Despite how significant the impact of reducing the infant mortality rate to a country, countries in Southeast Asia, especially the lower middle-income few, still have a relatively high number of Infant mortality rate. Studies have been conducted on the impact of few variables that determine the number of Infant mortality rate. In this paper, the aim is to analyse a few socioeconomic variables such as GDP per Capita, health care expenditure as a share of GDP, total fertility rate and female participation in the labour force on infant mortality rate of lower middle-income countries in Southeast Asia. This study found that GDP per Capita and health care expenditure as a share of GDP have a significant and negative impact on infant mortality rate during the study period. While as Total fertility rate have a significant and positive impact on infant mortality rate, and there is no significant effect of female labour force participation rate on infant mortality rate in the studied countries during the study period.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors affecting domestic supply, domestic demand, and exports of cocoa beans in Indonesia. The model in this study used simultaneous equations with the analysis method in the form of Two Stage Least Square (2SLS). This research uses secondary data with a time period of 2006 - 2021. The results of this study explain that:(1) Domestic cocoa bean supply is influenced by domestic cocoa bean prices, domestic coffee bean prices, productivity levels, exports, and the previous year’s supply. (2) Domestic demand for cocoa beans is influenced by domestic cocoa bean prices, domestic coffee bean prices, exports, and the previous year’s demand. (3) Cocoa bean exports are influenced by international prices, exchange rates, domestic cocoa bean supply, and domestic cocoa bean demand. The results of this study are expected to contribute to policy recommendations for the government to maximize the supply, demand, and export of cocoa beans. The limitations of this study lie in the fact that the data was collected via the internet and sourced from several different publications, which may have led to discrepancies in the data for the same year.

Abstract

Permasalahan utama dalam penelitian ini muncul dari pentingnya memilih sumber pendanaan yang tepat bagi perusahaan, khususnya di sektor Consumer Cylicals yang membutuhkan pembiayaan besar untuk mendukung Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh profitabilitas, likuiditas, pertumbuhan perusahaan, dan struktur aset terhadap kebijakan utang pada perusahaan di sektor Consumer Cylicals yang tercatat di Bursa Efek Indonesia (BEI) selama periode 2021-2023. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan data sekunder dari laporan tahunan perusahaan. Sampel ditentukan dengan metode purposive sampling, perusahaan di sektor Konsorsium Silikal terdaftar di BEI sebanyak 123 perusahaan, dan perusahaan yang tidak memberikan laporan tahunan sebanyak 34 perusahaan sehingga diperoleh 90 perusahaan. Sementara itu, 77 data yang tidak memenuhi kriteria (casewise) dan data yang memenuhi persyaratan sebanyak 190 pengamatan alat analisis yang digunakan adalah regresi linier berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa struktur aset memiliki pengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kebijakan utang perusahaan, di sisi lain, profitabilitas, likuiditas, dan pertumbuhan perusahaan tidak mempengaruhi kebijakan utang. Perseroan menganggap struktur aset sebagai jaminan untuk memperoleh pendanaan eksternal daripada kinerja keuangan jangka pendek. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa perusahaan perlu mengelola struktur aset secara optimal untuk meningkatkan akses pembiayaan yang sehat, dan faktor profitabilitas dan likuiditas harus tetap dipertahankan sebagai indikator kesehatan keuangan secara umum, keterbatasan penelitian ini terletak pada ruang lingkup variabel yang hanya mencakup faktor internal serta ruang lingkup data yang terbatas pada sektor dalam tiga tahun ke depan, Studi ini disarankan untuk memasukkan variabel eksternal seperti suku bunga, inflasi dan faktor moratorium lainnya serta memperluas objek penelitian di sektor industri lainnya

Abstract

This study examines economic inequality in the Kedungsepur National Strategic Area, Central Java Province, which is still high despite the potential of leading sectors in each region. The objective is to identify leading sectors and analyze economic inequality in the region. The methods used include Location Quotient (LQ), Dynamic Location Quotient (DLQ), and Klassen Typology analysis, with secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics during the 2019-2023 period. The results show four leading sectors: Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries in Kendal; Government Administration in Demak; and Financial Services in Grobogan. However, not all regions have leading sectors, such as Semarang and Salatiga. The Williamson Index reveals that economic inequality in the region is still significant, indicating the need for strategies to maximize the potential of the leading sectors.In conclusion, although there are leading sectors that can boost the economy, inequality between regions in KSN Kedungsepur remains a challenge that must be overcome to achieve more equitable development.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi peningkatan adopsi e-banking di masyarakat pedesaan, khususnya di wilayah Batang Kuis. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan bahwa keuntungan dan keamanan yang dirasakan merupakan faktor dominan yang mendorong adopsi e-banking di kalangan masyarakat pedesaan di Batang Kuis. Penelitian ini berkontribusi pada literatur yang ada dengan menyelaraskan dengan Teori Utilitas, yang menyatakan bahwa manfaat yang dirasakan dan manfaat aktual merupakan pendorong utama adopsi teknologi individu. Berdasarkan temuan-temuan ini, studi ini merekomendasikan peningkatan langkah-langkah keamanan, peningkatan literasi keuangan melalui program-program pendidikan, dan peningkatan infrastruktur di daerah pedesaan untuk mendorong adopsi e-banking yang lebih besar. Hal ini memerlukan kolaborasi antara lembaga keuangan dan lembaga pemerintah. Namun, penelitian ini memiliki keterbatasan, termasuk ukuran sampel yang terbatas dan cakupan variabel yang terbatas. Penelitian di masa mendatang dapat memperluas sampel dan menggabungkan rentang variabel yang lebih luas untuk pemahaman yang lebih komprehensif tentang adopsi e-banking di lingkungan pedesaan.
