Using a purposive sampling method, 50 companies were selected based on specific criteria, including the availability of audited financial reports and sustainability disclosures. Corporate value was measured using the Price to Book Value (PBV) ratio, while green accounting practices were assessed through environmental cost disclosures. Company size and profitability were included as control variables to account for their influence on corporate value.</em></p> <p><em>The findings reveal a significant positive relationship between green accounting practices and corporate value, highlighting the financial benefits of adopting sustainability-focused accounting. These results support legitimacy and stakeholder theories, demonstrating that transparent environmental disclosures enhance societal legitimacy and strengthen stakeholder trust, which in turn boosts market valuations. Larger and more profitable firms were better positioned to implement green accounting, benefiting from increased market confidence and operational efficiency. This study extends prior research by focusing on an emerging market context, emphasizing the growing importance of green accounting in Indonesia’s manufacturing sector. The results suggest that market forces and stakeholder pressures drive the adoption of green accounting practices, even in environments with less stringent regulatory frameworks. The study provides practical implications for policymakers to promote stricter environmental reporting standards and for corporate managers to leverage green accounting as a strategic tool for enhancing corporate value and long-term sustainability. Despite its contributions, the study is limited by its reliance on secondary data and focus on a single industry. Future research could explore cross-industry comparisons and qualitative insights to deepen the understanding of green accounting’s broader impact. This research underscores the strategic importance of integrating environmental considerations into corporate reporting for achieving financial and sustainability objectives.</em></p> 2024-10-31T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Sustainability Accounting Journal https://e-journal.upr.ac.id/index.php/SAJ/article/view/17137 Optimization of MSMEs Revenue: The Key Role of Internal Control, Accounting Records, and Sustainability Performance in the Digital Era 2024-11-25T07:28:13+00:00 Siara Zazkia Juliana Putri siarazazkia@gmail.com Nur Aisah nuraisah3245@gmail.com Norlela norlelasdy@gmail.com Rosiyana Hanida Hanidarosiyana@gmail.com Hilmi Satria Himawan himawanhs@iain-palangkaraya.ac.id <p><em>According to the Ministry of Cooperatives and SMEs, based on data as of May 2022 there are around 65 million MSMEs in Indonesia. Palangka Raya City is one of the cities in Central Kalimantan Province whose people generally use MSMEs as one of the main sources of income to meet their living needs. One of them is Photocopy JB, whose business is selling decorative flowers, children's toys and women's fashion equipment. In running its business, Photocopy JB experienced several obstacles, namely market competition, implementation of internal controls, and not yet implementing an accounting recording system. The research method used is qualitative methods. Data processing in this research uses descriptive analysis methods. The research results show that Photocopy JB has not implemented good internal control because there are several internal control criteria that have not been met. Accounting records also do not apply the cash basis and accrual basis as well as SAK EMKM, while the use of social media as a promotional medium only uses Facebook which is promoted and only decorative flowers. The findings from this research are that the implementation of good internal controls can help MSMEs to prevent fraud, ensuring that financial transactions are carried out in accordance with applicable policies and procedures. Implementing adequate accounting records can help MSMEs to measure business performance, make business decisions, and reduce the risk of fraud. The use of social media in product promotion can help MSMEs to reach a wider target market and increase sales.</em></p> 2024-10-31T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Sustainability Accounting Journal
