Muhammad Celvin Hamid — 2024-10-11

The Marshall-Lerner Condition is a theory that a trade balance deficit can be eliminated through currency depreciation, if in the long term the absolute number of long-term export and import demand elasticities is greater than one. Initially, exchange rate depreciation will have a negative impact on trade through two methods, namely changes in volume and changes in value. This study aims to test whether the Marshall-Lerner Condition fulfilled in Indonesia's bilateral trade balance with the five largest trading partners using the Ordinary Least Squares method and in the observation period 2010.1-2022.12. The results of the Marshall-Lerner Condition study that one of Indonesia's five largest trading partners, namely China, the Marshall-Lerner Condition is met.

Analysis of the Effect of Basic Infrastructure and Human Resources on Gross Regional Domestic Product in Indonesia in 2017-2021

M. Razaka Fitrahmayudi — 2024-10-22

Indonesia, an archipelago with a diverse and growing population of 278.69 million as of mid-2023, faces both advantages and challenges in its pursuit of becoming a developed country. The key challenge lies in the unequal distribution of infrastructure development, especially in remote areas. Economic growth, driven by increased goods and services, is closely tied to infrastructure such as roads, electricity, and water distribution. This study analyzes the impact of these infrastructural elements and labor force participation on economic growth, measured by Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), across 34 provinces from 2017 to 2021. Using panel data regression, the results reveal that road length, electricity distribution, and clean water distribution have significant positive effects on GRDP. However, labor force participation shows an insignificant impact. Together, these variables explain 57% of GRDP growth. The findings highlight the critical role of infrastructure in economic development, with provinces like Jakarta leading the growth while regions like North Maluku lag behind. Improving infrastructure and addressing regional disparities are essential to enhancing Indonesia’s overall economic performance.

Dedy Surya Winata — 2024-10-29

BUMN, as a state-owned company, aims to gain profit and provide services and benefits to the community. However, BUMN governance has been in the spotlight due to the rampant corruption cases, such as those that occurred in Jiwasraya and Asabri. Data from the KPK shows that between 2017 and 2023, there were 143 corruption cases in BUMN/BUMD. This study aims to examine and analyze the influence of internal audit practices and organizational commitment on the effectiveness of internal control and fraud prevention in BUMN. The research method uses associative causal with a quantitative approach. Data analysis was carried out using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with the Smart PLS application. The research instrument used a questionnaire with respondents of the Audit Board of Indonesia (BPK) who conducted audits of BUMN, so that it is expected to provide more independent answers for measuring each variable. The results of the study indicate that internal audit practices have a significant positive effect on the effectiveness of internal control and fraud prevention. Organizational commitment also has a significant positive effect on the effectiveness of internal control, but does not have a significant effect on fraud prevention. Internal control effectiveness does not mediate the effect of internal audit practices or organizational commitment on fraud prevention. The implications of the research results are the importance of improving internal audit practices and organizational commitment as an effort to improve the effectiveness of internal control, although the implementation of fraud prevention requires an additional integrated approach.
