Abstract

the practice of loss accounting by ilabulo traders. Research methodology: This research uses the Islamic paradigm. The approach used is Islamic ethnomethodology. There are five data analysis stages: charity, knowledge, faith, revelation information, and courtesy. Results: The study results show that traders avoid losses by distributing the leftover ilabulo to the local community for free. This accounting practice is conditional on the value of patience. In the Islamic culture of Gorontalo, the elders often internalize the value of patience through lumadu "mopo'o tanggalo duhelo" The meaning of this expression is the whole of patience. The implication of this research is to present the concept of loss accounting based on local wisdom values. Limitations: The limitation of this research lies in the informants who have yet to provide information from the cultural experts. Contribution: The contribution of this research is that it can provide deeper insights into the local cultural values that influence the accounting practices of ilabulo traders. This can help us understand how culture plays a significant role in local-level accounting decision-making. Furthermore, the results of this research can be used to develop an accounting model that is more in line with the culture and local context of ilabulo traders. This can assist in designing more relevant and sustainable accounting practices.
