PROMOTION AND SALES COSTS ON COMPANY PROFITS (Empirical Study of Manufacturing Companies in the Food and Beverage Sector Registered Dibei Period 2018-2. Wikan Budi Utami. Aini Zahrah. LMS Kristiyanti Accounting Study Program. ITB AAS Indonesia Email : budiutamiwikan@gmail. Abstract Net profit is the limited measure of a company's success. The main purpose of establishing a business or company is to make a profit. Planning and controlling profits is one of the roles of company management that is really needed, to generate maximum profits. The following are the factors that influence making a profit, namely production costs, promotion costs, and sales. This research aims to determine the influence of production costs, promotion and sales costs on company profits. In this research, the sample used is food and beverage sector manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2018-2021 period. The analysis method uses multiple linear regression analysis methods with a significance level of 5% or 0. The research results show that the production cost variable with a significance value of 0. 000 < 0. the promotion cost variable with a significant value of 0. 003 < 0. 05 and the sales variable 0. 05 affect the profits of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, this can be seen from the results of the t-test. The results of the f- test show that production costs, promotion costs and sales have a joint effect on company profits, the R2 value is 79,3%. Keywords: Production Costs. Promotion Costs. Sales. Profit Introduction A company has goals or targets that it wants to achieve. One of them is to obtain the maximum possible profit. With the profits obtained then makes the company grow and develop and can provide a good level of satisfaction to consumers. However, it is also important to consider other factors such as revenue growth, cost control, and profit margins. Profit is greatly influenced by internal factors and external factors of the Company, internal factors that influence profit are costs, costs are capital expenditures used to produce a product in the form of goods or services. In the process of producing goods or services, the costs used greatly influence capital. Low production costs will increase sales profits so that company profits will increase. If production costs are high then sales profits are low. An example of external factors is the existence of business competition in the global world which influences profit growth. To measure management's success in managing a company, it can be seen from the size of the profits the company makes. In general, the problem that often arises is cost planning that is not in accordance with what actually happens. Therefore, to achieve efficient production, it is necessary to control the production costs that will be used. Harnanto, . believes that production costs are costs that are considered inherent in the product, including good costs directly or indirectly can be identified with the activities of processing raw materials into finished products. Meanwhile (Mulyadi, 2. believes that production costs are the costs incurred to process raw materials into products that are International Journal of Economics.

To obtain maximum income, the company must spend production costs efficiently so that the company's profits increase. According to Hidayanti et al. ,2019, states that sales volume is the sum of all sales achieved by a company in a certain period. There is a close relationship between sales volume and a company's net profit. The increasing volume of product sales at the company will result in increasing company profits. Sales definitely requires promotion of products sold to consumers. Promotion is a delivery of information from sellers to buyers with the aim of introducing products to buyers who previously did not know the product being sold, so that buyers can get to know and buy the product. Promotion costs can be interpreted as sacrifices incurred by the company in carrying out the company's marketing activities, especially in terms of implementing promotions. The efficiency of production costs, promotional costs and increased sales is expected to produce maximum profits. Profit can make a company grow and develop. One way to obtain maximum profits is to increase sales volume and reduce costs incurred. Yuda, 2020 stated that there is a close relationship between sales volume and the increase in the company's net profit, in this case it can be seen from the company's profit and loss report. Profit will appear if product sales are greater than the costs incurred. Companies must be careful in selling products to consumers, so that the planned sales volume will be achieved in an effective manner. Manufacturing companies in the food and beverage sector are companies that are growing in Indonesia. As an industry that has good economic growth, food and beverage industry shares are one of the most actively traded sub-sectors on the IDX. The growth rate of this industry is quite high and can last for a long time, this can be seen from the level of consumption of the Indonesian As the population growth in Indonesia increases, the need for food and drink also continues to increase. Indonesian people really like to enjoy fast food, which has led to the emergence of many new companies operating in the food and beverage sector. In the midst of the Covid-19 case that has hit the world, food and beverage companies continue to operate with good growth because food and drink are basic needs for humans. so that companies on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (BEI), especially in the food and beverage sub-sector, have the opportunity to grow and develop. Based on the descriptions above, researchers are interested in further research on the influence of production costs, promotional costs incurred by the company and sales on company profits. the author is interested in choosing the title for this writing, namely: "The Influence of Production Costs.

With increasing costs production, it has an impact on increasing the number of products produced. Increasing production quantities can increase sales. The increase in sales has an impact on increasing company profits. This research is supported by research by Ade Elia and Susi Handyani . which states that production costs significantly influence profits. These results agree with Felicia and Robinhot Gultom . who say that the higher the production costs, the higher the product produced, which can generate profits to support the company's profit level. Production costs have an influence on company profits in line with research by IMA Yuda & IKPW Sanjaya . And it is also in line with the research results of Elvira Rosa . that production costs have a significant effect on company However, this is not in line with research by Ika Noviani and Hendra Tipa . that production costs do not have a significant effect on company profits. 3 The Effect of Promotional Costs on Profit The results of this research state that the promotional cost variable (X. has a t value of 3. 028 > t International Journal of Economics.

This means that promotional costs (X. have a significant influence on profits. Promotional costs can provide a positive impetus for increasing sales, which is ultimately expected to increase profits. Promotion is one of the determinants of the success of company programs. This is because if the product has good quality and price, if customers don't know about it due to lack of promotional activities, then the product will not be successfully marketed. These results are in line with research by Filicia and Robinhot Gultom . which states that the research results show that promotional costs have a significant effect on net profit. And in line with research by IMA Yuda and IKPW Sanjaya . , the results of which show that company profits are influenced by promotional costs. And in line with the research results of Firman Riansyah . that promotional costs have a significant effect on net profit. However, this is contrary to the research of Ika Noviani and Handra Tipa . , whose research results state that promotional costs do not significantly influence company profits. The Effect of Sales on Company Profits The results of this research state that the sales variable (X. has a tcount value of 4. 844 > ttable value of 1. 99346 and a significance value of 0. 000 which is greater than A = 0. This means that sales (X. have a significant influence on profits. If sales increase in a company, the company's profits will also increase. The results of this research are in line with the research results of Ika Noviani and Handra Tipa . which state that company profits are greatly influenced by sales volume. And in line with the results of research carried out by IMA Yuda and IKPW Sanjaya . that sales volume has a significant effect on profits.
