Judul: Added Value and Profitability of Cassava Processing Business (Case Study: Pak Bendot's Cassava Processing Business, Pekanbaru City)
Abstrak: Cassava is an agricultural product that can be processed into various foods. Cassava in Indonesia is available almost all year round and the price is cheap. This has caused many entrepreneurs, especially Micro and Small Enterprises (UMK) interested to open a food business with cassava as raw material. Pak Bendot's Cassava Processing Business is an example of a micro small business in Pekanbaru, Riau, which processes fresh cassava into dodol and balado chips. This business will be developed by the local government into icon of Pekanbaru. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the added value and profitability of the cassava processing business with Pak Bendot's Cassava Processing Business as the case.

Profitability analysis using break even point, MOS, and MIR shows that this business is profitable. This business operates above the break-even point with the profitability of processing dodol 42.86% and balado chips 68.12%. This business is sensitive to the increase in the price of its main costs. The increase of business until 100% shows that this business is still profitable., Ubi kayu merupakan produk pertanian yang dapat diolah menjadi aneka makanan. Ubi kayu di Indonesia tersedia hampir sepanjang tahun dan harganya relatif murah.

Judul: Metrik Einstein (Anti-) Self-Dual Berdimensi Empat dengan Metode Cartan
Abstrak: Gravitational field equation can be formulated in differential forms (differential geometry), which describes gravity as a manifestation of the curvature of space-time. Curvature of space-time is characterized by a metric that satisfies the gravitational field equation. With differential forms it can be formulated the (anti-) self-dual Einstein equation, which is a modification of the Cartan structure in (anti-) self-dual basis. Calculation of (anti-) self-dual metric with (anti-) self-dual Einstein equation is simpler than the calculation using Christoffel symbols.
