Analysis of Government Rice Absorption in Indonesia
Get PDFThis study analyzes the government\u27s absorption of rice in Indonesia. The government\u27s rice absorption has decreased in the last three years (2018-2020). The decrease in absorption is in line with the decline in farmer production and the difference between the government\u27s purchase price of rice and the market price. The purpose of this study was to test and analyze the difference between government rice prices and market prices (PBR) and the amount of rice production circulating in the community (JPB) on the government\u27s rice absorption capacity (DBP) in 34 Indonesian Provinces for the 2011-2020 period. Regression results with the Panel Model show that (PBR) and (JPB) have a significant positive effect on (DBP). Government policies and roles are urgently needed, especially in setting purchase prices for government rice and sustainably increasing the amount of production by facilitating agricultural facilities and infrastructure so that they can affect the government\u27s rice absorption capacity in Indonesia
Impact of the Independent Directors\u27 Social Network on Earnings Management Before and During the COVID-19 Period
Get PDFThis study examines the impact of the independent directors\u27 social network on earnings management before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic increased uncertainty and pressure in the business environment, which led to intensified earnings management of listed companies worldwide. The research constructs centrality indexes of the independent director social network through the social network analysis method and conducts an empirical study on 1,167 A-share listed companies in China from 2009 to 2020. The relationship between independent directors\u27 network centrality and accrual-based earnings management of companies is examined. Empirical results reveal that independent directors\u27 network centrality is associated with higher accrued earnings management and undesirable corporate practices such as earnings management can be disseminated through directors\u27 social networks. This research innovatively incorporates the research findings into the COVID-19 context, further indicating that independent directors\u27 social network is associated with higher accrued earnings management during the COVID-19 period than before. This research will provide insights for regulators, specifically regulators in China, regarding the independent directors\u27 composition and effectiveness

Combination of Zero Waste Patterns to Maximize Multi Fabric and Wastra Nusantara Applications
Get PDFThe fashion industry has long been known as the ultimate source of waste in landfills. Many designers and fashion enthusiasts tried to introduce slower fashion to promote sustainability. Among many approaches, the zero-waste pattern (ZWP) has been known as the keyword that captures the attention of many. The baseline is to produce any fashion pieces with 15% waste or up to nearly 0% waste from a piece of cloth. Because of this definition, many designers are trapped into thinking that Zero Waste Fashion (ZWF) products should only use mono fabric. Indonesia has various local fabrics (wastra) that can be explored. The initial bottom line of wastra is to use the whole fabric with no cutting at all. Therefore, the same spirit of ZWF is found relatable to the use of wastra in the modern context. This study aims to find the right multi-fabric combination using zero waste patterns on wastra. This study uses a design thinking method with an experimental approach. The fabric used in this research is limited to plain modern fabric and wastra with the tie-dye technique. This study found that the sustainable cutting technique is highly efficient when applied to fabric with a width of 115 cm to produce five clothing items. The wastra used should have a pattern that can be rotated without considering the position of the motifs that must meet each other

Get PDFSmall and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are pivotal in propelling the Indonesian economy. The stability and sustainability of economies in different regions have been greatly affected by the worldwide economic issues that have emerged due to the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the identified repercussions can be witnessed in the culinary sector of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Langsa City. Thus, this study examines the effect of internal and external factors on the performance of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) operating in the culinary sector within Langsa City. Additionally, this research aims to evaluate and propose strategies for enhancing the performance of SMEs in the culinary industry by employing a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis framework specifically tailored to the context of Langsa City. The present study uses a qualitative research design utilizing a case research approach. Data is gathered by distributing questionnaires, conducting in-depth interviews, and assessing validity through source triangulation. Based on the findings of the study, it was determined that the Internal Factor Analysis Summary (IFAS) and External Factor Analysis Summary (EFAS) about the performance evaluation of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) operating in the culinary sector in Langsa City have not yet reached their maximum potential. This conclusion was drawn through the application of SWOT analysis. This observation may be due to the outcomes of the Cartesian diagram utilized in the SWOT analysis.

However, the culinary small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) actors have internal strengths. To boost the performance of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the culinary sector, it is imperative to employ a Strengths-Threats (S-T) approach that focuses on implementing product diversification techniques
Ethereum Value Forecasting Model using Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA)
Get PDFThe purpose of this study is to test the ability of the ARIMA model to predict the value of Ethereum, especially during economic shocks such as the current COVID-19 pandemic. The population in this study is Ethereum value weekly data for the period January 2017 to December 2020, so there are 208 samples in this study. The results showed that the use of the ARIMA method in predicting the value of Ethereum got poor results, where the forecast value was very much different from the actual value. This is evidenced from the results of the accuracy test using MAPE which got a result of 51.94%. On the other hand, the economic conditions that are experiencing uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the emergence of deficit (decentralized finance) in early 2021 have pushed up a very significant increase in the value of Ethereum so that the error standard is higher and reduces the ability of the ARIMA model to predict the value of Ethereum. Further research is recommended to use a more advanced model such as the Autoregressive Fractionally Integrated Moving Average (AFRIMA) in order to obtain a better forecast value
