Purchasing power refers to an individual's ability to consume goods or services. There is a considerable amount of evidence indicating a weakening of the purchasing power of the Indonesian people in 2024. This research aims to analyse the factors that influence the purchasing power of the Indonesian population from 2013 to 2023. This study focuses on five variables: inflation, interest rate, value-added tax (VAT), consumer credit, and the open unemployment rate. The analytical method used in this research is multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this research are that inflation and credit consumption have a significant and positive effect. Open unemployment rate has a significant negative effect on purchasing power. Interest rates and VAT do not significantly affect purchasing power.

This study examines the effects of per capita GRDP and infrastructure on hotel and restaurant tax revenue in East Java Province during the 2015–2023 period, as well as the role of interactions with the number of tourists. Using secondary data and a quantitative approach, this study employs Fixed-Effects Panel Regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The results indicate that per capita GRDP has a positive and significant effect on hotel and restaurant tax revenue, while road length only significantly affects restaurant tax revenue. Transportation hubs do not show a significant effect, and the number of tourists only interacts significantly with road length. These findings suggest that strengthening road infrastructure and enhancing local economic capacity are more effective in optimizing tax revenue than simply increasing the number of tourists, thereby providing insights for policy planning and the development of sustainable regional tourism.

This study analyzes the occurrence of the Flypaper Effect within regional financial management by utilizing variables such as Economic Growth, Local Revenue, Government Grant, and Budget Surplus in the Gerbangkertosusila Region over the period of 2010 to 2023. The findings derived from the Robust Common Effect model regression indicate that the variables PAD, DAU, DAK, DBH, and SiLPA exhibit a positive and statistically significant impact on Regional Expenditure, whereas Economic Growth demonstrates a negative influence that lacks statistical significance. It was observed that the coefficient values for all categories of Balance Funds exceeded those of PAD, thereby corroborating the hypothesis regarding the presence of the Flypaper Effect in the Gerbangkertosusila region throughout the research timeframe. Consequently, there is a necessity for strategies aimed at enhancing regional fiscal autonomy through the optimization of PAD and the fortification of local taxation authority.

Housing assistance programs play an important role for Low Income Communities (LICs) in gaining access to decent housing. Based on the literature, research has generally been limited to static analysis and descriptive evaluation of programs, so that the results obtained do not fully describe the dynamics over time and differences in regional characteristics comprehensively. This study aims to analyze the role of BSPS for LICs and the factors that influence access to decent housing. The data used from 34 provinces in Indonesia in 2015 to 2023. The data was analyzed using two way fixed effects estimation, and System GMM as robustness checks. The analysis shows that the distribution of BSPS units cannot improve access to decent housing. The main objective of the BSPS program in reaching LICs has not fully achieved. But the non food poverty line, provincial minimum wage, human development index, and realization of government subsidies funds are factors that correlate with access to decent housing.

Java Island contributes the largest share to Indonesia’s Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP); however, it continues to experience relatively high income inequality. This study aims to examine the socio-economic determinants of income inequality across regencies and cities on Java Island over the period 2017–2024. The analysis employs panel data regression using the Fixed Effects Model, covering 113 regencies and cities. Income inequality is measured using the Gini ratio, while the explanatory variables include sectoral GRDP (primary, secondary, and tertiary sectors), minimum wage, population size, and the Human Development Index (HDI). The empirical results indicate that GRDP in the primary sector and the minimum wage have a positive and statistically significant effect on income inequality. In contrast, GRDP in the secondary sector significantly reduces income inequality. Meanwhile, GRDP in the tertiary sector, population size, and HDI do not exhibit statistically significant effects on income inequality. These findings suggest that income inequality on Java Island is largely influenced by structural economic transformation. Therefore, policy efforts should focus on strengthening labor-intensive industries, modernizing the primary sector, and designing more inclusive minimum wage policies to mitigate income disparities.

Despite receiving the largest Special Autonomy Fund (SAF), Aceh maintains the region’s highest poverty rate in Sumatra. Furthermore, the decline in Social Assistance Spending (SAS) is in line with the decline in poverty. On the other hand, high GRDP per capita, education, and health, coupled with low poverty, are not uniform across districts/cities. Therefore, this study analyses the impact of government interventions and socio-economic factors on poverty across 23 Aceh districts/cities from 2017 to 2024 using panel data multiple linear regression. Results indicate that the SAF and GRDP per capita have no significant effect due to infrastructure-heavy allocations and regionally concentrated growth. Meanwhile, SAS shows a positive effect, indicating recipient dependency and non-pro-poor allocations. Conversely, Education and Health have a negative effect, confirming the role of human capital. It is concluded that fiscal intervention does not guarantee poverty reduction if the allocation is inefficient. Furthermore, high GRDP per capita will not reduce poverty if it remains concentrated in only a few regions. Policymakers must restructure the use of SAF before 2027 while improving SAS targeting and agricultural downstreaming.

Purchasing power reflects economic welfare because it indicates households' ability to meet their needs. In East Java Province, GRDP, inflation, and regional spending fluctuated during the 2019–2024 period, creating disparities in purchasing power between districts/cities that need to be analyzed further. This study aims to analyze the effect of GRDP, regional spending, and inflation on purchasing power in East Java using district/city-level panel data through a quantitative approach, and includes a Covid-19 dummy control variable to capture the impact of the pandemic on regional economic conditions. The results show that GRDP has a positive and significant effect on people's purchasing power. Regional spending also has a positive and significant effect on people's purchasing power. Conversely, inflation does not have a significant effect on people's purchasing power, indicating that during the study period, the inflation rate was relatively stable and did not significantly affect household consumption. These findings confirm that people's purchasing power in East Java is more sensitive to changes in income and fiscal policy than to price pressures.

This study examines the factors influencing the intention of Muslim Generation Z in Banyuwangi Regency to participate in the gig economy, utilizing the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework integrated with the Maqashid Shariah perspective. The variables analyzed include attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and religiosity. Data were collected through an online survey of 150 respondents who met the research criteria and were analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS SEM). The results indicate that perceived behavioral control has a positive and significant effect, reinforcing the importance of individual capability and self-confidence in executing gig work. Attitude toward work flexibility also significantly influences participation interest. Conversely, subjective norms and religiosity show no significant effect, suggesting that participation decisions are driven more by personal factors rather than social pressure or religious values. From a Maqashid Shariah perspective, these findings reflect efforts toward the protection of intellect (hifz al-’aql), life (hifz an-nafs), and wealth (hifz al-mal) within the digital economy context.
