the moderating role of firm size in consumer non-cyclicals firms registered on Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2021-2023 period. Secondary financial data is employed and chosen through purposive sampling method. Data were processed using Microsoft Excel 2021 and tested using Eviews version 12. The outcomes determined that profitability, liquidity, as well as firm size positively impacts cash holding. Meanwhile, it is discovered that a inverse relationship exists among net working capital and cash holding, and capital expenditure does not impact cash reserves of a company. The moderation test analysis in this study imply that size of a firm is qualified in moderating the impact of profitability and net working capital in determining cash reserves. Conversely, size of a firm does not have the capacity in moderating the influence of liquidity and capital expenditure in determing cash holding.

This study aims to analyze the effect of government support as a moderator of entrepreneurial competence and self-efficacy on business success in women's fashion MSMEs in Central Jakarta. The research employs a purposive sampling technique with 225 respondents, consisting of women’s fashion MSMEs owners in Central Jakarta. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Square – Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4 software. The research instrument consisted of an online questionnaire distributed to respondents meeting the sample criteria. The result show that entrepreneurial competence, self-efficacy, and government support have a positive and significant effect on the business success of women's fashion MSMEs in Central Jakarta. However, government support was not found to strengthen the effect of entrepreneurial competence and self-efficacy on the business success. Thus, entrepreneurial competence, self-efficacy, and government support are vital for success in fashion MSMEs. MSMEs business owners can enhance their success by developing entrepreneurial competence and self-efficacy, focusing on innovation, strategic decision-making, and self-confidence as key drivers of business success in the fashion industry. With government support, including training, and access to capital, fashion MSMEs can grow, compete in broader markets, and contribute to local economic development.
