William Laia, Nani Sri Rezeki
Abstract: This study discusses a peanut shelling machine driven by a gasoline-engineered motor . In Indonesia, many processed peanut products require peanuts as a component, such as salted peanuts, peanut oil, peanut paste, peanut… tofu, and others. Manual peanut shelling is usually inefficient and time-consuming. Therefore, with this machine, which can automatically peel peanuts, it will greatly help save time and increase production capacity. Based on planning calculations for the planned components, the following data was obtained: Gasoline engine used = 5.5 Hp , Pad = 6005 , Belt length to peeler = 65 inches , Belt length to blower = 25 inches , Diameter pulley blower = 4 inches , Pulley diameter peeler = 11 inches , Diameter pulley driver = 2 inches . After analyzing the production/manufacturing costs of this machine, the price for manufacturing 1 peanut peeling machine was Rp4,019,372.24 .

Tinjauan Hukum Administrasi Negara Terhadap Efektivitas Pemungutan Retribusi Sampah Berdasarkan Perda Bangkalan No. 1 Tahun 2024

Fitron, Dimas Fian Wahyu Mahardika
Abstract: AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji efektivitas pemungutan retribusi pelayanan persampahan di Kabupaten Bangkalan pasca berlakunya Peraturan Daerah Kabupaten Bangkalan Nomor 1 Tahun 2024 tentang Pajak Daerah dan Retribusi… ribusi Daerah. Melalui pendekatan Hukum Administrasi Negara, kajian ini membedah keabsahan wewenang, instrumen yuridis, dan hambatan operasional Dinas Lingkungan Hidup Kabupaten Bangkalan. Analisis dilakukan dengan menerapkan teori kewenangan Philipus M. Hadjon, teori instrumen pemerintahan Ridwan HR, serta teori efektivitas hukum Soerjono Soekanto. Hasil penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa rencana penerapan retribusi sampah bagi dapur Program Makan Bergizi Gratis sebesar dua ratus ribu rupiah per bulan berdasarkan Peraturan Daerah Nomor 3 Tahun 2024 dan Peraturan Bupati Nomor 9 Tahun 2025 belum berjalan efektif. Tingkat kepatuhan wajib retribusi sangat rendah karena hanya sekitar dua puluh pelaksana yang melakukan pembayaran. Penyebab utama meliputi ketidakjelasan skema pelayanan akibat tarif yang tidak mencakup biaya pengangkutan sampah, kelumpuhan infrastruktur di Tempat Pemrosesan Akhir Buluh, dan lemahnya penegakan sanksi administratif oleh aparat pemungut. Situasi ini memicu tindakan kedinasan non-prosedural serta konflik sosial-ekologis dengan masyarakat desa setempat. Guna menyelesaikan permasalahan tersebut, diperlukan klarifikasi skema pelayanan yang mencakup seluruh komponen biaya, rehabilitasi infrastruktur pemrosesan sampah, serta penguatan penegakan sanksi administratif untuk meningkatkan kepatuhan dan efektivitas pemungutan retribusi. Kata Kunci: Hukum Administrasi Negara; Retribusi Sampah; Efektivitas Hukum; Kabupaten Bangkalan. AbstractThis study aims to examine the effectiveness of waste service retribution collection in Bangkalan Regency following the enactment of Bangkalan Regency Regional Regulation Number 1 of 2024 concerning Regional Taxes and Retributions. Using an Administrative Law approach, this research analyzes the legitimacy of authority, juridical instruments, and operational obstacles faced by the Environmental Agency of Bangkalan Regency. The analysis applies Philipus M. Hadjon’s theory of authority, Ridwan HR’s theory of government instruments, and Soerjono Soekanto’s theory of legal effectiveness. The findings reveal that the planned implementation of a waste retribution fee of two hundred thousand rupiah per month for kitchens under the Free Nutritious Meals Program (Program Makan Bergizi Gratis), based on Regional Regulation Number 3 of 2024 and Regent Regulation Number 9 of 2025, has not been effective. The level of compliance among retribution payers remains very low, with only approximately twenty operators making payments. The main causes include unclear service schemes due to tariffs that do not cover waste transportation costs, the dysfunction of infrastructure at the Buluh Final Processing Site (Tempat Pemrosesan Akhir Buluh), and weak enforcement of administrative sanctions by collection officers. This situation has triggered non-procedural administrative actions and socio-ecological conflicts with local village communities. To address these issues, it is necessary to clarify the service scheme to include all cost components, rehabilitate waste processing infrastructure, and strengthen the enforcement of administrative sanctions in order to improve compliance and the overall effectiveness of retribution collection. Keywords: Administrative Law; Waste Retribution; Legal Effectiveness; Bangkalan Regency.

In this study using Non Proability Sampling techniques, Non Proability Sampling, namely sample selection with non-probability methods or non-randomly, population elements do not have the same opportunity to be selected as samples. This is done based on the consideration of relatively fast hang times and relatively cheap costs, then the sampling method uses Accidental Sampling, Accidental sampling is a sampling technique based on chance, that is, anyone who accidentally meets the researcher can be used as a sample, if it is considered that the person who happened to meet is suitable as a source of data. From the results of this study shows that the value of t-count obtained is 8.204 and t-table 1.661 it can be seen that t-count is greater than t-table (8.204 > 1.661) so that H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted meaning that the hypothesis is accepted, so it can be explained that brand image has a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions, with a value I of 0.644 and a value of coefficient of determination (R square) of 0.641 which means the influence of brand image variables (x) on the purchase decision variable (y) is 64.1% while the remaining 35.9% is explained by other factors or variables that are unknown and not included in this study.

Comparison Analysis of Accounting Standards for Entities Without Public Accountability and Financial Standards for Private Entities of SMEs in Indonesia

Iluwati, Jennifer, Sherly, Sherly, Febriana, Helen
Abstract: IFRS SME establishes standards that serve as recommendations for preparing financial reports for small and medium-sized businesses. SME IFRS originates from all IFRS simplifications intended to simplify financial reporting… ng and cost-benefit analysis for SME clients. The Financial Accounting Standards for Organizations Without Public Accountability (SAK ETAP), established on May 19, 2009, continues to oversee private businesses' financial accounts. However, SAK ETAP does not give advice to private firms on the explanation of gross revenue that is directly relevant to taxes determination. As a consequence, Indonesia has established a new SAK for private firms known as the SAK EP. The use of SAK EP in the preparation of financial statements for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSME) can simplify the use of international accounting standards, lowering the higher costs associated with full IFRS implementation and the emergence of numerous new accounts and changes in financial statement presentation. New accounts include accounts for current tax, deferred tax, employee benefit duties, and post-employment benefit liabilities, as well as revised accounts for accruing costs, equity, and comprehensive income (expenses).

Imoh Emmanuel, Ph.D., Uwem,, Timilehin Olasoji, Ph.D., Olubiyi,, Arinola Aramide, Ph.D., Kuforiji,, Kabiru, Ishola, Ph.D., Genty,
Abstract: Increased productivity in SMEs in terms of quality service delivery is crucial for economic growth and development. Most SMEs are bedevilled with destructive workplace deviant behaviour, particularly the incivility of owners/managers… ners/managers and employees towards customers, which have different consequences for workplace performance parameters such as a decline in sales, low patronage, and by extension, weak gross domestic product contribution. Using the social exchange theory, this cross-sectional study examined the influence of workplace incivility on productivity among 365 owners/managers, supervisors, and employees of SMEs in the liquefied petroleum gas sub-sector in Lagos State. Stratified proportionate sampling was utilized to select the respondents. The outcomes revealed that workplace incivility in the form of rudeness, discourteous disposition, and derogatory remarks predicted productivity in terms of an interaction between customers and employees and the capacity of the service process. Also, our findings accentuated the essence of avoiding direct and indirect costs that are linked with workplace incivility. The study recommended the communal and positive interpersonal relationships between owners/managers, employees, and customers and suggested training on emotional intelligence as a panacea for behavioral responses.
