This study analyzed 829 observation units from 168 non-financial Indonesian companies from 2018-2022. The data were analyzed using panel data regression with the help of EViews 13. The findings showed that in a 5-year period, only RC and CE significantly improve financial performance. However, only CE significantly improve financial performance before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. This indicates that non-financial Indonesian companies rely heavily on physical and financial capital investment in improving financial performance, both in non-crisis and crisis conditions. The findings offer implications for management and investors regarding the importance of optimizing IC investment, especially RC and CE efficiently to achieve high financial performance under uncertain conditions.</em></p> Tsania Rahmawati, Endang Sri Andayani, Nurika Restuningdiah Copyright (c) 2024 Tsania Rahmawati, Endang Sri Andayani, Nurika Restuningdiah https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/355 Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000 The Effect of Corporation Reputation Mediation on Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Disclosure and Firm Value https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/356 <p><em>Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) disclosure can support companies to assess various threats and opportunities to maintain the firm's competitive advantage. The aim of this research is to analyze the effect of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) disclosure on firm value with corporate reputation as a moderating variable. The research method used is an explanatory descriptive quantitative approach. The sample population for this research is manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) in 2018-2021. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, so that 38 companies were obtained. Data analysis techniques use inner model, outer model and hypothesis testing with the help of SmartPLS 4.0.9.5 software. The research results show that Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) disclosure and corporate reputation have a positive and significant effect on firm value. Corporate reputation has a positive and significant effect in mediating Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) disclosure on firm value. This research also uses profitability and firm size as control variables. The results of profitability research do not have a positive effect on firm value. Firm size has a positive effect on firm value. Recommendations for further research are to expand the variables used, such as corporate social responsibility, intellectual capital, corporate governance structure.</em></p> Zakiyah Fitri Firdausiyah, Helianti Utami, Triadi Agung Sudarto Copyright (c) 2024 Zakiyah Fitri Firdausiyah, Helianti Utami, Triadi Agung Sudarto https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/356 Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000 A Marine Tourism Management Model Based on Community-Based Tourism and Its Role in Increasing The Income of Coastal Communities in Balikpapan City https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/357 <p><em>This study aims to describe the management of community-based tourism in the coastal area of Balikpapan City, analyze the suitability between the assessment of interests and expectations of the community towards the implementation of CBT dimensions, and determine the effect of marine tourism development on increasing the income of coastal communities.

This study aims to examine and evaluate the impact of environmental concern, altruistic values orientation, and perceived behavioral control on green purchase intention, with attitude as a mediating variable. The subjects of this research are individuals aware of environmental issues and the N’PURE skincare product line, residing in Jakarta, Bandung, Semarang, Surabaya, Yogyakarta, and Tangerang. A total of 153 respondents participated in this study. Purposive sampling was employed for sample selection, and the analysis was conducted using structural equation modeling (SEM) with the SmartPLS analytical tool. The study findings reveal that environmental concern, altruistic value orientation, and perceived behavioral control play significant and substantial roles in shaping consumer attitude. Both environmental concern and altruistic value orientation contribute positively, albeit modestly, to the intention to purchase eco-friendly products. Conversely, perceived behavioral control demonstrates a strong and significant effect in determining consumers' intentions to buy green products. Additionally, attitude significantly influences the propensity of consumers to purchase eco-friendly products. Consumer attitude fully mediates the impact of environmental concern on the intention to choose green products, as well as the effect of altruistic value orientation on this intention. Meanwhile, attitude serves as a partial mediator in the influence of perceived behavioral control on the intention to buy eco-friendly products. This study provides valuable theoretical and practical insights into consumer purchasing patterns regarding eco-friendly products.</em></p> Ida Royani, Erna Sofriana Imaningsih Copyright (c) 2024 Ida Royani, Erna Sofriana Imaningsih https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/367 Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Determining Key Factors of Customer Satisfaction and Repurchase Intention for Azarine Cosmetic on Shopee https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/368 <p><em>With the development of the beauty industry, especially in the realm of local products, companies need to maintain customer loyalty. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between EWOM, brand image, product quality, and price perception that influence repurchase intentions and their impact on customer satisfaction of the Azarine Cosmetic brand on the Shopee platform. Using a quantitative approach, this study involved 135 respondents in Jabodetabek who have used Azarine products and purchased them on Shopee at least once. The data analysis method used was Structure Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The study results indicate that product quality and price perception have a significant impact on customer satisfaction and repurchase intention. Meanwhile, EWOM and brand image do not have a significant impact on customer satisfaction and repurchase intention. Customer satisfaction also significantly affects repurchase intention. Customer satisfaction partially mediates the relationship between product quality and repurchase intention, but does not mediate the relationship between EWOM, brand image, and price perception on repurchase intention.</em></p> Sandra Rosa Noviandari, Achmad Fachrodji Copyright (c) 2024 Sandra Rosa Noviandari, Achmad Fachrodji https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/368 Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Profitability, Leverage, Firm Value through Dividend Policy (Empirical Study on Coal and Lignite Mining Sub-Sector Companies on the IDX 2017-2022) https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/383 <p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>This study examines the influence of profitability and leverage on firm value as mediated by dividend policy. The research employs quantitative approaches, examining comparative cause-and-effect links utilizing secondary data from each company's financial records, obtained from either the company's official website or the IDX. This study used a non-probability, purposive sampling technique in coal and lignite subsector companies listed on the IDX from 2017 to 2022, using complete financial data. The research data is panel data examined using Eviews 12 with the subsequent steps of analysis: descriptive statistics, regression model estimation, classical assumptions, panel data regression, and path analysis using the sobel test. The analysis suggests that profitability and leverage have a significant positive effect on firm value, dividend policy has no effect on firm value, profitability has no influence on dividend policy, and leverage increases dividend policy. Consequently, dividend policy cannot mediate the effect of profitability but can mediate the effect of leverage on firm value.</em></p> Emma Suryani, Fauji Sanusi, Sunenti Copyright (c) 2024 Emma Suryani, Fauji Sanusi, Sunenti https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://equatorscience.com/index.php/jabter/article/view/383 Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000
