Abstract

This study aims to analyze the partial and simultaneous effects of BI Rate, Purchasing Power Index (IDB), Domestic Investment (PMDN), and Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) on Per Capita Expenditure in East Java Province. This study uses annual time series data for the period 2009–2013 sourced from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) and Bank Indonesia (BI). The analytical method used is multiple linear regression with EViews 13 software. The results of the classical assumption test show that the model meets the requirements of normality, and there is no multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and autocorrelation. The results reveal that partially, BI Rate and the Purchasing Power Index have a positive and significant effect on per capita expenditure. Meanwhile, Domestic Investment (PMDN) and Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) did not show a significant effect. However, simultaneously, the four independent variables proved to have a significant effect on per capita expenditure. These findings provide policy implications that efforts to improve the welfare of the people of East Java must consider a combination of prudent monetary policy, programs to increase purchasing power, as well as more targeted and inclusive investment and employment strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the direct and indirect relationship between the variables of the number of foreign tourist visits and the average length of stay on Regional Original Income through foreign tourist expenditure as an intervening variable through a path analysis approach. This study uses secondary data from the Central Statistics Agency and the Bali Provincial Tourism Office for the period 2000-2024. The results show that the number of foreign tourist visits and foreign tourist expenditure have a significant positive relationship to Regional Original Income in Bali Province, while the average length of stay has a significant negative relationship to Regional Original Income. In addition, foreign tourist expenditure acts as an intervening variable that positively mediates the relationship between the number of foreign tourist visits and Regional Original Income, and negatively mediates the relationship between the average length of stay and Regional Original Income.

Abstract

The development of ports in underdeveloped regions plays a strategic role in enhancing connectivity, accelerating economic distribution, and reducing interregional disparities. This study analyzes the development of Tapaleo Port in Central Halmahera, North Maluku, through the lens of public economics and equity-oriented policy. The research adopts a case study approach with an analytical framework based on market failure theory, positive externalities, the Lindahl financing model, and the Kaldor–Hicks welfare criterion. The findings indicate that the port’s development has generated positive impacts on the regional economy, including a 22% reduction in logistics costs, an 18% increase in fisheries exports, and contributions to local job creation. However, its implementation still faces several challenges, such as delays in budget absorption, limited readiness of supporting infrastructure, and inadequate community involvement. This study recommends improving governance transparency, strengthening cross-sectoral coordination, and adopting an inclusive development model that   actively engages local communities to achieve long-term and sustainable economic equity.

Abstract

This study examines spillover and reciprocal relationships of industrial sector growth among Sidoarjo, Gresik, Pasuruan, and Mojokerto. The Two-Stage Least Squares (TSLS) method was applied using industrial GRDP data from 2000–2024. The results show that: (1) Sidoarjo and Gresik have a positive and mutually reinforcing relationship; (2) Sidoarjo and Pasuruan exhibit a reciprocal but weak relationship; and (3) Sidoarjo and Mojokerto show a reciprocal but negative relationship, indicating spatial competition. These findings highlight that interregional industrial interactions vary and are shaped by agglomeration forces and regional industrial structures.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of several factors on the purchasing power of communities in each province on the island of Java. The type of data used in this research is secondary data, specifically panel data from 2017 to 2023. The research method is descriptive with a quantitative approach, and the estimation model employed is panel data regression. The results of the study indicate that the independent variables, namely the provincial minimum wage and consumer credit, have a significant effect on the purchasing power of communities in Java. Meanwhile, other independent variables such as inflation, per capita income, investment, and government expenditure do not have a significant effect on purchasing power in Java.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of Average School Age, Open Unemployment Rate, and Economic Growth on Income Inequality in the Special Region of Yogyakarta Province. Income inequality is an important issue in regional development because it reflects the uneven results of development at various levels of society. This study uses a quantitative approach with secondary data sourced from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) D.I. Yogyakarta during the period 2014–2023. The analysis method used was multiple linear regression with the help of the SPSS version 25 tool. The results showed that the average variable length of school had a positive and significant effect on income inequality, while the open unemployment rate and economic growth had no effect on income inequality in D.I. Yogyakarta. These findings suggest that improvements in educational attainment, labor conditions, and economic growth have not been accompanied by equitable access or a balanced distribution of development benefits, causing the gains to be concentrated among high-income groups in urban areas.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of the Human Development Index (HDI), Economic Growth, and Labor on the Poverty Level in Sumenep Regency. The data used is secondary data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Sumenep Regency and East Java Province for the 2012–2023 period. The analysis was carried out using the Multiple Linear Regression method with the help of the SPSS version 24 program. The results of the classical assumption test showed that the regression model met the criteria of normality, was free from multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and autocorrelation, so the model was declared feasible to use. The results of the study show that HDI has a negative and significant effect on the poverty rate, Economic Growth does not have a significant effect, and the Labor Force has a positive and significant effect on the poverty rate. The determination coefficient value (R²) of 95.1% shows that the model has a very high explanatory power, so that the results of this study can be trusted and accurately describe the empirical conditions in Sumenep Regency, while the remaining 4.9% is influenced by other factors outside the research model. These results confirm that improving human quality has the most dominant role in reducing poverty compared to other economic variables.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of Revenue Sharing Funds, General Allocation Funds, and Special Allocation Funds on economic growth in Java Island in the period 2015–2024. The independent variables in this study include Revenue Sharing Funds (DBH), General Allocation Funds (DAU), and Special Allocation Funds (DAK), while the dependent variable is regional economic growth. This study uses a quantitative descriptive method and data analysis is carried out using panel data regression. The results of the study indicate that Revenue Sharing Funds (DBH) and General Allocation Funds (DAU) have a positive and significant effect on economic growth in Java Island, which means that increasing DBH and DAU revenues can encourage economic activities to increase regional development capacity. Conversely, the Special Allocation Fund (DAK) has a negative but significant effect on economic growth, which indicates inefficiency in the allocation and use of these funds. Overall, the results of this study confirm that the management of balancing funds is highly dependent on the ability of local governments to manage financial resources efficiently, transparently, and accountably in order to encourage sustainable economic growth at the regional level.
