Abstract

This study aims to determine the behavioral characteristics of private pension fund management institutions in Indonesia in making investment decisions in terms of risk aspects. In addition, this study also wants to test whether the current investment income is optimal and test whether there are differences in income levels from the three types of pension fund programs in Indonesia. The data used in this study are secondary data obtained from the Financial Services Authority (OJK). The data analysis techniques used are using the weighted average of investment risk, the application of Markowitz (Efficient Frontier) theory and SIM, especially the Treynor ratio, and non-parametric difference testing with the Mann-Whitney U Test and the Kruskal Wallis Test. The results of this study indicate that: First, the behavioral characteristics of investment decision-making of pension fund management institutions tend to avoid risk. Second, for the PPMP and PPIP pension fund programs, the optimal portfolio composition is 50% stocks with actual returns and 50% stocks with returns that take into account SIM, while for DPLK the optimal composition is 40% stocks with actual returns and 60% stocks with returns that take into account SIM. Third, in aggregate and individually for each investment instrument there are differences in returns on the three types of pension fund programs in Indonesia

Abstract

This study aims to explore the contribution of management accounting strategies in supporting rational and accountable decision-making in order to realize the principles of good governance. Through the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, this study systematically and comprehensively examines various relevant scientific literature, in order to identify strategies, patterns, and relationships between management accounting and good governance practices. The SLR process was carried out following the PRISMA flow, including formulating research questions, determining inclusion and exclusion criteria, and screening articles from reputable scientific databases such as Scopus, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, and Garuda. The results of the study indicate that management accounting strategies, through tools such as budgeting, variance analysis, and cost-benefit analysis, play an important role in creating an efficient, data-based, and documented decision-making system. In addition, the use of information technology such as ERP, e-budgeting, and e-performance strengthens data integration, accelerates reporting, and increases transparency and accountability. This study also emphasizes the importance of increasing human resource capacity and internal policies that support the optimal use of accounting information. Thus, management accounting strategy is not only a technical tool, but also a strategic foundation in building professional, transparent and sustainable organizational governance

Abstract

This study explores the role of forensic accounting in detecting fraud within the banking sector, with a focus on its practices, challenges, and contributions to internal control systems. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with key informants from major financial institutions, including Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI), Bank Central Asia (BCA), and oversight bodies such as the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK). The findings reveal that forensic accounting plays a significant role in uncovering complex fraud schemes that are often undetected by conventional auditing processes. Techniques such as financial ratio analysis and forensic data analytics prove effective in identifying anomalies, while digital tools enhance the accuracy and efficiency of investigations. However, challenges such as limited data access, lack of organizational support, and weak inter-agency collaboration continue to hinder optimal outcomes. The study concludes that integrating forensic accounting into internal audit mechanisms and enhancing collaboration among stakeholders can significantly strengthen fraud prevention and detection systems in the banking industry.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and analyze the extent to which the implementation of strategic management accounting can optimize corporate financial decision-making. In an increasingly competitive and complex business environment, accurate and data-driven decision-making has become a crucial need for every organization. In this study, strategic management accounting is formulated through three main variables: Strategic Planning, Value Chain Analysis, and the Balanced Scorecard. This research adopts a quantitative approach using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis technique, conducted through the SmartPLS software. The study involved 109 respondents consisting of financial managers and accounting staff from various companies. The results indicate that all three variables have a positive and significant influence on financial decision-making, with the Balanced Scorecard emerging as the most dominant variable. These findings emphasize the importance of applying a strategic framework in management accounting to improve the quality of financial information, operational efficiency, and accuracy in formulating financial policies. This research provides practical contributions for company management in adopting strategic management accounting-based financial decision-making strategies comprehensively and sustainably.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of accounting analysis in improving the quality of business decision-making through the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. This method was chosen to provide a systematic and comprehensive review of previous studies that discuss the relationship between accounting analysis and business decision-making. The literature was collected from various scientific databases such as Google Scholar, Scopus, and ScienceDirect, focusing on publications in the 2020–2025 time frame and using relevant keywords. From the selection results, 15 scientific articles that met the criteria were analyzed thematically. The results of the study show that accounting analysis, through techniques such as financial ratio analysis, cost analysis, and cash flow analysis, makes a significant contribution to the quality of managerial decisions. Decisions based on accounting data have proven to be more rational, measurable, and able to minimize risks, especially in the aspects of financing, investment, and financial planning. In addition, the use of digital technology in the accounting system also strengthens the effectiveness of the analysis by providing information quickly and in real time. However, this study also identifies implementation challenges, especially in the MSME sector, which still faces obstacles such as low accounting literacy and a recording system that has not been digitized. Therefore, improving human resource competency and digitalizing accounting information systems are the main recommendations for optimizing the role of accounting analysis in making quality and sustainable business decisions.

Abstract

Financial statement fraud is a crucial issue that reflects weak internal control and corporate governance. This study aims to analyze the effect of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) on financial statement fraud through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. The search was conducted on articles published in the last five years with a focus on GCG elements such as independent board of commissioners, audit committee, institutional ownership, and managerial ownership. The study results show that most GCG elements negatively affect financial statement fraud, although there are contradictory findings that suggest that GCG effectiveness is contextual. Factors such as firm size, industry sector (Islamic or non-financial), and quality of implementation strongly influence the strength of the relationship between GCG and fraud. The study also identified that the integration of GCG with internal audit function and corporate ethical culture is a more effective combination in preventing fraud. This study makes a theoretical contribution by reinforcing the understanding that the relationship between GCG and financial statement fraud is not linear or uniform, but rather highly dependent on the institutional context and governance practices implemented in the business environment in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the preparation of financial statements and its influence on the quality of financial reporting. The research applies a quantitative descriptive-explanatory method, using a purposive sampling technique involving 60 accounting and finance professionals from organizations that implement AI-based systems in their reporting processes. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression to examine the relationship between AI usage and the quality of financial statements, measured through indicators such as reliability, relevance, and comparability. The findings show that AI has a positive and statistically significant effect on financial reporting quality. This indicates that greater integration of AI tools in accounting processes can enhance the accuracy, consistency, and decision-usefulness of financial information. The results not only confirm the practical benefits of AI in streamlining financial tasks but also contribute to the theoretical understanding of how digital technologies are reshaping the foundations of accounting practices. By positioning AI as a transformative force in the evolution of financial reporting theory, this study provides a basis for future research to explore the broader implications of AI adoption, particularly in areas such as audit automation, ethical standards, and the development of digital accounting frameworks.

Abstract

Inventory valuation and recording play a crucial role in shaping the quality of financial reporting, particularly in the manufacturing industry where production processes and inventory flow are complex. This study addresses how the use of different inventory accounting methods FIFO (First-In, First-Out) and Average (weighted average) impacts not only net income, but also inventory management efficiency and the company’s strategic positioning in the market. The objective of this research is to conduct a comparative analysis of the effects of these two methods within the accounting practices of manufacturing companies in Indonesia. A qualitative approach was employed through case studies of two large-scale manufacturing firms, using data collected from in-depth interviews and internal financial documentation. The results show that the FIFO method tends to generate higher net profits during periods of rising raw material prices, although it also leads to increased tax obligations. In contrast, the Average method offers more stable reporting outcomes and administrative efficiency, especially in businesses with homogeneous products and high inventory turnover. The discussion draws connections between these findings and PSAK 14, as well as prior literature, highlighting the importance of aligning inventory valuation methods with the operational context and strategic objectives of each company. Ultimately, the study concludes that no single method is universally superior. The effectiveness of implementation depends largely on business characteristics, the company’s internal recording system, and managerial priorities. These findings enhance theoretical understanding by framing inventory accounting choices as strategic financial decisions and offer practical insights for managers seeking to align financial reporting with long-term competitiveness.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the implementation of the Government Accounting Information System (SIAP) in improving the quality of regional financial reports, with a focus on the Regional Government in Lampung Province. In the context of bureaucratic reform and demands for public transparency, SIAP is expected to be a strategic instrument that not only supports administrative compliance, but also strengthens fiscal accountability through the presentation of real-time and integrated data. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques in the form of in-depth interviews and documentation. The results of the study indicate that SIAP contributes to increasing the accuracy and timeliness of reporting, as well as strengthening the internal oversight function. However, the implementation of SIAP still faces various obstacles, including weak digital literacy of human resources, lack of system integration, and low institutional commitment in several regions. The effectiveness of SIAP depends not only on technological sophistication, but also on organizational readiness, leadership quality, and regulatory alignment. This study emphasizes that the success of SIAP requires a holistic approach based on synergy between systems, people, and institutional structures. Thus, SIAP will be able to act as a foundation for transparent, accountable, and data-based regional financial governance, not just an administrative reporting tool.
