Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the effect og public accounting firm (PAF) size, profitability, and solvency on audit delay in infrastructure companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during teh 2021-2024 period. Methodology/approach: The research uses quantitative methods with secondary data derived from audited annual reports of 20 infrastructure companies listed on the IDX. The samplewas selected using purposive sampling technique. Audit delay is measured as the number of days between the fiscal year-end and the date of the independent auditor’s report. The independent variabels are PAF size (dummy variable), profitability (ROA), and solvency (DAR). Data analysis was conducted using multiple liniear resression with SPSS. Results/findings: The results indicate that PAF size has no significant effect on audit delay, profitability has a positive effect on audit delay, and solvency significantly affect audit delay. Conclusions: The findings highlight that audit delay in infrastructure companies is influenced more by profitability and solvency rather than PAF size. Higher profitability tends to increase audit delay due to the complexity of financial transactions, while higher solvency reduces audit delay since companies with better financial structure are easier to audit Limitations: This study only focuses on infrastructure companies for the 2021-2024 period and uses limited financial ratios as proxies. Contribution: This study adds evidence on audit delay in the infrastructure sector and provides insights for investors, regulators, and management to assess the timeliness of financial reporting.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the influence of financial literacy, overconfidence, and herding behavior on investment decisions made through digital-based applications. It aims to determine which cognitive and behavioral factors most significantly shape investors’ decision-making in the digital era. Methodology: The research applies a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 400 individual investors in Sumatra, Indonesia, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via an online questionnaire and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4.0. The analysis covered the outer model (validity and reliability) and the inner model (path coefficients and significance testing). Results/findings: The results indicate that financial literacy, overconfidence, and herding behavior each have a positive and significant effect on application-based investment decisions. These findings show that knowledge, self-confidence, and social influence play vital roles in shaping investors’ behavior in digital investment platforms. Conclusions: Investors’ decisions in digital applications are influenced by both cognitive and social psychological factors, supporting behavioral finance theory, which asserts that investment behavior is not entirely rational. Limitations: This study is limited to individual investors in Sumatra and uses self-reported data, which may cause response bias. It also excludes external factors such as market volatility, emotional regulation, and platform usability that could affect investment behavior. Contribution: This research enriches behavioral finance literature by examining financial literacy, overconfidence, and herding behavior together in the context of digital investment platforms in Indonesia, offering new empirical evidence on their combined influence on investment decisions.

Abstract

Purpose: The objective of this research is to determine the impact of financial literacy, fiscal intensification, financial capital, and digital adoption on MSME business performance in Karawang Regency. Methodology/approach: A quantitative method was applied in this study using a survey of 60 respondents. The collected data were processed with IBM SPSS Statistics 25 software, employing multiple linear regression along with validity, reliability, and classical assumption testing. Results/findings: Based on the analysis, all research instruments were proven valid and reliable, and the data were normally distributed, heteroscedastic, and free from multicollinearity issues. Each of the four independent variables shows a positive and significant effect on MSME business performance, where digital usage has the highest influence, with a regression coefficient of 0.679. Conclusions: The findings indicate that the combined influence of financial literacy, fiscal intensification, financial capital, and digital adoption significantly enhances MSME business performance. Among these, digital adoption plays the most dominant role, indicating that embracing technology is key to improving competitiveness and business growth. Limitations: Despite the fact that numerous other factors also affect MSME performance, only four variables were used. Additionally, the short study duration makes it impossible to record long-term changes in MSME company dynamics, and the use of a closed-ended questionnaire may induce subjective bias. Contribution: It is projected that this research will generate new contributions to the scientific development of financial management and entrepreneurship while offering a clearer understanding of the key factors impacting MSME performance in the digital age.
