ing housing purchase decisions. This study aims to analyze the mediating role of brand image in the influence of product quality, price, and location on millennial cluster property purchase decisions in Bogor Regency. A quantitative approach was employed using a descriptive and verificative research design. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 220 millennial consumers who had experience purchasing or were directly involved in purchasing cluster property in Bogor Regency. The research instrument was measured using a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using structural equation modeling to test direct and indirect effects. The results show that product quality, price, and location have positive and significant effects on brand image. Product quality, price, location, and brand image also have positive and significant effects on purchase decision. Furthermore, brand image partially mediates the effects of product quality, price, and location on purchase decision. These findings indicate that millennial property purchase decisions are shaped by both rational property attributes and psychological trust in developer reputation.
Abstract:This study examines the effect of inflation, interest rates (BI7DRR), and exchange rates (USD/IDR) on stock returns of PT Telkom Indonesia (Persero) Tbk., with the Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) as an intervening variable.…
e. Using a quantitative explanatory research design, monthly secondary data spanning January 2016 to December 2025 (120 observations) were analysed using Pearson correlation and two-stage path analysis (OLS regression). Results indicate that inflation and exchange rates significantly influence IHSG, while the BI Rate does not. However, neither macroeconomic variables nor IHSG significantly affect Telkom's stock returns either directly or indirectly. The model explains only 2.7% of the variation in stock returns, suggesting that company-specific and sectoral factors dominate return determination. These findings imply that IHSG does not serve as an effective mediating channel between macroeconomic conditions and individual stock returns for Telkom. Investors in the telecommunications sector should prioritise fundamental and sectoral analysis over macroeconomic indicators when making portfolio decisions
Abstract:This study examines the effects of the VAT rate increase and lifestyle on purchasing decisions among consumers in the Malang area, with tax literacy as a moderating variable. An explanatory quantitative design was applied…
d using PLS-SEM (SmartPLS 4.0) with 81 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The results indicate that VAT rate increase (β = 0.537; p = 0.000) and lifestyle (β = 0.285; p = 0.024) each have a significant positive effect on purchasing decisions. Tax literacy does not directly affect purchasing decisions (β = 0.066; p = 0.465), but functions as a significant moderator: it strengthens the effect of the VAT rate increase (β = 0.309; p = 0.037) while weakening the effect of lifestyle (β = −0.337; p = 0.031). These findings suggest that tax literacy may shift the basis of consumer decision-making toward a more rational-fiscal orientation, offering preliminary evidence for the value of tax education programs that address everyday consumption contexts

Abstract:This study examines the rapid expansion of the coffee shop industry in Makassar City as a phenomenon that creates not only economic opportunities but also increasing competitive saturation. As coffee shops in Makassar have…
ve developed beyond places of beverage consumption into urban social spaces linked to lifestyle, sociability, symbolic visibility, and identity formation, competition has become denser and more complex. The study aims to gain an in-depth understanding of how coffee shop owners and managers experience, interpret, and respond to this increasingly crowded market. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research employed in-depth semi-structured interviews with business actors involved in strategic and operational decision-making, supported by contextual observation and business-related documents. The findings reveal five main themes: market growth is experienced as both opportunity and pressure; similarity among coffee shops increases vulnerability and reduces perceived distinctiveness; entrepreneurs rely on continuous adaptation rather than fixed strategies; business sustainability is understood as stability, relevance, and survival rather than expansion alone; and competition is shaped not only by product and price, but also by ambience, visibility, symbolic value, and lifestyle alignment.
Abstract:This study seeks to examine the role of investment decisions among Generation Z students by analyzing the roles of financial literacy, Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), and financial technology. A quantitative approach was employed…
loyed using primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to Generation Z students. The sample consisted of 89 respondents selected through a random sampling technique. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares (PLS) with the support of SmartPLS software, including the evaluation of the measurement model, structural model, and hypothesis testing through bootstrapping. The findings reveal that financial literacy, FOMO, and financial technology have positive and significant effects on investment decisions. These results indicate that cognitive factors, such as financial literacy, along with behavioral and technological factors, including FOMO and fintech, play significant roles in shaping investment behavior. This study contributes to the existing literature by providing empirical insights into investment decision-making among Generation Z in the context of financial literacy, psychological influences, and technology adoption.
Abstract:This study aims to explore auditors' experiences in digital auditing practices, the meaning of professional ethics, and ethical dilemmas in the context of digital disruption using a phenomenological approach. The study was…
as conducted at a Public Accounting Firm (KAP) in Surabaya, with auditors who had experience in technology-based audits as informants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, then analyzed using a phenomenological approach supported by NVivo software. The results show that digital auditing practices are still dominated by the use of simple technologies such as Microsoft Excel for data processing, analysis, and audit documentation. Although technology increases efficiency, auditors still do not fully rely on the system and still use professional judgment to maintain the reliability of audit results. Professional ethics is understood as a primary foundation that remains valid, but is reinterpreted in the digital context, particularly related to efficiency pressures and technological risks. Ethical dilemmas arise due to time constraints, incomplete data, and client demands, so auditors tend to prioritize the sufficiency of evidence and prudence in decision-making. Overall, this study concludes that digital disruption does not change the fundamental values of auditors' professional ethics, but rather reconstructs their meaning through work experiences and professional interactions.
Abstract:This research investigates how financial literacy affects the financial behaviors of students on Lombok Island. Utilizing a quantitative methodology, the study surveyed 110 students to gather relevant data. The findings…
reveal that a higher level of financial literacy has a substantial positive impact on students' financial habits and decision-making processes. Conversely, the role of financial technology (fintech) was found to be substantial in influencing or moderating these behaviors within the studied population. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of enhancing financial literacy programs to foster more responsible and informed financial practices among students. Developing such initiatives can contribute to better financial stability and decision-making skills in the future

stment requirements. This condition requires companies to manage their finances effectively, making financial ratio analysis important in evaluating corporation performance. This study aims to analyze the effect of activity ratios, liquidity ratios, and solvency ratios on the financial performance of telecommunication companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period. This research uses a quantitative approach with a descriptive research design. The data used are secondary data obtained from financial statements. The sampling technique uses purposive sampling with 18 companies over a three-year period, resulting in 54 observations. The analysis method used is multiple linear regression with SPSS. The independent variables include activity ratio (TATO), liquidity ratio (CR), and solvency ratio (DER), while the dependent variable is financial performance (ROE). The outcome show that partially, the activity ratio does not have a substantial effect on financial performance. Meanwhile, liquidity and solvency ratios have a negative and substantial effect on financial performance. Simultaneously, all three ratios have a substantial effect on financial performance. These findings indicate that financial performance is influenced by asset management, the ability to meet obligations, and capital structure.
Abstract:This study aims to analyze the influence of management accounting systems on the performance of culinary MSMEs and test the role of sustainability reporting as a moderation variable. The research uses a quantitative approach…
oach with a survey method of 100 culinary MSMEs operating in the central area of Makassar City. Data were collected through a questionnaire with a Likert scale and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling based on Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM). The results of the study show that the management accounting system does not have a significant effect on business performance. This indicates that most MSMEs still do not make optimal use of accounting information in decision-making. Meanwhile, sustainability reporting has been proven to have a positive and significant influence on business performance. However, sustainability reporting is not able to moderate the relationship between management accounting systems and business performance. These findings show that sustainability practices have a more direct role in improving the performance of MSMEs compared to management accounting systems that have not been implemented effectively. This research contributes to the development of management and sustainability accounting literature, as well as provides practical implications for MSME actors in improving business performance through the integration of information systems and sustainable business practices.
