Judul: The effect of working capital management components to the profitability of mining sector company in indonesia stock exchange
Abstrak: Pertambangan menjadi salah satu penentu perekonomian Indonesia karena berperan strategis dan berpengaruh besar terhadap hajat hidup orang banyak. Hal tersebut tentunya menuntut perusahaan pertambangan agar mampu berproduksi secara optimal termasuk mengelola modal kerja dengan baik yang nantinya akan berdampak pada profitabilitas. Penelitian ini menggunakan laporan keuangan tahun 2012-2013 seluruh perusahaan yang tergabung ke dalam sektor pertambangan dan terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia (BEI) dengan menggunakan analisis rasio keuangan dan analisis regresi linier berganda sebagai metode penelitian. Variabel independen dalam penelitian ini adalah komponen manajemen modal kerja yang terdiri dari cash conversion cycle (CCC), average collection period (ACP), average age of inventory (AAI), dan average payment period (APP). Sedangkan variabel dependen dalam penelitian ini adalah profitabilitas yang diproksikan oleh net profit margin (NPM). Hasil analisis secara simultan maupun parsial menunjukkan bahwa komponen manajemen modal kerja tidak berpengaruh terhadap profitabilitas perusahaan sektor pertambangan di BEI., Mining sector has become one of those which determines Indonesia’s economy due to the strategic role and has a big power of impact to many peoples. So that mining company has to produce optimal and manage the working capital properly consider to the profitability. This research using 2012-2013 financial report of all the mining sector companies in Indonesia Stock Exchange with financial ratio analysis and multiple linear regression analysis as the research method.

Judul: Penggunaan Teorema Homeomorphy 2-Manifold dan Teorema Euler Poincare pada Torus 𝑇�� dan Simplicial Complex 𝐾��
Abstrak: Two dimensional topological spaces are said to be homeomorphic if they have the same topological invariant, where one of topological invariant used is an Euler characteristic. Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem and Euler Poincare’s Theorem are used to distinguish two topological spaces. Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem uses Euler characteristic to identify two dimensional topological spaces. Euler Poincare’s Theorem is an alternative way to find Euler characteristic with Betti number, which is topological invariant as well. The objective of this paper is to investigate the homeomorphism of torus 𝑇����� and simplicial complex 𝐾�����. Topological space torus and simplicial complex 𝐾����� have the same Euler characteristic, which is two. Based on Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem topological space torus 𝑇����� and simplicial complex 𝐾����� is homeomorphic.
