2025-04-21T02:15:48SE Asia Daylight Time

Women are often stereotypically perceived as the weaker sex, relegated primarily to the role of housewives. However, in reality, many married women successfully manage their own businesses while fulfilling their domestic duties. This study aims to explore the capacity of married women to balance their roles as housewives and entrepreneurs, focusing on aspects such as business challenges, capital acquisition, training, and business development. The research employs a qualitative approach, gathering data through interviews with seven married women who operate businesses in Medan City. These businesses are predominantly micro-enterprises, manageable from home, which allows the women to maintain their household responsibilities. The study reveals that for many of these women, business management is not merely a secondary role but, in some cases, becomes their primary occupation, making them key contributors to the family’s economic stability. The results indicate that the informants generally finance their businesses using personal capital, with only one informant having previously utilized a loan from the BRI KUR program. Although none of the informants have received formal business training, they expressed a strong willingness to participate in training programs if the opportunity arose. Additionally, they are keen to expand their businesses through strategies such as product diversification and broader distribution channels. This study concludes that married women can successfully juggle the dual roles of housewives and entrepreneurs, whether as a supplementary or primary occupation.

This study aims to rigorously examine and analyze the partial and simultaneous effects of external pressure, ineffective monitoring, and auditor changes on financial statement fraud. Employing a quantitative research approach, the study focuses on mining sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2023 period. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, resulting in 30 companies that met the predefined research criteria. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to determine the influence of each independent variable on the dependent variable. The empirical findings reveal that, individually, external pressure, ineffective monitoring, and changes in auditor do not exert a statistically significant effect on financial statement fraud. Furthermore, the results of the simultaneous test demonstrate that these three variables, when considered collectively, also do not have a significant impact on the occurrence of financial fraud. These results suggest that the examined factors are not principal determinants in driving fraudulent financial reporting within the mining sub-sector during the specified period.
