Residents are all people who live in the geographical area of Indonesia for six months or more and or those who have been domiciled for less than six months but aim to settle. Population growth is caused by two components, namely: fertility and mortality. To find out how big the relationship between the  population and the number of births and deaths in each sub-district of Semarang, must observed in several specific time periods and places at once. So in this study, the panel data regression method was used. In panel data regression testing, the results show that the panel data regression model formed to determine the factors that influence the level of population is the random effect model. In this model all assumptions are fulfilled. Significant factors affecting population are number of births. Births and deaths affect the population of 99.95% and the remaining 0.05% is influenced by other factors not examined Penduduk adalah semua orang yang berdomisili di wilayah geografis Indonesia selama enam bulan atau lebih dan atau mereka yang berdomisili kurang dari enam bulan tetapi bertujuan menetap. Pertumbuhan penduduk diakibatkan oleh dua komponen yaitu: fertilitas dan mortalitas. Untuk mengetahui seberapa besar keterkaitan antara jumlah penduduk dengan jumlah kelahiran dan kematian di setiap kecamataan Kota Semarang, harus diamati dalam beberapa periode waktu tertentu dan beberapa tempat secara bersamaan. Sehingga dalam penelitian ini digunakan metode regresi data panel. Dalam pengujian regresi data panel, didapatkan hasil bahwa Model regresi data panel yang terbentuk untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi tingkat jumlah penduduk adalah model random Effect. Pada model tersebut semua asumsi terpenuhi. Faktor yang signifikan mempengaruhi jumlah penduduk adalah jumlah kelahiran. Kelahiran dan kematian mempengaruhi jumlah penduduk sebesar 99.95% dan sisanya sebesar 0.05% dipengaruhi oleh faktor- faktor lain yang tidak di teliti.

Subject: The financial management of companies is examined in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, the relationship between their capital structure and risk changes during the pandemic is scrutinised. The purpose of the article: To determine how companies’ total, systematic and idiosyncratic risks changed during the COVID-19 pandemic depending on their capital structure based on a sample of organisations listed at the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Methodology: The study involves the use of a panel data regression model. Results of the research: The COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on the risk of overleveraged companies and underleveraged ones alike. Its influence on their total risk was weaker among the underleveraged organisations. Regarding systematic risk, its levels did not generally change significantly in the wake of the pandemic, but idiosyncratic risk, only in the case of the overleveraged companies increased statistically significantly.

<p>Population growth can encourage and hinder economic growth. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence gross domestic product (GDP) in Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta (DIY) using panel data regression. This study uses three independent variables, namely number of population, number of poor population, and investment, while the dependent variable is GDP. We use secondary data obtained from Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS). The results obtained from the regression analysis of the data series time panel are generalized least square (GLS), while for the cross section data panel shows the REM model is more suitable than PLS and FEM. Based on the validity test of the influence or t-test, the variable that shows significant to the economic rate which is categorized as GRDP in the Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta in 2011-2015 is the variable Total population and Investment which has a positive relationship.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong><strong> : </strong>economic growth rate, panel data regression, gross regional domestic product</p>

LQ45 index is the house of 45 stocks with high liquidity, big market capitalization and good financial performance. This paper aims to investigate whether the existence status of stocks in LQ45 index in the past affects the current profitability performance of the companies. This study relies on semesterly data from 19 companies dated from 2012 to 2015. Using panel data regression model of Net Profit Margin (NPM), the findings suggests that the existence of stocks in LQ45 index in previous period significantly affect the NPM. The results are robust and consistent across specifications either using fixed effect or random effect approaches. The magnitude ranges from 22,77 to 26,87 percentage points.

One of the most perplexing issues faced by finance managers is to know about the effect of capital structure on the profitability of firm. Many studies have been carried out to examine the effect of capital structure on the profitability of firms, but most of them belong to other parts of the world, and only few studies have been conducted in India. Thus, the present study has been undertaken to evaluate the effect of capital structure on the profitability of Nifty 50 companies listed on National Stock Exchange of India from 2008 – 2017. The data has been analyzed by using descriptive statistics, correlation and multiple panel data regression models. Four different regression models have been used to study the relationship between capital structure and profitability. In these models, we study the individual effect of total debt and total equity ratios on profitability, that is, ROA and ROE. All four models have been tested with pooled OLS, fixed effects, and random effects. We conclude that there is significant positive impact of capital structure on firm’s profitability.
