Abstract
While serving their sentences in correctional institutions, inmates receive various business skills training and increase their understanding of various sciences. One of the goals is for them to be economically independent after completing their sentence/development period in a correctional institution. This training is also one of the requirements that must be met to complete the prison term while in a correctional institution. This research aims to analyze investment in equipment that inmates can use to run entrepreneurship after they are released and return to society. Economic independence can be realized one way through entrepreneurship. This research uses an analytical description method of investment in various equipment that inmates can use to carry out entrepreneurship. The results of research on the analysis of investment equipment for assisted citizen entrepreneurship and its influence on achieving profits show that the manual screen printing form of entrepreneurship can provide greater profits when compared to the equipment investment costs for the entrepreneurship. The results of this study are useful for increasing the understanding and entrepreneurial abilities of inmates at the class IIA Samarinda correctional institution. The profits generated are also equivalent to the equipment investment costs incurred. It is hoped that the results of this research can be a useful consideration for inmates who want to become entrepreneurs.
