The purpose of this study is to examine how accounting knowledge and educational attainment affect the caliber of financial reports produced by Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) in the Eris Sub-district. The inadequate preparation of BUMDes financial statements, which are still completed in a straightforward manner and do not completely comply with the Financial Accounting Standards for Entities Without Public Accountability (SAK ETAP), is the driving force for this study. Forty respondents, who were BUMDes administrators from eight villages in the Eris Sub-district, were given questionnaires as part of the quantitative research procedure. The sampling technique employed was saturated sampling. Data analysis was carried out using the SPSS application version 27 through validity tests, reliability, classical consumptions, multiple linear regression analysis, t-tests, F-tests, and coefficient of determination. The results of the study indicate that accounting understanding has a positive and significant effect on the quality of BUMDes financial statements in Eris Sub-district. Education level does not affect the quality of financial statements; the effect is not dominant because most respondents have relatively the same level of education, namely high school graduates. Partially, accounting understanding has a big impact, while education level does not significantly affect the quality of BUMDes financial statements. This study concludes that improving accounting understanding and developing the competencies of BUMDes managers is essential to produce quality, transparent, and accountable financial statements.
