First, as the Union of  Indonesia was  organized  in 1929, 1970 is relatively the  middle  of  the  Indonesia  movement  up  to  now.  Second,  started  in  1970  the leadership in the two Indonesia unions were transferred from non-Indonesian leaders to the native Indonesian.  In that relation, this study compares the achievements of the Seventh-day Adventist church leadership in Indonesia pre and post 1970, the year when the leaderships were transferred from non-Indonesian to the native Indonesian, from the view  of  membership,  numbers  of  churches,  as  well  as  the  institutional  and  landmarks establishments.The  finding  indicates  that  the  achievements  of  Seventh-day  Adventist church  in  Indonesia  under  leadership  of  native  Indonesia  post  1970  is  significantly decrease when compared to the non-Indonesian leadership in previous period from the view  of  membership  growth(83.55%)  and  number  of  churches  (102.94%).  This conclusion  is  indicated  by  average  annual  membership  growth  which  decreases  from 7.81% in Period 1 of to 3.56% in Period 2 and the average annual number of churches growth  which  decreases  from  5.30%  in  Period  1  of  to  2.69%.  The  statistical  data  also reported  that most of current major  institutions and landmarks were established during the  leadership  of  non-Indonesian.    Nevertheles,  the  leadership  in  Period  2  had maintained the institutions and developed them into more sophisticated institutions.     Keywords:  Seventh-day  Adventist  Church  ,  leadership,  membership  growth,  number  of churches 

The study examines the predictive ability of interim announcement on projecting year-end financial statements. The investigation tests the accuracy of projected income statements by using proportional method of Q1, Q2, and Q3 interim announcements against actual year-end.   The study investigates 280 announcements from 70 of 415 firms listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange.  The  indicators  being  measured are  the  income  statements  components  which include revenue, expense, other income/loss, net income,  and earning per share (EPS) of the interim announcements. The study uses mean deviation as tools on measurements.    The  finding  indicates  that  income  statements  reported  in  the  interim  announcements,  if projected proporsionally, deviate signifantly against the actual year-end (Q4), in most type of  industries,  which  reflected  by  the  significant  mean  deviation.  The  conclusion  is consistent in all main components of income statements tested, including sales, expenses, other income/loss, net income, and earning per share (EPS). However, the study indicates that eventhough the deviation is still signicant, it is reduced in Q2 and Q3 as the periods are longer.   Keywords: interim announcement, mean deviation, Indonesian Stock Exchange 

Discipline, Innovation, and Work Environment were examined in this study to see how they affected employee performance at the Simalungun District Forest Service. The study's participants and sample were Dinas Kehutanan Kabupaten Simalungun's State Civil Servant (ASN) employees, and questionnaires were distributed to up to 106 of them using quantitative methods and data collection procedures. Work environment, discipline, and innovation are the dependent and independent factors, respectively (Employee Performance). The Classical Assumption Test (Normality Test, Multicollinearity Test, Heteroscedasticity Test) and Hypothesis Testing are both used to assess testing instruments' validity and reliability (Coefficient of Determination R2, F test, t-test). Fcount>Ftable (2.533> 2.30), according to this study, indicates that the independent variable (X) has an impact on the dependent variable (Y). The discipline variable (X1) has only a little effect on employee performance when the tcount ttable is (1.5081.983). (Y). A partial absence of influence on employee performance (Y) is found for the innovation variable (X2) when the value is set to tcountttable (-0.9541.983). Work environment (X3) has just a limited impact on employee performance (Y) when using tcountttable (- 1.8631.983). 

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of compensation and organizational culture on morale and its impact on employee performance at PT Mopoli Raya Medan. This study used a quantitative descriptive method. The population and sample in this study are permanent employees in all parts of PT Mopoli Raya Medan, amounting to 50 respondents. The sampling technique used is nonprobability sampling. This study uses path analysis which consists of two equations. The results of the study showed two path structural sub-structural equations, namely Y1 = 3.817 + 0.510X1 + 0.300X2 + 0.658 and Y2 = 2.934 + 0.299X1 + 0.352X2 + 0.292Y1 + 0.616. The first sub-structural equation explains that compensation variables and organizational culture have a positive and significant effect on work morale both partially and simultaneously, which partially or directly compensation variables have a more dominant influence on work morale than organizational culture variables with their respective contributions amounting to 0.510 and 0.300. Furthermore, the second sub-structural equation explains that compensation variables, organizational culture, and work morale have a positive and significant effect on employee performance both partially and simultaneously, which partially or directly compensation variables have a more dominant influence on employee performance compared to organizational culture variables and work morale with contributions of 0.510, 0.300 and 0.292 respectively. As well as simultaneous compensation variables, organizational culture and morale influence on employee performance by 62% and the remaining 38% is influenced by other variables.
