Research Objectives to provide an overview of
existing results from previous research and
provide conclusions by researchers. The research
method used is a literature review derived from
existing scientific articles from various journals in
the world related to variables.
The results of research in this study provide
significant results with quantitative research
methods and mostly use qualitative methods with
the results of the researcher's perspective. The
researcher highlighted that in finance there are
other variables that can be used in the future by

INTRODUCTION
In financial studies, we know about sales, profit and growth of a
company, salesof products or services to consumers in accordance with policies
or plans that have been made by the company, to succeed in sales, salespeople
must have an effective sales strategy and know the factors that affect sales
success. Profit margins are affected by cost of goods sold and cost observations
may not always be reflected in profit margins (Cheng et al., 2020), Factors—
factors affecting sales growth range from promotion to internal motivation and
retention of talented employees to indirect opportunities to invest in new
technologies and equipment in the production process. In addition, it benefits
from the learning curve and economies of scale provided by sales growth (Fazli
et al., 2013).
Profit maximization and growth are two competing business goals. It is
profit-oriented or growth-oriented, but not both, because it is difficult for
managers to achieve both goals at the same time. So there is a trade-off between
profit and growth (Lee, 2014), another opinion also states that maintaining a
business and competing with other businesses requires many things, including
strategy, new ideas, customer trust, even large capital. The value of a company
is influenced by factors such as taxation, company size, growth, uniqueness,
financial risk, profitability, dividend payments, and debt-free tax-free
(Hestinoviana et al., 2013);(Suryawan et al., 2021). According to (Fazli et al.,
2013) states that the effectiveness of financial management is determined by
profitability, liability management and financial management. Debt
management is measured as total debt to equity and the ratio of long-term
liabilities to equity. Profitability is measured by return on equity, return on
equity and return on capital invested.
Current business models vary and various hurdles are faced, there is an
opinion from (Nezami et al., 2018) that if trade declines and increasing pressure
from low-cost competitors, many business-to-business manufacturers have
moved from their previously successful product-centric strategies to more
service-oriented business models. The purpose of this study was to see and
analyze the influence between the three variables using review literature.
THEORETICAL REVIEW
Income
According to Revenue is the amount of money a business earns over a
period of time by creating goods or services. According to (Lam &; Lau, 2014),
revenue is anaggregate liran of financial benefits resulting from the normal
(economic) activity of a company during a period when the profit flow
generates cash flows unrelated to payments to shareholders.
Profit
(Horngren et al., 2002) Your revenue is greater than the sum of your
income and total expenses. This is also called net profit. According to (Hansen
&; Mowen, 2007) profit represents a company's trading income minus interest
costs, taxes, and research and development costs. The annual yield is presented
as profit and loss.

Growth
The growth of the company is expected both internally and externally,
because good growth indicates the development of the company. From the
investor's point of view, the company's growth shows that the company is
profitable and the investor has decided to invest in the company (kusumajaya,
2011).
METHODOLOGY
This research uses qualitative techniques in a way that is relevant to the
literature. Literary studies are types or methods of academic writing in the form
of literature research. Theoretical analysis and analysis of relationships between
variables in books and journals from Mendeley, Google Scholar and other
online media. The journals surveyed are listed in the journal metrics table
below.

LP adoption can
increase sales and

short term (within
the first year), and
these positive effects
persist in the long
run (at least). three
years of driving).
However, the effect
on gross results
became significant
only in the second
quarter after the
introduction of LP,
and its overall effect
on results remained
significant even after
sales. Based on these
preliminary findings,
the results suggest
that offering LPs on a
tiered basis or with a
revenue mechanism
can provide a
significant increase in
sales and gross profit
for the company.
Overall, the study
shows that the

Variable : Profit
margin
The four
performance
characteristics
associated with
revenue forecasts—
optimism, relative
accuracy relative to
benchmark forecasts,
forecast sub optimal
and serial correlation
of forecast error—
apply to sales and
profit margins. Sales
forecast generally
perform better than
forecasts margin
keuntungan.
Additional evidence
also suggests that
sales forecasts
perform better than
profit margin
forecasts in terms of
how their forecast
errors account for
errors in profit
forecasts and how
realized surprises
affect changes in
their respective
forecasts. We also
found that a better
information
environment as a
proxy for size
increased sales
forecasts more than
estimated profit
margins. All these
findings suggest that
forecasting profit
margins is inherently
more difficult than
forecasting sales.

RESEARCH RESULTS
From the results of the elaboration of the three variables used in this
study, the description of dozens of scientific articles found many that state the
significance between the three variables in this study, using various research
methods and data analysis. Only one scientific article from the research results
(Hestinoviana et al., 2013) stated the results of his research that profitability
and sales growth did not have a significant effect on company value, with a
profitability regression coefficient (B) of 0.19 and sales growth of 0.003.

In addition, there are several other variables used in the search for
researchers such as Market Distortions, innovation Efficies, Solvency, Solvency,
local food markets, forecast, loyalty program introduction, design on short,
Service, Value Trade-offs of sales, Earning Volatility, industrial service, role of

DISCUSSION
The results of the study above show that only one research result that is
not significant between the variables of profitability and sales growth does not
have a significant effect on company value, with a regression coefficient of
profitability (B) of 0.19 and sales growth of 0.003 from the results of the study
(Hestinoviana et al., 2013).
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
That there are scientific articles related to the variables in this study, with
only one research result (Hestinoviana et al., 2013) stating different research
results, as well as the use of qualitative research methods of review and
quantitative literature with various analytical test tools.
The recommendations in this study still need reinforcement and provide
an overview that will be continued in other studies in the future. There are
other variables that can be put together in future research by other researchers
as gaps and new phenomena to produce research and contribute to the field of
finance, especially financial studies.
