Abstract:Direct incentive programs from a brand manufacturer to a distributor's sales force are uncommon in the Indonesian B2B lighting sector, and their consequences for portfolio composition and distributor profitability have not…
ot been empirically tested. This study examines whether a flat 3 percent quarterly bonus, applied uniformly across a portfolio of more than three hundred products spanning a 600-fold price range, produces unintended consequences beyond its stated goal of volume growth. A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design is used. The quantitative phase analyses 781 product-quarter observations covering 326 products over eleven quarters from mid-2023 through end-2025. The qualitative phase uses confirmatory interviews with seventeen informants from distributor management and sales teams. The incentive program successfully drives all four sales performance dimensions measured in the study, covering volume growth, revenue share, transaction frequency, and a cumulative growth index, all of which are statistically significant. However, higher-priced products attract significantly fewer transactions per quarter and grow more slowly over time. Seven of eight hypotheses are supported. Qualitative findings confirm that the incentive effect adds to total selling activity rather than redirecting it, but transaction attention consistently concentrates on lower-priced products across the eleven-quarter period. The study extends agency theory to a three-party setting and provides the first panel-level evidence of composition effects from a uniform sales incentive in Indonesian B2B distribution.

Abstract:This study aims to analyze the effect of capital structure on firm value with profitability as a moderating variable in consumer non-cyclical sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2021–2024. Capital…
pital structure was measured using Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR) and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), firm value was proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV), while profitability was measured using Return on Assets (ROA). This research applied a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from annual financial reports. The sample consisted of 154 observations selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with SPSS software. The results show that DAR has a positive and significant effect on firm value, while DER has a negative but insignificant effect on firm value. Simultaneously, DAR and DER significantly affect firm value. Furthermore, profitability (ROA) is proven to strengthen the relationship between DAR and firm value as well as between DER and firm value. These findings indicate that an optimal capital structure supported by strong profitability can increase firm value. Therefore, companies should maintain a balanced financing composition and improve profitability to enhance market valuation.

o strengthen a bank's competitive position. PT Bank Woori Saudara Indonesia 1906 Tbk introduced the WiGo Savings product, specifically designed for South Korean citizens who plan to live or work in Indonesia through a pre-account opening scheme. This research aims to analyze the role of WiGo Savings in enhancing the bank's competitiveness, particularly in terms of product differentiation and the potential strengthening of low-cost funds (CASA). The study employs a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study method, using literature review and secondary data analysis from bank reports, media publications, and academic references related to banking innovation. The findings indicate that the pre-arrival account opening mechanism reduces administrative barriers, accelerates service activation, and creates early customer engagement. The product also shows the potential to increase CASA composition, leading to lower cost of funds and greater flexibility in credit pricing. Furthermore, WiGo enhances product differentiation and institutional branding as a bank responsive to cross-border transaction needs. However, its effectiveness depends on successful market education, cross-jurisdiction regulatory compliance, and technological system integration.
Abstract:This study synthesized Ni-doped ZnO (Ni0.05Zn0.95O) and TiO2 (Ni0.05Ti0.95O2) via immersion-assisted coprecipitation for hydrogen production. UV-Vis confirmed bandgap reduction to 2.87 eV (ZnO) and 2.82 eV (TiO2), enabling…
ng visible light activity. XRD and SEM verified Ni incorporation and a significant reduction in crystal size (to 21 nm). To mitigate rapid particle sedimentation (25 min), sodium silicate was applied as a dispersant, successfully extending suspension stability to 4 hours. Notably, this chemical stabilization maintained a lower reactor temperature (49°C) compared to mechanical stirring (52°C), preventing efficiency loss due to thermal effects. Ni0.05Zn0.95O exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity, attributed to its superior Ni atomic composition. This research demonstrates that combining Ni-doping with chemical dispersion effectively optimizes both the electronic and physical properties of photocatalysts for enhanced hydrogen harvesting.

Abstrak. Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) merupakan minyak kelapa yang diekstraksi yang mengandung asam lemak yang memiliki rantai sedang yang telah dipercaya memiliki banyak fungsi untuk kesehatan. asam lemak tersebut mudah dicerna dan diserap oleh usus karena ukuran molekulnya relatif kecil sehingga dapat langsung dibakar oleh tubuh untuk memproduksi energi. Selain itu, VCO mengandung asam laurat yang dapat melarutkan membran virus berupa lipid sehingga akan mengganggu kekebalan virus, sehingga virus menjadi inaktif. VCO diproses tanpa pemanasan, tidak ada tambahan bahan kimia, pewarna, dan pengawet sehingga dapat bertahan sebagai minyak nabati murni sehingga tidak merubah komposisi atau karakteristik minyak. VCO mempunyai nilai ekonomis yang tinggi. Proses pembuatannya mudah. Metode dalam Pengabdian Masyarakat ini adalah Penyuluhan, langsung Praktek dan diskusi. Diharapkan pemanfaatan buah kelapa tidak hanya dijual dalam bentuk buah tanpa diolah tetapi buah kelapa diolah menjadi minyak kelapa murni atau Virgin Coconut Oil dan dapat dikembangkan secara lebih luas lagi melalui program kewirausahaan kelompok sehingga meningkatkan pendapatan jemaat, khususnya kelompok Kaum Perempuan di Jemaat GMIT Marturia Oesapa Selatan, Kecamatan Kelapa Lima Kota Kupang.
