PENTINGNYA EDUKASI TERKAIT PEMBUKUAN BAGI PELAKU USAHA MIKRO KECIL MENENGAH (UMKM) : Studi Kasus Radja Parfum Panam Pekanbaru

Abstract

Understanding and skills in preparing proper bookkeeping are crucial elements in the financial management of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). This study aims to explore the urgency of bookkeeping education for MSMEs, with a focus on the Radja Parfum business operating in the Panam area, Pekanbaru. This community service shows that limited knowledge in recording financial transactions causes business actors to experience difficulties in managing cash flow, calculating profits or losses, and obtaining access to capital from financial institutions. Through training and mentoring in simple bookkeeping based on the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small, and Medium Entities (SAK EMKM), business actors are beginning to realize the importance of financial records as a basis for making more accurate business decisions.
