Research aims: This study aims to analyze the Pangandaran Regency Government’s performance accountability strengthening, which took place relatively quickly, and identify performance accountability strengthening plans for the coming period.Design/Methodology/Approach: This research used a qualitative and case study approach to achieve the research objectives. Data collection techniques employed were in-depth interviews and documentation.Research findings: The analysis results showcased that Pangandaran Regency Government’s performance accountability strengthening was dominated by coercive and mimetic isomorphism, but the phenomena move towards normative isomorphism. This study also uncovered that the plan to strengthen performance accountability for the next period formed a specific pattern over time.Theoretical contribution/Originality: This research also provides an academic contribution as a reference regarding performance measurement systems and the institutional isomorphism phenomenon.Practitioner/Policy implication: This research provides a practical contribution to the Pangandaran Regency Government and other local governments that still have professional problems in strengthening performance accountability. Research limitation/Implication: This study has limitations, i.e., in the discussion of the Pangandaran Regency Government’s performance accountability strengthening plan, in which this research had not been accompanied by a review of the Pangandaran Regency Government's Regional Medium Term Development Plan (RPJMD) for 2021-2026. It was because when researchers collected data, the RPJMD was still in preparation.

Research aims: This study aims to determine the financial decisions of the millennial generation by considering the Islamic financial literacy variables, reflected by the financial behavioral, knowledge, and attitude variables, and Islamic branding as a mediating variable.Design/Methodology/Approach: The approach used in this study was empirical. Utilizing questionnaires distributed through various online media, the data were collected. The research samples included the millennial generation in South Sumatra, filtered using a purposive sampling technique. To evaluate the hypotheses, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed. Research findings: The study findings highlighted that Islamic financial literacy directly had a positive and significant impact on the financial decisions of the millennial generation in South Sumatra. Islamic branding could also mediate (partial mediation) the influence of Islamic financial literacy on financial decisions. Theoretical contribution/Originality: This finding can be used as a reference for companies to increase the number of customers and investors, especially among the millennial generation. Specifically, Islamic branding can be recommended as one of the sharia banking business strategies to improve the financial decisions of the millennial generation.Research limitation/Implication: This study was only conducted in South Sumatra, making the result not quite strong in terms of external validity.

Research aims: In the massive emerging development of the Islamic financial industry, the role of the internal audit function is in the spotlight as governance is the main issue of this industry’s sustainability. This study, therefore, aims to reveal the role of the internal audit function of Islamic banks in Indonesia.Design/Methodology/Approach: The study employed secondary data from annual and Good Corporate Governance (GCG) reports from Islamic banks in Indonesia to be analyzed with the qualitative content analysis by Schreier.Research findings: The researchers highlighted that the GCG and annual reports could uncover the role of internal audits in Islamic banks. The scope of an internal audit is divided into three essential activities: preparation of work program plans, implementation, monitoring, and follow-up on findings. In comparison, the authority is to communicate with the board of directors, board of commissioners, and audit committee, including the Sharia Supervisory Board (SSB), regarding sharia compliance.Theoretical contribution/Originality: Sharia compliance ensures the soundness and credibility of the Islamic finance industry. This study identified the role of the internal audit functions of Islamic banks using qualitative content analysis for the first time. Therefore, this study is unique in how the disclosure of internal audit function is presented.Research limitation/Implication: This study was limited in a deeper understanding of the findings as it was based on secondary data analysis. However, the researchers provide vital insights on control conduct of the role played by internal auditors of Islamic banks to satisfy every qualification needed as the role played by internal auditors is vital to pursue GCG principles.

Research aims: While prior study around segment disclosure has mainly focused on firm characteristics, there is little study on whether managerial characteristics are associated with segment disclosure. This study, therefore, aims to examine the effect of managerial ability on the level of segment disclosure.Design/Methodology/Approach: This study used panel data regression with 556 firm-year observations of Indonesian manufacturing firms during 2017-2020. This study employed the checklist based on PSAK 5 (2015 edition) and adopted a content analysis approach. To measure managerial ability, this study utilized the managerial ability score developed by Demerjian, Lev, McVay (2012) for Indonesian firms. Research findings: The results of this study revealed that managerial ability significantly and positively affected the level of segment disclosure. Higher-ability managers also tended to disclose their segment information more extensively.Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study contributes to the managerial ability literature and the disclosure literature (specifically for segment disclosure). This study is also the first to provide empirical evidence about the effect of managerial ability on the level of segment disclosure.Practitioner/Policy implication: This study results can be used by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the Institute of Indonesia Chartered Accountants regarding the effectiveness of management approach implementation in Indonesia. Furthermore, the result of this study suggests that managers need to improve their capabilities to accommodate a dynamic business environment.Research limitation/Implication: This study used content analysis to measure segment disclosure, including subjectivity. Nevertheless, this study only investigated manufacturing firms. Further research may expand the industry sample to get a better understanding.
研究目的:以往对部门信息披露的研究主要集中在企业特征上,而对管理层特征是否与部门信息披露相关的研究较少。因此,本研究旨在探讨管理能力对分部披露水平的影响。设计/方法/方法:本研究使用面板数据回归,对2017-2020年印度尼西亚制造业企业的556家公司进行了年度观察。本研究采用基于PSAK 5(2015版)的检查表,并采用内容分析法。为了衡量管理能力,本研究采用了Demerjian, Lev, McVay(2012)为印尼企业开发的管理能力评分。研究发现:本研究结果显示,管理能力显著正向影响分部披露水平。能力较高的管理者也倾向于更广泛地披露他们的部门信息。理论贡献/独创性:本研究对管理能力文献和披露文献(特别是分部披露文献)有所贡献。本研究也首次提供了管理能力对分部披露水平影响的实证证据。从业者/政策启示:本研究结果可用于印度尼西亚特许会计师协会财务会计准则委员会关于管理方法在印度尼西亚实施的有效性。此外,本研究的结果表明,管理者需要提高他们的能力,以适应一个动态的商业环境。研究局限/启示:本研究使用内容分析法来衡量分部披露,包括主观性。然而,这项研究只调查了制造企业。进一步的研究可能会扩大行业样本以获得更好的理解。

Research aims: This study examines the influence of firm size, firm age, current ratio, and type of audit company on the corporate social responsibility disclosure level and its impact on the financial performance of listed enterprises in Vietnam.Design/Methodology/Approach: Financial data were collected from the annual reports of 109 enterprises listed on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange, Vietnam, from 2016 to 2020. This research employed the Random Effects Model (REM), Fixed Effects Model (FEM), and Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) to deal with the drawbacks of the regression models, as mentioned.Research findings: The findings support the positive influence of firm size, firm age, and the type of auditing firm on the level of CSR information disclosure of listed manufacturing enterprises. Also, the extent of CSR disclosure positively affected financial performance, confirming the positive relationship between CSR disclosure level and financial performance.Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study contributes to governance theory by expanding and combining stakeholder and legitimacy theories with criteria for measuring the level of CSR disclosure in the Vietnamese context. Therefore, the study results are a valuable reference for theorists who tirelessly pursue the CSR topic.Practitioner/Policy implication: This study proposes recommendations for practitioners who should focus on enhancing the level of CSR disclosure to generate more benefits and result in better financial performance. Also, policy implications should be raising the senior managers’ awareness of the level of CSR disclosure, firm size, firm age, and type of audit and establishing a stable legal framework for the level of CSR disclosure in line with international standards and practices.Research limitation/Implication: The sample data were only collected from manufacturing companies listed on Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange, and the analyzed content and measurement of the level of CSR disclosure primely relied on the enterprises’ annual reports.

Research aims: This study aims to investigate the effect of gender, framing, and responsibility on investment decision-making. Design/Methodology/Approach: This experimental study used a subject design of 2 x 2 x 2, in which 81 doctoral students participated. Furthermore, cross-tabulation was employed to analyze and examine the hypotheses.Research findings: The results revealed that positive and negative framing and responsibility levels would affect investment decision-making. This research also uncovered differences in risk preferences in decision-making between men and women. Additionally, both genders had varying preferences in making similar decisions.Theoretical contribution/Originality: Several studies have shown that when information is presented differently, here in after referred to as framing, it significantly influences decisions. However, the decision-making determination is influenced not only by framing but also by other variables. In this study, the framing variable, therefore, was tested jointly with the variables of responsibility and gender differences.

Research aims: This study examines the value relevance of accounting information consisting of earnings information, book values, and operating cash flows after Indonesia uses the full convergence of IFRS Financial Accounting Standards.Design/Methodology/Approach: The value relevance test was conducted using Ohlson's (1995) pricing model and Easton and Harris' (1991) return model. The valuation model test employed two regression equations, i.e., testing the relationship between earnings information and book value with stock prices and then testing the relationship between earnings information, book value, and cash flow with stock prices. In addition, the return model testing was performed to examine the relationship between earnings information and earnings changes with stock returns and the relationship between cash flow and cash flow changes with stock returns. The research sample was 105 manufacturing companies, with a research period from 2016 to 2019.Research findings: The test results with the pricing model approach revealed that earnings and cash flow had value relevance, while book value had no value relevance. This study’s results suggest that earnings and cash flow information are helpful for investors in making investment decisions. Moreover, the test results with the return model approach also uncovered those earnings, changes in earnings, and changes in operating cash flows had value relevance while operating cash flows, on the other hand, had no value relevance.Theoretical contribution/Originality: The utilized two models complement each other, and this study provides empirical evidence for standard setters who can renew beliefs about how much accounting information is reflected in stock prices in Indonesia, especially the manufacturing sector, after the full convergence of IFRS Financial Accounting Standards is applied.
研究目的:本研究考察了印度尼西亚采用IFRS财务会计准则完全趋同后,由收益信息、账面价值和经营现金流组成的会计信息的价值相关性。设计/方法/方法:价值相关性检验采用Ohlson(1995)定价模型和Easton and Harris(1991)收益模型进行。估值模型检验采用了两个回归方程,即检验收益信息和账面价值与股价的关系,然后检验收益信息、账面价值和现金流与股价的相关性。此外,还进行了收益模型检验,检验了收益信息与收益变化与股票收益的关系,以及现金流与现金流变化与股票回报的关系。研究样本为105家制造业公司,研究期为2016年至2019年。研究结果:定价模型方法的测试结果显示,收益和现金流具有价值相关性,而账面价值不具有价值相关性。这项研究的结果表明,收益和现金流信息有助于投资者做出投资决策。此外,收益模型方法的测试结果还发现,收益、收益变化和经营现金流变化具有价值相关性,而经营现金流则没有价值相关性。理论贡献/独创性:所使用的两个模型相辅相成,本研究为标准制定者提供了经验证据,他们可以在应用《国际财务报告准则》财务会计准则完全趋同后,重新相信印尼的股价,特别是制造业的股价反映了多少会计信息。

The valuation model test employed two regression equations, i.e., testing the relationship between earnings information and book value with stock prices and then testing the relationship between earnings information, book value, and cash flow with stock prices. In addition, the return model testing was performed to examine the relationship between earnings information and earnings changes with stock returns and the relationship between cash flow and cash flow changes with stock returns.

Research aims: This study investigates how corruption increased in the Indonesian village governments following village governance reform by ratifying the New Village Law of 2014. Also, the current research identifies gaps that trigger corruption.Design/Methodology/Approach: Three theories, i.e., fraud hexagon, managerial hegemony, and cultural dimensions, were employed as points of view. Due to investigation purposes, a qualitative approach is considered the most suitable method for this study. Hence, the interview was employed as data collection. The data were then analyzed using a deductive thematic analysis approach.Research findings: The results showcased that aside from personal interests, corruption occurred to crowd campaign financing for the head village election by the incumbent. The corruption types could be the embezzlement of village funds and village-owned enterprise funds and the establishment of ghost (fictitious) villages. The results also identified some factors triggering graft corruption scandals, namely poor governance practices, including accountability, transparency, and valid administration; the excessive authority of actors (village heads) in holding and managing village money; lack of participation mechanism.Practical and Theoretical contribution/Originality: To tackle corruption in the village government, strengthening proper good governance practices must be tightened, not merely as ritual or ceremonial. In addition, discussions of three theoretical perspectives, fraud, managerial hegemony, and culture, are presented in this paper.
