The study provides empirical evidence supporting the theory that a strategic blend of HRM and SMM is instrumental in enhancing financial performance. Efficient HRM practices, which improve productivity and innovation, coupled with effective SMM strategies that strengthen market positioning and revenue flows, are shown to be significant drivers of sustainable financial growth. The managerial implications of this integration are profound, underscoring the need for business leaders to consider investments in human resource development and strategic marketing as pivotal to the company's long-term success rather than as mere departmental functions. Through a quantitative analysis using SMARTPLS with a sample size of 150, the research contributes to management literature by highlighting the often-overlooked functional interconnections between HRM and SMM divisions. It challenges the conventional compartmentalization of these functions and advocates for a more integrative approach within corporate strategies. The findings indicate that companies embracing this integrated approach tend to report superior financial performance. This study addresses a gap in existing literature by demonstrating the collective impact of HRM and SMM on CFP across various industries, organization sizes, and cultural contexts, emphasizing the strategic amalgamation of these practices as a source of competitive advantage and financial enhancement.</p> Guasmin, Rajindra Rajindra Copyright (c) 2024 Guasmin, Rajindra Rajindra https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://jurnal.feb-umi.id/index.php/ATESTASI/article/view/756 Sun, 18 Feb 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Optimizing Auditor Performance : Examining the Mediating Role of Communication in the Work Environment https://jurnal.feb-umi.id/index.php/ATESTASI/article/view/766 <p>This research has high significance in the context of operational efficiency and effectiveness of the Riau Province Inspectorate Office as well as improving employee performance.

Utilizing a quantitative approach, the study adopts regression analysis through SMARTPLS to analyze the data. Primary data for the variables - impact of economic stimulus policy, solvency risk of companies, and fiscal policy - were gathered, along with secondary data over a five-year period pertaining to the financial performance variable. The dataset was derived from 26 manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI). The findings reveal that both economic stimulus policy and fiscal policy exert a positive and significant effect on financial performance. In contrast, the solvency risk of companies does not exhibit a significant impact. This outcome suggests that while macroeconomic policies facilitate an environment conducive to financial growth, the internal risk management and financial structuring of a company play a critical role in leveraging these external benefits. The study underscores the importance of strategic internal management and effective risk mitigation practices in enhancing and sustaining financial performance amidst varying economic policies.</p> Ambar Tri Hapsari Copyright (c) 2024 Ambar Tri Hapsari https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://jurnal.feb-umi.id/index.php/ATESTASI/article/view/769 Thu, 07 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Service Quality and Organizational Culture on Taxpayer Compliance https://jurnal.feb-umi.id/index.php/ATESTASI/article/view/771 <p>This research analyzes the influence of service quality and organizational culture on taxpayer compliance.

It aims to elucidate the motives, mechanisms, and consequences of earning management, considering diverse industry contexts and regulatory environments. The study utilizes a comprehensive review of empirical studies, industry-specific research, and regulatory interventions to uncover nuanced patterns and emerging trends in earning management behavior. Findings indicate that earning management practices vary across industries, with regulated sectors exhibiting higher manipulation levels. Competitive dynamics also influence earning management decisions, with firms in fiercely competitive environments more likely to engage in aggressive tactics.

In practice, the sustainability impact represents the value that shows how social enterprises establish strategies, conduct daily operations, and build partnerships with stakeholders. Therefore, this study aims to explore and understand the meaning of "impact" from the perspective of social enterprise actors. The research data consists of observations and interviews with social enterprise business actors, as well as documentation related to the research theme. Data analysis was conducted using a case study approach, which involves data reduction, coding, and theme determination, followed by interpreting the analysis results to address the research problem. The findings illustrate that the impact for social enterprises can be interpreted as creating positive changes in the lives of people in society. This is ingrained from the strategy setting to daily operations because success for a social enterprise is not only measured by profit but also by the social impact generated. Additionally, a social enterprise is also considered a green business when impact thinking correlates with sustainability principles.</p> Anisa Kusumawardani, Fibriyani Nur Khairin, Yoremia Lestari Ginting Copyright (c) 2024 Anisa Kusumawardani, Fibriyani Nur Khairin, Yoremia Lestari Ginting https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://jurnal.feb-umi.id/index.php/ATESTASI/article/view/775 Sat, 30 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Examining the Impacts of Human Resource Management HRM-Financial Management Alignment: A Qualitative Review of Accounting Literature https://jurnal.feb-umi.id/index.php/ATESTASI/article/view/802 <p>This qualitative research explores the implications of aligning Human Resource Management (HRM) practices with Financial Management objectives in organizations.

Production costs affect the level of profitability of the company. The purpose of this study is to exploit the extent to which avoidable costs can be reduced in determining production costs. By making some adjustments to production costs such as making efficiency, the production amount of the company's profitability can increase compared to the production costs that are still high. The research was conducted in several small industry-based refillable drinking water industries in the Moncong Loe Region. The analysis technique used is descriptive quantitative with cost accounting calculation method. The results showed that there is a possibility of avoiding some production costs of the refill drinking water industry. Because ineffective costs can be reduced. Based on the evaluation, it can be seen that the production costs applied so far are still high by the indirect raw material costs used. Indirect labor costs also exist but are still seen as costs for routine work. Thus, production costs can be controlled by avoiding some costs so that the selling price can be reduced.</p> Rustan Rustan, Muh. Rum, Hamkah Hamkah Copyright (c) 2024 Rustan Rustan, Muh.
