ABSTRACT
Supply chain risks is one of the factors disrupting the organizational performance in terms of economic
performance and environmental performance. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of supply
chain risks towards economic and environmental performance on Malaysian manufacturing sector those
obtain ISO 14001 certification. A total of 125 managers have participated in this study. Data was analysed
using PLS-SEM. By using exploratory factor analysis (EFA), supply chain risks were classified into five
supply chain risks constructs. The finding shows that demand risks and environmental risk has significant and
negative effect on economic performance. Manufacturing risk, supply risk and environmental risk has
significant and negative effect on environmental performance, meanwhile information risk has no significant
relationship towards both economic and environmental performance. The finding of this study can give
information to the researchers and academicians about which types of supply chain risks affect economic
performance and environmental performance. The proposed conceptual framework also would help the
academicians and practitioners to find the best strategy to manage the supply chain risks. To reduce the effect
of economic performance and environmental performance, future research can introduce the role of strategy
or practices to mitigate the supply chain risks.

manufacturing companies in Indonesia Stock Exchange (Bursa Efek Indonesia) in 2014, 2015, and 2016. Our
research uses panel data analysis, and as the hypothesis test using E-VIEW. Results of our research show that
only financial distress influences firm value. However, all independent variables simultaneously influence
firm value. This finding also indicate that financial distress is more important than the other earning
manipulation and strength of financial position in determining firm value.

ABSTRACT
The purpose conceptual paper researcher wants to explore the psychological theory of prospect (Kahneman
& Tversky, 1979), on a new field related to the right investment decisions in Islamic investors. Islam views
all human actions in daily life, as an investment that will get a return. The investment results obtained in Islam
are in accordance with the amount of resources sacrificed The behavior of a Muslim investor should not be
the same as conventional investor behavior, as Muslim investors when investing in saving are not only profit-
oriented to be gained in the future but also pay attention to the element of ignorance. The Islamic principle of
investment activity encompasses at least five aspects, namely: not seeking sustenance on the things that are
haram, not tyranny and not destined, justice in the distribution of income, and no element of usury, maysir
(gambling, speculation), and gharar (uncertainty) The problem to be studied by the researcher is a social and
dynamic problem because it uses) with sequential explanatory design strategy.

ABSTRACT
Retail financing products is one of the main banking facilities offered by conventional and Islamic banks in
Malaysia. It consists of four types of products which are home financing, personal financing, vehicle financing
and credit card. Almost all banks which offer Islamic banking products and services in Malaysia today are
using tawarruq contract widely in their retail financing products. This scenario is quite alarming since the
banks will rely too much on tawarruq contract and neglect the other Shariah contracts. Thus, this study intends
to analyse the preference of using tawarruq contract as compared to other contracts for retail financing
products in the Islamic banks as well as the conventional banks which are offering Islamic banking products
and services. This study also focuses on the opinion of the Muslim jurists towards the tawarruq’s ruling which
has become the basis for the tawarruq’s preference in the banks. This study adopted the qualitative method
where semi-structured interviews are conducted with four Shariah experts from four banks who involved
directly with the Shariah Department. This study found that two full-fledged Islamic banks preferred to use
the tawarruq contract while two Islamic subsidiary banks did not prefer to use tawarruq contract based on
their own reasons and judgement. It is recommended that the full-fledged Islamic banks which are using only
tawarruq contract to apply the contract temporarily. At the same time, the banks should try to invent a new
mechanism in order to limit the usage of tawarruq contract to create healthy growth of Islamic banking
industry.

The Islamic Finance Compiliant continues to receive special attention because of their enormous potential.
The increasing number of requests for Shari'ah financial products in the global market is an indication that
Syari'ah Finance Compliance is not only in attractive by Muslims but has become part of the solution of
international investors. Reviewing the formation of counterparts based on Islamic principles provides an
indication that products based on shari'ah compliant can continuously reduce risk. By specifically entering
syari'ah shares as part of the portfolio, it will increase the value of the portfolio optimization. Therefore this
study intends to analyze the level of compliance of shari'ah stocks which is then followed by a series of
treatments namely weighting, optimization with the Karush Kuhn Tucker method (KKT) and Mean-variance
test. The portfolio with the composition of syari’ah stocks is believed to result in a better value of portfolio
performance tests.

ABSTRACT
Audit quality is an issue that has often been investigated since the previous 20 decades (Knechel et al., 2013),
especially after many major accounting scandals occurred (Duff, 2004). Various factors have been identified
with various results and conclusions. Among the latest factors related to audit quality issues are the use or
adoption of computer-based audit techniques (TABK) (Banker, Chang, & Kao, 2002; Bierstaker, Burnaby, &
Thibodeau, 2001; Dowling & Leech, 2014; C.-W. Lin & Wang, 2011; Widuri et al., 2016; Zhao et al., 2004);
implementation of a risk-based audit (RBA / Risk Based Audit) approach (Bell, Peecher, & Solomon, 2005;
Bowlin, 2011; Flint, Fraser, & Hatherly, 2008; Knechel, 2007; Lovaas, 2009). Regulators in various countries
are different in addressing the above issues. USA is among countries that require the use of TABK in the audit
process. In contrast to Indonesia, as one of the developing countries, it only encourages auditors to apply
TABK. Whereas related to risk-based audits are more related to the expansion of the scope of auditor
assignments related to fraud detection. In fact, this has become an international issue, where the IAASB-IFAC
released Audit Standard 240 which was also adopted by the Indonesian Institute of Certified Public
Accountants in SA 240 regarding the auditor's responsibility for fraud detection. This study aims to explain
the effect of TABK and RBA adoption on the quality of audits conducted by auditors of the Supreme Audit
Agency in Indonesia. The primary data obtained from the survey is used to explain the purpose of this research.
This research data is processed using the Structural Equation Model (SEM). This study found that the adoption
of computer-assisted audit techniques and a risk-based audit approach by BPK auditors had not had a
significant effect on audit quality.

ABSTRACT
The NPOs have received increasing demand of services from the society which caused them to operate in a
highly competitive environment due to the increasing competition in securing resources, less number of
volunteers and limited government funding. There are suggestions that the existence of intellectual capital can
lead the NPO to become a leader in the social network. Intellectual capital can be a new lens for the NPO in
increasing and sustaining its performance. A review of the literature has shown that most studies in the
intellectual capital literature have focused on profit organisations, leaving the examination on the link between
intellectual capital and NPOs largely unexplored. Thus, this study aims to examine the relationship between
intellectual capital and the performance of the Malaysian NPOs. Specifically, this study examines three
components of intellectual capital namely, human capital, organisational capital and relational capital. This
study applied the quantitative approach using questionnaire survey. Sixty seven representatives from various
NPOs in Malaysia participated in this study. The results of this study demonstrate that intellectual capital
provides a significant effect on the performance of the NPOs. The results indicate that organisational capital
and relational capital significantly influence the performance of the NPOs whereas human capital does not
stimulus the performance of the NPOs. Organisational Capital which includes organisation routines, structure,
values and practices proves to increase NPO’s performance. Relational capital focuses on both internal and
external relationship and communication. When there is an effective internal communication, it leads to a
satisfaction and successful of external communication.

biological asset disclosure as the intervening variable. The problem which arises is on the decrease of
agriculture company performance because of inaccurate financial report so that the information users are less
interested to agriculture companies. Hence, it impacts on the decrease of the company performance.

to measurement, recognition and disclosure of biological assets which is Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (Pernyataan Standar Akuntansi Keuangan/ PSAK) 69. PSAK 69 was published in early 2015 which
was an exposure draft and generally used in financial report in 2018. The samples used in this study were
agriculture companies listed on Indonesia Stock Exchange for 2015-2017 period. The sampling method used
was purposive sampling. The analysis instrument was multiple linier regression and used path analysis in
measuring the intervening variable. The results of the study showed that biological asset intensity affected the
biological asset disclosure, biological asset intensity did not affect directly towards company performance and
biological asset disclosure variable was able to intervene the correlation between biological asset intensity
towards company performance. This study helps standard board to see the enhancement of biological asset
disclosure in Indonesia and to develop PSAK 69.

1,2,3Arshad Ayub Graduate Business School, Universiti Teknologi MARA,Malaysia
ABSTRACT
The percentage of non-performing loans (NPL) and non-performance financing (NPF) in Malaysia
commercial banks is under control and does not increase in its percentage since the year 2014 to 2016. These
scenarios are the result of the stringent credit management procedures in the commercial banks which if not
properly followed could affect banks’ profitability and liquidity. However, there are critics by the public on
how Islamic banks normally tend to punish their customers who are the real traders or businessman without
fixed monthly income when they slightly late in paying their periodical payment for the bank’s facility or
financing. Islamic bank is supposed to help the customer in order for it to achieve maqasid al-shariah
(objectives of Shariah). Thus, this study intends to compare the credit management’s procedure in one of the
full-fledged Islamic banks and one of the conventional banks which also offer Islamic banking window. This
study also aims to identify the achievement of maqasid al-shariah through the procedures of credit
management in the two banks. This study adopted the qualitative methodology where semi-structured
interviews are conducted with 2 bankers from one of the full-fledged Islamic banks and one of the
conventional banks which also offer Islamic banking window. Results from this study indicated that each
banks has their own strategies and procedures with regard to credit management. Their credit management
plans were structured to help customers to secure their loans, financing and assets as well as protecting from
them from bankruptcy and insolvency which basically comply with maqasid al-shariah. From this study, it is
recommended for commercial banks to apply a strict approval process for loan and financing as well as a strict
credit monitoring system to avoid NPL and NPF.

Organizational Behaviour, Culture, Information Technology and Activity-
Based Costing Implementation Success
Aliza Ramli1 and Nur Fatin Rosli2
1&2Faculty of Accountancy, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Malaysia
ABSTRACT
Rapid technological changes have caused the traditional costing system to be inappropriate for companies
especially those that undertake mass production. The traditional costing system could hardly reflect the true
cause and effect relationship between indirect costs and individual products. Using a contemporary
management accounting technique i.e. Activity-Based Costing (ABC), managers could address issues
concerning cost allocation and product cost computation which can then enable them to make better decisions
on pricing, product line, customer market, and capital expenditure. Despite ABC’s numerous benefits, the
implementation of the technique is still low in Malaysia. Studies on ABC in the local context are limited and
which tend to confine to certain contextual variables. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the current state
of implementation success of ABC and its influential factors consisting of organizational behaviour, culture
and information technology in the manufacturing industry in Malaysia. Using the survey method,
questionnaires were distributed via different modes to manufacturing companies registered with the Malaysian
Manufacturer Association in which 23.2% usable response rate was obtained. The results revealed ABC
implementation is still at the infancy state and its implementation success was significantly influenced by
organizational behaviour and information technology. The findings put forth to managers the important factors
to consider in ensuring ABC implementation success, which in turn can enhance firm performance.

Limited Funding: Challenges and Impact on Malaysian Non-Government
Organisations (NGOs)

ABSTRACT
Non-government organisation (NGO) is the third largest sector in the world primarily active in promoting
welfare activities to people in need. NGOs mainly depend on funding for their operations. Nevertheless, the
funding becomes limited due to economic volatility, and it will affect the financial viability of donors, since
the funding largely comes from the donors. Additionally, NGOs must compete with the limited funding due
to the large number of NGOs accordingly. Considering on these challenges, it will affect their operations and
the activities of the NGOs may be dissolved. On the other hand, society, government agencies and private
sectors are also distracted. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the challenges of Malaysian NGOs and the
effect of NGO to the society, government agencies and private sectors with its significance. However, due to
the limited funding, NGOs are unable to run the activities very well. Consequently, it will affect to the NGOs
operations, societies, government agencies and private sectors entirely. In this view therefore, the critical
success factors (CSFs) of funding has been suggested to sustain the existing funding and eventually NGOs

ABSTRACT
Globalisation and the marketing of medical services has resulted in the need for medical tourism. The purpose
of this research is to examine international tourists’ behavioural intention and its influent factors. The research
framework is based on protection motivation theory (PMT) extended with maladaptive coping and adaptive
coping. A sample of 501 data was collected from international tourists in Malaysia. Results shown a good
support for the application of extended PMT model with higher predictive power of a person’s protection
motivation on health coping but lower on health threats towards behavioural intentions. Individual concerns
(perceived vulnerability) played a more prominent role when predicting maladaptive coping of behavioural
intention, while adaptive coping (response efficacy) played a somehow more prominent role when predicting
behavioural intention. Hence, this proposed model suggesting PMT can be used to explain and predict
international tourists’ behavioural intention on medical tourism. Implications for research and practice are
provided.

Since 2015, the government has fully supported the creative economy in Indonesia by estabilishing Badan
Ekonomi Kreatif (Bekraf) which aims to improve the growth of Indonesian economy. Creative economy is an
economic activity which is related to creativity and has cultural and social impact. Creative economy is also
defined as an activity that has a potential to generate income, employment and exports, where these potentials
can create the creative industry activities. Now days, Creative industry has an important role to support the
revolution of industry 4.0. Creative industry in Indonesia has several obstacles that can hinder the growth of
the creative industry. One of them is the limited funding, especially in the Application & Game Development
subsector. To overcome these constraints, it can be overcome by knowing the funding indicators as funding
parameter valuation that refers to previous study, so this study will analyze the administrative and
loan/credit/funding indicators as variables in this study, to find which indicator that can be used as parameters
for the creative industries start-up funding in Indonesia subsector of Application & Game Development. This
study is based on an explorative study, qualitative approach and semi-structure interview with the investors
who were be a speaker and pitching judge at the Go-Startup Indonesia event which was held by Bekraf in Bandung. This study also use triangulation method to reduce subjectivity and testing the validity and reliability
of the study findings. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that investors look more from the
owner/founder side, such as owner/founder’s profile and individual characteristic, while the loan repayment
rate is not too much noticed. So that administrative indicators are more dominant and can be used as a
parameter of valuation in start-up funding of creative industries in Indonesia.

ABSTRACT
Many art galleries around the worlds are public sector institutions which serve as a museums of art collections.
Beside preserving the heritage assets, many art galleries also have mission for art education to the public.
Some of art galleries display art paintings and sculptures worth millions of dollars, yet the absence of
international accounting standard for art collections creates variations of the accounting for art collections
across the globe. The study surveys the financial reports top 100 galleries in the world and investigate the
difference of accounting policies applied by art galleries across countries. The study also conducted deep
interviews with management of national galleries in Indonesia and Singapore to compare the institutional
arrangements and the accounting policies of these two institutions. The result of the survey revealed that
galleries in the US mostly do not include their art collections in the balance sheet, while galleries in UK and
Australia include them in their balance sheets using both fair value method and cost method to account their
art collections. The regression analysis finds that the use of fair value, the number of art collections and the
growth of visitors have significant influence to the company's operating cost. The comparative case studies of
national galleries in Indonesia and Singapore show different institutional arrangements between these two
institutions where Singapore gallery are private independent institutions while Indonesian gallery is just a cost
center of Ministry of Educations and Culture. The institutional arrangement of Indonesian gallery has put
many constraints for the management to develop the gallery. Both institutions do not include their art
collections in their financial reports, however both institutions agree the importance of fair value
measurements of their art collections and conduct the assessment on a regular basis. This study has improved
our understanding on the institutional arrangement and the accounting practices of public service institutions,
especially on art galleries which are lacking of international accounting standard.

ABSTRACT
Non-governmental Organisations (NGOs) across the globe are going through serious debate among the public,
practitioners and academicians on the presence of NGOs. This thus leads to the need to gauge the
accountability and impact of NGOs – Do the activities conducted by NGOs positively impact the communities
that they served? Funders starting to question the accountability of NGOs as there are very limited reporting
provided by NGOs. In Malaysia, there are a huge number of NGOs registered under the Registry of Societies
(ROS). Among the NGOs are faith-based NGOs. This paper attempts to examine the reporting mechanism
used by Pertubuhan IKRAM Malaysia in ensuring it to be accountable by portraying that their activities had
impact on the communities. Through interview and content analysis of its annual report, it was found that
IKRAM has done beyond the regulators’ requirement by including a section for social impact report to portray
its accountability from the Islamic perspective. This section of reporting benefits stakeholders, who are users
of financial information, especially donors and funders, to understand the flow of funds and the contributions
of IKRAM to the society.

ABSTRACT
Responding to the issue of value relevance decrement, the Indonesian Institute of Accountants (IAI) issued a
decision to convergence PSAK (Indonesia’s Statement of Financial Accounting Standards) with IFRS
(International Financial Reporting Standards) gradually starting January 1st, 2012. IFRS claimed to be
beneficial for improving the quality of financial statement information because the use of fair value can better
reflect the company's economic conditions. This study aims to explore the quality of accounting information
after the convergence of IFRS in Indonesia by knowing, analyzing, and comparing the value relevance of
companies' financial statements listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in stage I (2012 - 2013), stage II (2014
- 2015), and stage III (2016 - 2017). The higher stages are indicated by the increasing number of PSAK
(revised and new) based on IAS/IFRS and the smaller gap between applicable PSAK and IFRS. High value
relevance is indicated by the existence of a strong relationship between stock prices and earnings also the book
value of equity, because both accounting information reflects the economic conditions of the company. The
book value of equity represents the statement of financial position and the earnings value represents the income

ABSTRACT
The main objective of a firm is to optimize its shareholders’ welfare and value. Tax avoidance behavior may
influence the firm’s value. Study regarding the relationship between tax avoidance, tax risk and firm’s value
is quite limited especially in Indonesia. Indonesia tax authority experienced tax avoidance cases. The dispute
between tax payers and tax office is not only occurred during the audit, but also showed in tax court. This
Study tried to investigate the relationship among those three variables. Next, the study use all listed companies
in Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) except several sectors: finance, property & real estate, and construction.
The data is taken from IDX for five years (2013 – 2017). Furthermore, the firm’s value is measured using
Tobin’s Q and price to book value (PBV). We use long-run cash ETR and long-run GAAP ETR to measure
tax avoidance. Lastly, to measure the tax risk, we used deviation of a-five years cash ETR and a-five years
GAAP ETR. Using panel data analysis, and several control variables (return on assets, ROA volatility, firm
size, capital expenditure, leverage, growth, and cash flow) we identified several findings. Tax avoidance
significantly influence the firms’ value. Also the tax risk influence the firms’ value.

ABSTRACT
This study aims to examine the factors influencing accounting students to become accountants. Specifically,
this study examines the influence of three factors namely, personal attributes, persons prompted career path
and career exposure on students’ intention to become accountants. Using questionnaire survey on 330 first
and final year accounting students of a public university in Malaysia, the result shows that personal attributes
and career exposure significantly influence the students’ intention to become accountants. However, the result
of this study shows that persons prompted career path is not a significant factor to influencing their intention
to become accountants. The findings in this study implicate that students’ interest in accounting plays a
significant role in their preference to be in the accounting profession. Therefore, educators in the universities
need to play an important role in nurturing the students’ interest to become accountants. This can be done by
implementing creative teaching and learning environment to gain students’ interest and ensuring that the
accounting knowledge can be delivered effectively.
