Assessing financial risks at PT Pertamina: insights from Monte Carlo and AltmanZ-score
Pandemi COVID-19 menyebabkan penurunan permintaan dan pasokan BBM yang signifikan, dengan harga minyak PT Pertamina turun menjadi USD 20 per barel pada tahun 2020. Mengingat situasi tersebut, penelitian ini menganalisis manajemen risiko keuangan PT Pertamina dari tahun 2012 hingga 2023, menggunakan simulasi Monte Carlo, analisis sensitivitas, dan model regresi untuk mengevaluasi dampak berbagai risiko terhadap indikator keuangan seperti total pendapatan, ROA, ROE, NPM, dan EBIT. Simulasi Monte Carlo menunjukkan fluktuasi laba bersih yang cukup besar karena volatilitas harga minyak dan perubahan nilai tukar. Analisis sensitivitas mengidentifikasi risiko operasional sebagai hal yang penting bagi keberlanjutan keuangan, sementara risiko pasar positif dalam kondisi tertentu. Analisis regresi menunjukkan bahwa fluktuasi nilai tukar secara signifikan berdampak pada Total Pendapatan, tetapi harga minyak memiliki efek minimal pada ROA dan ROE. Analisis Altman Z-Score mengungkapkan tren kesehatan keuangan yang menurun, terutama antara tahun 2016 dan 2020, dengan peningkatan risiko kebangkrutan. Meskipun PT Pertamina mengalami pemulihan pada 2021-2023, PT Pertamina tetap berada di zona berisiko tinggi, membutuhkan langkah-langkah strategis seperti diversifikasi bisnis, optimalisasi rantai pasokan, dan kebijakan nilai tukar proaktif untuk memastikan stabilitas jangka panjang
Customer engagement mediates the effect of content marketing on customer retention among mie sedaap consumers in surabaya
The transformation to digital marketing has significantly changed the competitive landscape of Indonesia's instant noodle industry. New brands have gained traction through effective content marketing (CM), challenging Mie Sedaap to adapt in order to retain its customers. This study aims to examine how CM influences customer retention (CR), with customer engagement (CE) as a mediating variable. Utilizing WarpPLS 8.0 and the Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method, primary data was gathered using purposive sampling. A total of 130 respondents completed the questionnaire. Four hypotheses were tested to explore both direct and mediating effects. All hypotheses were supported, confirming significant relationships among the variables. The findings reveal that CM positively impacts CR, both directly and indirectly through CE. Customers who engage by liking, commenting, or sharing branded content are more emotionally connected to the brand, enhancing loyalty, repeat purchases, and word-of-mouth promotion. These results underscore the strategic importance of engaging and emotionally resonant content in fostering long-term customer relationships. For companies in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector, particularly instant noodles, crafting interactive, relevant, and emotionally appealing content is critical. Investing in such strategies can strengthen customer loyalty and provide a competitive edge in the increasingly digital marketplace

Purchase decisions for skincare products are significantly influenced by social media and e-WOM, according to the research. The findings indicate that interactions and information received through social media as well as positive reviews from other users can influence consumers' level of trust and increase their propensity to make purchases. The implication is that companies in the skincare industry should utilize social media and e-WOM strategies as part of their marketing efforts to attract more consumers
The effects of positive emotion and bonus packs in encouraging impulse buying
The impact of good emotions and bonus pack promotion tactics on impulsive shoppers in retail establishments, specifically at Indomaret and Alfamart in Cirebon, was investigated in this study using a quantitative methodology. The research population consisted of 399 individuals aged between 19 and 24, drawn from 263,781 people. The sampling formula used was Slovin's formula, and the samples were selected randomly. The research hypothesis was tested using random sampling based on Slovin's formula. The study results indicate that positive emotions and bonus packs affect the desire to purchase at Indomaret and Alfamart stores. The primary effect is that bonus packs encourage impulsive buying. This is because bonus packs provide immediate added value to consumers, such as additional products or discounts to enhance appeal and purchase interest. These findings offer insights and strategic guidance for retail businesses in designing marketing strategies, particularly targeting students. Such strategies may include a combination of attractive bonus pack promotions and creating a pleasant shopping experience to encourage impulse buying and enhance customer loyalty
Green curriculum, green campaigns, and financial rewards: limited impact on students’ pro-environmental awareness in higher education
Higher education plays a crucial role in shaping future generations’ environmental awareness and actions. This study examines whether common university strategies, such green curriculum, green campaigns, and financial rewards, effectively encourage students’ pro-environmental behavior. Using survey data from 124 accounting students at a private university in Surabaya, Indonesia, we applied Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to test the relationships among these variables. The findings suggest that both green curriculum and green campaigns show positive yet statistically insignificant effects on students’ pro-environmental behavior. It indicates that exposure to sustainability concepts and awareness initiatives alone do not guarantee behavioral change. In contrast, financial rewards demonstrate a strong and significant positive effect. It means that tangible incentives can effectively motivate students to adopt and maintain eco-friendly habits. These results highlight the importance of combining intrinsic and extrinsic motivators, as well as embedding sustainability values into campus culture through practical engagement and institutional support. We believe that our study contributes to the ongoing debate on sustainability education by showing that well-designed reward systems can encourage pro-environmental behavior.
Behavioral intention on tropical island tourism: assessing the destination image effect through mte and satisfaction
East Java Province is a major driver of domestic tourism in Indonesia and has strong potential for developing its remote tropical islands. However, tourism growth in these areas is hindered by limited accessibility and inadequate infrastructure. This study examines how sustainable tourism can be promoted by analyzing the relationships among destination image, memorable tourism experiences (MTEs), tourist satisfaction, and behavioural intention. Using a quantitative approach, data from 155 visitors were analyzed with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that destination image positively influences MTEs and satisfaction but does not directly affect behavioural intention. Instead, behavioural intention is shaped through the mediating effects of MTEs and satisfaction, both of which are key drivers of tourists’ intention to revisit and recommend destinations. The findings emphasize that positive perceptions of safety and infrastructure must be translated into meaningful and memorable experiences to create value for tourists. The study provides strategic insights for policymakers and destination managers, highlighting the importance of shifting tourism development and marketing efforts from image-focused promotion to experience-oriented strategies supported by adequate infrastructure, in order to strengthen tourist loyalty, encourage positive word-of-mouth, and support sustainable tourism redistributio

Generational compensation preferences in cement logistics: insights from gen X, Y, and Z employees
This qualitative study investigates generational differences in compensation preferences among employees in a cement logistics warehouse, focusing on Generations X, Y, and Z. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed thematically. Findings reveal distinct patterns: Generation X favors stability, predictable salary increases, and established benefits; Generation Y values competitive pay, promotion-based raises, and benefit equity; and Generation Z prioritizes market-aligned salaries, customizable benefits, and flexible work. While the current system delivers stability for Generation X and transparency for Generation Y, it lacks the flexibility, modernization, and equity sought by younger cohorts. Fairness perceptions are mixed, with younger employees more aware of inequities toward contract staff. Limited to one organizational context and qualitative design, the study offers the insights for adopting generationally responsive HR strategies that balance stability with flexibility, modernized benefits, and participatory policy-making to improve motivation, retention, and performance
The Influence of halal awareness, lifestyle, halal literacy on halal certification interest in culinary MSMEs
This study aims to analyze the influence of halal awareness, lifestyle, and halal literacy on the interest in halal certification in culinary MSMEs in Medan Johor District. The method used is a descriptive quantitative approach with a sample of 255 MSMEs. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS version 25. The results showed that lifestyle and halal literacy have a positive and significant influence on the interest in halal certification, while halal awareness does not have a considerable effect. Regression tests show that lifestyle contributes 38.9% and halal literacy 38.1% to the interest in halal certification. Simultaneously, halal awareness, lifestyle, and halal literacy affect the interest in halal certification with an Adjusted R Square value of 44.3%, while other factors influence 55.7%. These findings support the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), where lifestyle reflects subjective norms and halal literacy increases behavioral control in the certification process. With the increasing trend of halal lifestyle, MSME actors need to adapt to market demand and increase halal literacy to support halal certification
