Sukardi, Sukardi, Munawaroh, Fauziah, Ramadhan, Muhammad Ebuziyya Alif
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the effect of service quality and sales promotion on consumer loyalty at Ihsan Mart in Kubu Raya. This study used an associative quantitative approach with 100 respondents selected through purposive… osive sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires with a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS. The results show that service quality and sales promotion have positive and significant effects on consumer loyalty, both partially and simultaneously. The regression results indicate that sales promotion has a greater contribution than service quality in increasing consumer loyalty. However, the coefficient of determination shows that service quality and sales promotion explain 16.3% of consumer loyalty, while the remaining 83.7% is influenced by other factors outside this study. These findings imply that local retail management should not only improve service quality and sales promotion programs, but also consider other factors such as customer satisfaction, product quality, price competitiveness, store atmosphere, and consumer trust to strengthen long-term consumer loyalty.

Determinants of Human Development in Indonesia: A Comparative Analysis of The Western and Eastern Regions

Rini, Puspa, Ridwan, Mochamad, Purmini, Purmini, Rospida, Lela
Abstract: This study examines the effects of health, education, economic, and infrastructure expenditures, economic growth, investment, and the Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) on the Human Development Index (HDI) in Indonesia.… a. It also compares the determinants of HDI between Western and Eastern Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach, the study applies panel data regression with the Common Effect Model and Ordinary Least Squares method. Secondary data from 2012–2021 were obtained from Statistics Indonesia, the Ministry of Finance, and other official institutions. The results show that all independent variables simultaneously have a significant effect on HDI. Partially, education expenditure, infrastructure expenditure, and investment have positive and significant effects, while health expenditure, economic expenditure, economic growth, and LFPR are statistically insignificant. Regional analysis reveals different determinants of HDI. In Western Indonesia, education expenditure, infrastructure expenditure, economic growth, and LFPR significantly affect HDI. In Eastern Indonesia, infrastructure expenditure, investment, and LFPR are significant determinants. These findings demonstrate that regional disparities in human development are associated with differences in economic capacity, infrastructure quality, investment distribution, connectivity, and development governance. Therefore, place-based development policies are required to improve the effectiveness and equity of human development, particularly in Eastern Indonesia.

Jusri, Jusri, Hasnidar, Hasnidar
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the simultaneous and partial effects of job satisfaction, employee loyalty, and work commitment on employee performance at PT Sulsel Citra Indonesia (Perseroda). This research adopts an associative… tive quantitative approach. Data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to 54 respondents drawn from a population of 114 permanent employees using simple random sampling. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26. The finding that The F-test result (Fcount = 60.515 > Ftable = 2.196; sig. = 0.000) confirms that all three variables simultaneously exert a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Partially, job satisfaction (t = 3.485; sig. = 0.001) and work commitment (t = 11.685; sig. = 0.000) each have a positive and significant effect on employee performance, while employee loyalty (t = -3.080; sig. = 0.003) shows a negative and significant effect. The adjusted R² of 0.771 indicates that 77.1% of the variance in employee performance is explained by the three predictors. Work commitment emerged as the dominant predictor of employee performance, followed by job satisfaction. The negative effect of employee loyalty suggests that loyalty alone does not directly translate into higher performance unless it is accompanied by adequate motivation, job satisfaction, and organizational support. These findings are consistent with previous empirical studies conducted in the plantation and service sectors

Analysis of Taxpayer Compliance Levels in The Payment of Motor Vehicle Tax (PKB) at The Samsat Office of Bantaeng Regency

Natasya, M.Ridwan Tikollah, Mukhammad Idrus
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the level of taxpayer compliance in paying Motor Vehicle Tax at the Samsat Office of Bantaeng Regency. The research uses a descriptive quantitative and qualitative approach with data collection… techniques through documentation, interviews, and observation. Quantitative analysis is carried out by measuring the formal compliance ratio based on the number of taxpayers who pay on time compared to the number of registered taxpayers, while qualitative analysis is conducted through indicators of awareness, compliance with due dates, compliance with regulations, willingness to pay, and views on Samsat services. The results of the study indicate that the level of taxpayer compliance is relatively high, but it shows a tendency to decrease from year to year. The decrease is influenced by the increasing number of registered vehicles that is not matched by an increase in awareness, the economic factors of the community, and delays in payment due to other priority needs. Service innovations such as mobile services and digital convenience contribute positively, but have not fully encouraged optimal compliance. This study confirms that improving compliance requires continuous education strategies, strengthening public services, and consistent supervision
