1 Introduction
MSMEs (Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises) are contemplated as alternative
sources for developing economies in some countries (Fatoki, 2012; Cakmak, 2018).
MSMEs receive more attention compared to large business by among international
organizations since they devote potential contribution which influential for the
economy. In addition, they play a pivotal role in the poverty alleviation alike cultivate
initiatives to create jobs and increase additional labor-intensive products (Duncombe &
Richard, 2005; Ayyagari, Thorsten & Asli, 2007; Islam et al, 2011; Bhatti et al., 2012;
Talebi et al., 2012; Kazlauskaitė et al., 2015).
Manurung (2008) points out that MSMEs are small-scale business enterprises

economic booster and labors supplier, MSMEs play a prominent role in distributing
development outcomes. The presence of MSMEs in Banda Aceh likewise has conferred
a prominent meaning in providing the source of individuals’ workplaces. Throughout
the increasing number of unemployed in Banda Aceh which was around 12% has
pointed MSMEs as alternative jobs in Banda Aceh (Nazaruddin, 2015:4 in Nurrahman

Fig. 1. Data of MSMEs Growth in Banda Aceh.
Figure 1 shows that MSMEs in Banda Aceh have been experiencing rapid growth every
year from 2009 to 2015. The increasing number of MSMEs attests that those are self-
employed and a propitious business for the unemployment to be employed. It prompts
the entrepreneurs and MSMEs’ owners to restrain in improving and competing for their
business in many sectors in Banda Aceh. Hence, it is undoubted if the existence of small
businesses greatly increment and scattered in many places, and unavoidable, from ten
emerging commodities of MSMEs which observed, one of them is the trading sectors
being popular in Banda Aceh (Serambinews.com, 2017). Mayor of Banda Aceh,
Aminullah Usman voices that the emerging commodities in Banda Aceh are in the
human resources which centered on the services and trading sectors (www.ajnn.net,
2017).
Interestingly, most of the MSMEs engaged in the trading sectors are preferred using
easy-to-find or local raw materials as the main ingredients since local raw materials are
more prevalent in the social circle and might attract them as consumers because of its
familiarity taste. One of the culinary businesses which using local raw material is fried
banana. Fried banana could be cogitated as one of the reputable snacks which only
utilizing banana and flour as its main ingredients. The taste is appetizing, sweet and
palatable. Likewise, its low-priced could easily tempt the consumers to buy
(usahakuliner.id, 2018).
As a part of MSMEs, the existence of fried banana business is manifested by the
growing business which presenting variations and innovations from “banana-based
culinary” to be processed into valuable kinds of snacks, either dissimilar or similar to
traditionally fried banana towards more valuable innovations, such as banana nuggets,
chocolate bananas, cheese bananas and others, all prove that fried banana business is a
great opportunity in Banda Aceh, hence its development could be growth rapidly
(kompas.com, 2017).
Nonetheless, despite the significant increase, there are still many MSMEs owners’
who confront the difficulty in managing their business. It could result in their business
activities not been outing well. It often happens due to less knowledge of managing
their business such as to organize financial management (Hidayat, 2008). Efficient
financial management practices in MSMEs will provide a historical analysis of the
performance of the business, which then is used to project potential future performance
(Brijlal, Enow & Isaacs, 2014). Basing on the previous studies which conducted by

Fahmi (2013:2) uncoils the concept of financial management as a merger of science
and art that discusses, examines and analyzes how a financial manager uses all the
resources of a company to raise, manage, and distribute funds in order to afford the
profit or prosperity to shareholders and business sustainability for the company”. Horne
in Kasmir (2010:5) also defines that “financial management is all activities related to
the acquisition, funding, and management of assets with multiple objectives entirely”.
Thus entire processes are terminated to earn company revenue by minimizing costs and
allocating the funds efficiently. Thereof, it could maximize the value of the company
(Hartati, 2013).
Financial Management Function
Hartati (2013) dissevers the functions of financial management as:
a. Fundraising activities which aimed at investment decisions that generate profits.
b. The activity of allocating funds which intended to manage the use of funds in
the activities of the company.
Furthermore, Fred in Kasmir (2010:16) disparts the financial management into 4

effectiveness of financial use in operating its business. Those companies are foreseen

2.2 Previous Researches
There were several studies have been conducted related to the implementation of
financial management at MSMEs. Fatoki (2012) investigated the financial
management practices of new microenterprises in South Africa. This research focused
on six financial management practices namely financial planning and control, financial
analysis, accounting information, management accounting, investment appraisal, and
working capital management. The findings indicated that most new micro-enterprises
do not engage in financial planning and control, financial analysis and investment
appraisal. For accounting information, most new micro-enterprises keep certain
accounting books such as sales book and purchases book but do not keep other books
such as drawings book indicating a mixed result.
Further, Oktaviani (2015) conducted research on analisis manajemen keuangan
pada UMKM (Usaha Mikro, Kecil dan Menengah) klaster konveksi di wilayah
Kecamatan Kota Kabupaten Kudus which investigated the problems that occur in
overall SMEs convection generally associated with business expansion or business

Business in Banda Aceh
771
solely to survive, this research reveals that working capital requirements are one of the
obstacles to the development of SMEs. Another limiting factor in the development of
SMEs is in the form of financial information. SMEs in Kudus have not had a financial
report, this happens because of the lack of financial management on Micro, Small and
Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The findings showed that SMEs Convection in Kota
District Kudus regency uses two sources of funding, namely internal and external
sources of funding.
2.3 Theoretical Framework
Financial management is undertaken to obtain maximum profits by allocating funds
efficiently. The allocation of funds is set in budgeting as a part of planning. The
planning is necessary to drive the company’s motion both internally and externally and
become a management evaluation tool. Afterward, the recording intends to record the
transaction occurs within a period proven by some of the pivotal documents. For
MSMEs traditional fried banana, as a micro-size business, the recording activities
might have in a simple manner such as recording in a mini-book with the simple
information. In the reporting process, it would be necessary for MSMEs traditional fried
banana to possess clarity its total profit by having an income statement. Furthermore,
controlling is necessitated to control and evaluate between the planning made and the
actual.

However, in the recording process, owner Cak Ryan admitted that it was difficult
to collect valid document transactions on sales and purchase of raw materials and
overheads. This is because the typical market own is on small scale business, and the
owner confirmed that it is quite difficult to provide receipts for each sales transaction

purchasing transaction are recorded as regularly. The owner affirmed that “the
preparation of recording for sales and purchasing transaction are beneficial to assist the
business progression financially”. While 3 out of 8 indicators are still not implemented

SAK-ETAP which directed by IAI, it is 4 out of 8 which has been implemented simply

indicator is the less implemented among others, which solely 4 of 8 indicators are
positively prepared while the others are not. One of the factors that compels the

management has prominent benefit to the business, there are also some confirmation
given by the owner of Cak Ryan fried banana business related to the financial
management benefit during the operation of business. Regaring the planning, the owner

to the real value”.
The recording indicator has also given the benefits as stated by the owner that
“obviously, recording is very important to do, so that we know how much income is
earned and expenses spent on a single operation. That way, the amount of net income
can be well known.”
While in expanding the business, the reporting indicator is being an essential part
to espouse the business in getting loan from the credit institution, such as Bank. the
owner confirmed that “when a business needs to take loan from the Bank, the essential
part to ensure the Bank given the loan is depending on the financial report prepared”.
The controlling indicator is also usefull to be adopted in the business, though, the
owner also clarified that “the controlling is clearly useful because it becomes an
evaluation tool for the business and knows what deficiencies still need to be improved,

is necessary to the business, it is also manifested by the owner through the statement
“separating between personal cash and business cash has already known by the owner
of a business as its very important to be implemented. Because if there is no separation,
we do not know the real cash earned from the business”. Overall, the financial

Business in Banda Aceh
781
1) In the planning indicator, Cak Ryan has comprehensively implemented its part of
financial management in the business.
2) In the recording indicator, Cak Ryan has sufficiently implemented its part of
financial management in the business.
3) In the reporting indicator, Cak Ryan shows less implemented on it. The reporting
indicators neither sufficiently well implemented nor based on SAK-ETAP.
4) In controlling indicators, Cak Ryan has sufficiently implemented its financial
management in the business.
5.2 Limitiations
Some limitations might be found in this study, there are:
1) The research was carried out merely taking samples in one business unit, namely
in the Ryan Fried Banana business. The results obtained cannot be generalized in
general.
2) The results of the study are limited to research on the application of financial
management with indicators based on the theory of Kuswadi (2005) in Diyana
(2017) with the retrieval of planning, recording, reporting and controlling
indicators.
3) Data obtained in this study may not have an accuracy level of 100% because of
the limitations of Cak Ryan’s owner in carrying out the financial management
activities of his business.
5.3 Recommendation
Based on the research that has been done and the results obtained from data analysis,
the author wants to provide some recommendations as follows:
1) As it is known that the implementation value of the reporting indicator gets the
lowest percentage and falls into the less implemented criteria, the authors suggest
Cak Ryan's owner to continue to deepen his knowledge about better financial
management, especially on reporting indicators. In addition to being useful as a
benchmark for business performance, by doing good reporting, Ryan Fried
Banana's business will be easier in terms of administration if in the future a loan
is needed to expand its business to existing credit institutions.
2) Cak Ryan's owner should arrange the business structure by using a better system,
so that the five branches can be more efficiently controlled. This is because the
Ryan fried banana business has 5 branches, but 2 of the 5 branches that are owned
do not operate optimally or are disabled.
3) For further research that examines the implementation of financial management
at MSMEs, it is better to take more research samples, expand the scope of
research, and further examine the implementation of MSMEs.
