This study examines the educational foundation's organizational decision making model that is the influence of accounting information and organizational culture on decision making. This research is a quantitative study with descriptive and inferential analysis. The sample of this study was 72 Catholic education foundations in Indonesia, which were tested by Partial Least Square (PLS) based analysis and data processing methods with the Smart PLS 3.0 program. This study obtains some empirical evidence, namely, first, accounting information significantly influences decision making. These results are consistent with the theory that the main purpose of the foundation's financial statements is to provide relevant information to meet the foundation's internal and external interests to help decision makers make the best decisions for the organization. Second, organizational culture significantly influences decision making. This result is in line with organizational culture theory which states that organizational culture is a value that is used as a reference in all decisions and actions of members of the organization and that reflects the goals, identity, and standard of evaluation of everything in the organization.

Management accounting information system (MAIS) is an integral part of an organizational structure. MAIS refers to the normative, but when MAIS is implemented, it has unintended or unforeseen consequences, this is because, in the context of social organization and socially too, it is not been well understood by users. To avoid the user’s misunderstanding which gives the effect on the quality of MAIS, organizational culture can connect these problems. This study was conducted at the state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in Indonesia. Data analysis of study used structural equation model (SEM) with the approach of partial least square (PLS). The study results found that organizational culture affects the quality of MAIS. The results also found that the dimensions and indicators that are used to build the study model showed strong value, which means that the dimensions and indicators reflect the organizational culture and the quality of MAIS in SOEs in Indonesia.

The method used in this research is descriptive and verification methods. Observation Unit conducted at PT. Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) Bandung City with its analysis unit are employees in the accounting sub-division 20 people and the system 20 people. The statistical test used is the calculation of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with a variance-based analysis of Partial Least Square (PLS) and hypothesis testing using the help of the Smart PLS 3.0 application. Based on the research conducted it can be seen that (1) Organizational culture significantly influences the quality of accounting information system (2) the quality of accounting information system significantly influences the quality of accounting information.

Purposepurpose of this study is to present a Lean Readiness Assessment Model (LRAM) for assessing the readiness of Humanitarian Organizations (HO) for adopting Lean Management (LM) (Johanson et al.) practices. Literature reveals that implementation of LM itself is a cost and most organizations have failed to adopt LM techniques due to a non-readiness status and a non-supportive organizational culture. This situation indicates that the assessment of organizations' readiness before implementation of lean techniques is necessary.Design/methodology/approachThis was an empirical quantitative study. Based on a synthesis of the literature, a conceptual model was developed by identifying seven critical success factors (CSFs). The CSFs were validated by HO professionals via a questionnaire-based survey. The data from the responses were analysed by applying partial least square structured equation modelling (PLS-SEM) using the SmartPLS3 software.FindingsA proven LRAM was constructed that consists of CSFs (independent and mediating variables), which have reflected positive coefficients and significant t >1.96 and p < 0.05 values. The CSFs that are significant include process management, planning and control management, customer relationship management, human resource management, communication and coordination management and a positive organizational culture. The CSFs of supplier relationship and top management and leadership had insignificant t and p values and were dropped from the final LRAM.Originality/valueThis is a unique and rare study in its nature which developed LRAM for HO sector. The contribution of this model is to improve the efficiency and sustainability (economic and social aspects) of an HO under scarce resource conditions.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to find out whether risk perception can affect rapidity in international market entry. Also, this paper tries to find out whether the decision-making approach, effectuation, can moderate the pathway between risk tolerance and internationalization speed. Design/methodology/approach A hypothetico-deductive methodology has been used to conduct this study. Using partial least square regression, this study tested and proved two developed hypotheses based on a sample of 101 software and IT-enabled services firms in Bangladesh. The sample was selected using non-probability sampling techniques, and data were collected using a structured questionnaire developed from the extant literature. Findings All of the hypotheses proposed in this study have been accepted. The results show that the effectual approach of decision-making negates the risk perception of the entrepreneur and speeds up the internationalization process of that firm. Research limitations/implications The implications of this study are inherent in the entrepreneurial cognition and decision-making approach (effectuation). This study provides an insight into risk perception and the rapidity of internationalization, which can spur future development in this field. Originality/value Rapidity in internationalization of small- and medium-sized enterprises depends on a significant number of factors, one of which is the decision-making approach. The decision-making approach followed by the firms can have an effect on the speed of internationalization. This paper connects the dots between the rapidity of entry to foreign markets with a cognitive variable, risk perception. This paper developed two hypotheses to measure the relationship between risk perception of the entrepreneurs and the rapidity in international market entry with moderation of the decision-making approach.
