Employee performance has become a critical focus due to inconsistent achievement of monthly work targets and indications of imbalance between workload and received compensation. Adopting a quantitative approach, the study involved all 30 employees of KSP Karya Abadi as the research sample, using a census sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the help of SPSS 25.0. The findings reveal that workload has a negative and significant effect on employee performance, while work environment and compensation each have a positive and significant effect. Simultaneously, all three variables significantly influence employee performance. These results underscore the importance of balanced workload management, a supportive work environment, and fair compensation as key factors in enhancing employee productivity and, consequently, strengthening cooperative business performance.</em></p> 2025-10-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economics Development Research (IJEDR) https://journal.yrpipku.com/index.php/ijedr/article/view/9008 Management Strategy for Community Zakat Fund Collection for Sustainable Human Prosperity and Well-Being in Singapore 2025-09-28T05:24:04+00:00 Muhamad Rahman Bayumi muhamadrahmanbayumi_uin@radenfatah.ac.id M.

This study contributes to the finance and sustainability literature by integrating financial performance, sustainability performance, and earnings management practices into a single research model within the coal sector in Southeast Asia. Previous studies mostly focused on the direct relationship between financial or ESG performance and stock prices, while this study highlights the role of earnings management as both a strengthening and weakening factor in such relationships. This research provides practical implications for investors to consider not only profitability but also governance transparency in order to avoid information distortion caused by earnings management.

This study aims to examine the effect of ownership structure on earnings management practices and to analyze the role of firm size as a moderating variable. The theory employed in this study is agency theory. The research was conducted on all manufacturing companies in the consumer goods sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2021-2023. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling method, resulting in 52 companies that met the criteria, with a total of 156 observations. The data analysis technique used in this study is moderated regression analysis. The results show that institutional ownership, foreign ownership, and public ownership have negative effects on earnings management. Firm size weakens the negative effect of institutional ownership and public ownership on earnings management. However, firm size does not moderate the relationship between foreign ownership and earnings management. The findings of this study highlight the importance of ownership structure as an effective monitoring mechanism especially for larger firms. These results can serve as a consideration for stakeholders in enhancing corporate governance and monitoring effectiveness.</em></p> 2025-10-09T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economics Development Research (IJEDR) https://journal.yrpipku.com/index.php/ijedr/article/view/9235 Analysis of Client Importance and Workload in Predicting Fraud Behavior in Local Government 2025-10-10T13:54:24+00:00 Fitria Fertha Agustina fitriafertha19@gmail.com Andi Mulyono andi@gmail.com <p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>This study examines the relationship between client importance and workload in predicting fraudulent behavior by emphasizing the role of client frequency and reputation, work time and volume, productivity level, auditor knowledge, and doubtful attitudes. Located in a local government, the study highlights how these constructs influence fraudulent behavior. Using a questionnaire and analyzed with multiple linear regression, this study shows that client importance and workload can predict fraudulent behavior. Clients who frequently interact and communicate with auditors motivate auditors to be more thorough and meticulous in conducting audits. However, this effect will not occur if auditors have limited working hours with a large volume of work, resulting in decreased audit productivity and potentially leading to accounting irregularities. This finding also provides the view that when auditors are easily convinced and believe what others say, fraud will be easier to commit, so auditors must have a doubtful attitude towards clients.</em></p> 2025-10-10T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economics Development Research (IJEDR) https://journal.yrpipku.com/index.php/ijedr/article/view/9341 Credit Risk Management Strategy in Clothing Installment Business to Maintain Social Value and Business Sustainability 2025-10-07T12:32:11+00:00 Lelita Febriayu sayalalita08@gmail.com Atika Atika atika@gmail.com Nursantri Yanti nursantri@gmail.com <p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>This study aims to analyze the risk management strategies for non-performing loans (NPLs) in informal clothing instalment businesses in rural areas, focusing on the role of social values and the adaptation of the 5C theory. Using a qualitative embedded case study, research was conducted on a 15-year-old clothing installment enterprise in Padang Langkat Village serving 72 customers from vulnerable households. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, 12 weeks of participant observation, and analysis of instalment records, WhatsApp chats, and collection photos. The results showed ex-ante strategies in the form of customer selection based on social reputation, evaluation of informal payment capacity, and structured manual recording. Ex-post strategies included a familial approach, phased collection, personal visits, and instalment restructuring. Social capital in the form of trust, norms, and social networks played a role in replacing formal collateral and reducing NPLs by up to 6.9%. The conceptual contribution of this research is the social adaptation of the 5C theory, with an emphasis on Character and Conditionfactors, while Collateral is replaced by social security, emphasizing the importance of local cultural context in the sustainability of informal micro-enterprises.</em></p> 2025-10-12T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economics Development Research (IJEDR) https://journal.yrpipku.com/index.php/ijedr/article/view/9187 Adapting Traditional Communication Through Banner Design: The Role of Village Government Media in the Digital Disruption Era 2025-10-12T06:42:36+00:00 I Dewa Putu Pasnadi Putra idewaputupasnadiputra@gmail.com Ni Made Ary Widiastini ary@Gmail.com Komang Krisna Heryanda krisna@gmail.com <p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>Werdhi Bhuwana Village, located in Mengwi District, Badung Regency, serves as an example of a rural community in Badung that continues to rely on conventional media such as banners and billboards as visual communication tools to disseminate information to its residents. The use of billboards in strategic locations—such as in front of the village office, at major intersections, and in other public spaces—remains common and serves as a primary medium for conveying information about village programs and governmental achievements. This phenomenon indicates that, despite the rapid development and dominance of digital media, printed visual media such as banners have not been entirely replaced. This situation calls for concrete and measurable solutions from the Werdhi Bhuwana Village Government. By implementing the solutions proposed in this study, it is expected that banners will not only persist but also improve in effectiveness and relevance as modern communication tools amidst the current digital disruption. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, chosen to provide an in-depth and contextual understanding of the existence and effectiveness of banner (billboard) design utilized by the Werdhi Bhuwana Village Government as an information medium for the community.</em></p> 2025-10-12T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economics Development Research (IJEDR) https://journal.yrpipku.com/index.php/ijedr/article/view/9354 The Influence of Foreign Exchange Reserves, GDP per Capita, Exchange Rate, Degree of Openness, Budget Deficit, and Current Account Balance on Indonesia’s External Debt during the Period 1990–2023 2025-10-04T03:02:46+00:00 Regina Alya Haura haura300103@gmail.com Yuni Prihadi Utomo yuni@Gmail.com <p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>This study aims to examine the influence of Foreign Exchange Reserves, Gross Domestic Product per Capita, Exchange Rate, Degree of Openness, Fiscal Deficit, and Current Account Balance on Indonesia’s External Debt during the period 1990–2023. This study employs a quantitative research approach using time series data. The data analysis technique applied is Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression. The research results indicate that the exchange rate has a significant positive effect on external debt. This suggests that a weakening rupiah leads to an increase in external debt because the repayment burden is dominated by foreign currency. Conversely, the budget deficit and current account balance have a significant negative effect on external debt. This implies that when a fiscal deficit occurs, external financing is required to cover the deficit, which in turn will increase external debt. Meanwhile, Foreign Exchange Reserves, Gross Domestic Product per Capita, and Degree of Openness are found to have no significant effect on External Debt. This indicates that during this period, the three variables did not have a direct role in determining fluctuations in External Debt. Indonesia’s external debt remains a structural issue influenced by the depreciation of the rupiah, fiscal deficits, and a weak current account balance. Dependence on external financing increases the risk of debt burdens, particularly when the rupiah depreciates. The government needs to strengthen exchange rate stability, enhance domestic revenue, and improve the current account balance through export promotion and import control. Debt management should be productive, transparent, and accountable to ensure sustainable economic development and fiscal stability.</em></p> 2025-10-13T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economics Development Research (IJEDR) https://journal.yrpipku.com/index.php/ijedr/article/view/9348 Influencer Marketing and Its Effectiveness in Shaping Consumer Purchase Intentions 2025-10-04T03:03:08+00:00 Tirta Mulyadi tirta@btp.ac.id Eko Wahyu Widayat ekowahyuwidayat01@gmail.com Siti Nurhayati chity217@gmail.com <p><em>Influencer marketing has become one of the most powerful strategies in the digital era for shaping consumer purchase intentions. This article review examines studies published between 2020 and 2025 to explore how influencers affect consumer attitudes, brand perceptions, and purchasing decisions. The review identifies three core drivers of effectiveness: the credibility and authenticity of influencers, the depth of consumer engagement on social media platforms, and the mediating role of brand trust, loyalty, and emotional connection. It also highlights the growing importance of value-driven strategies such as ethical and sustainable marketing in strengthening positive purchase intentions. Moreover, the integration of influencer strategies with interactive tools such as live commerce, affiliate marketing, and content variety-seeking behaviors has shown significant potential in enhancing consumer responses. The findings emphasize the need for brands to align influencer selection and campaign design with evolving consumer expectations. The review concludes that influencer marketing is highly effective in shaping purchasing decisions but calls for further longitudinal and cross-cultural research to understand its long-term impacts and sustainability.</em></p> <p><em>&nbsp;</em></p> 2025-10-14T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Economics Development Research (IJEDR)
