Indradi — Fri, 16 Jun 2023 00:00:00 +0000

For some countries, tax amnesty is viewed as a shortcut tool to raise additional tax revenue. However, many of them seem to be unaware of the medium to long-term impact to tax compliance. This study aims to evaluate the impact of repeated tax amnesties in Indonesia from a tax compliance perspective. It focuses on the medium to long-term effects and uses income tax revenue as a variable to measure tax compliance. The research methods employed in the study are both qualitative and quantitative, allowing for a comprehensive examination of the topic. One important aspect of the study is the use of time series analysis with an ARIMA model to analyse the income tax revenue. This analysis helps in understanding the trends and patterns in income tax revenue over time and allows for the identification of any significant changes or impacts caused by the tax amnesties. The findings in this study align with other previous research, which indicate that tax amnesty does not affect long-term tax revenue and may adversely influence medium to long-term compliance. It can also cause a decline in short-term compliance, particularly when taxpayers expect repeated amnesties.

Profits are generated by managing assets and using them wisely to create revenues that exceed costs. This study aimed to analyse the effects of managerial competence on firm profitability listed in the Dar es Salaam stock exchange (DSE). The quantitative research design was used to collect, analyse and interpret data in this research while Panel Regression Model was selected to analyse the influence of Managerial competence on profitability of listed firms. POLS technique was used to check robustness and Diagnostic tests were used to meet the criteria of regression analysis. The regression analysis indicate that managerial competence had a significant effect on firm profitability. Raising managerial competence has the potential to significantly increase business profitability, as managers play a key role in an organization's overall functioning. The researchers suggested that shareholders should thoroughly analyse potential managers' competencies and credentials before allocating managerial duties since hiring a competent management team is likely to have a beneficial impact on the firm's profitability. Shareholders should strive to reduce the risk of choosing managers who lack the requisite abilities to maximize the firm's profitability by performing due diligence in the selection process.

Destiny Wulandari, Suparna Wijaya — Mon, 31 Jul 2023 00:00:00 +0000

Middle-income trap triggers the middle-income countries to boost their economic growth. As tax revenue has causal relationship with economic growth, it is essential to conduct a study on how to improve tax revenue. Considering the potential of agriculture and manufacturing sectors in lower middle-income countries, particularly in East Asia and Pacific Regions one of which is Indonesia, this study aims to determine the effects of both sectors on tax revenue in the respective regions. This study uses exchange rate as moderating variable and foreign direct investment (FDI) as control variable. The utilization of the two variables becomes the novelty of this study since researches that uses the two variables have never been conducted. In addition, no references of former studies concerning the effects of the two sectors on tax revenue in lower middle-income countries found. The research is conducted from 2002 to 2019 by using panel data multiple linear regression analysis method. By using fixed effect model and ridge regression model, it is indicated that before the moderation is carried out, agriculture has a negative effect and manufacture has a positive effect on tax revenue. However, after the variables are moderated with exchange rate, the interaction of agriculture and exchange rate has positive effect on tax revenue, while the interaction of manufacture and exchange rate has negative effect on tax revenue. This study implies that to optimize a country's tax revenue, apart from focusing on optimizing agriculture or manufacture, exchange rate condition needs to be considered.

The Determinants of Tax Revenue in the Context of International Transactions in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) Regions 2002-2019

Hendiva Tri Nugraha, Suparna Wijaya — Mon, 21 Aug 2023 05:40:18 +0000

Tax revenue is one of the backbones of economy in almost every country in the world. There are several determinants that influence the amount of tax revenue in one country, one of which is international transaction activities. Such activities can partly be presented by three variables; Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), Trade Openness (TO), and External Debt. This study aims to acknowledge the effects of international transaction experienced by a country regarding its tax revenue. External Debt is used as a moderating variable to the effects of FDI and TO on tax revenue. The data source was taken from the World Bank within the period of 2002-2019 in 19 countries around LAC regions. The study implements an associative quantitative method with PCSE regression. The result showed that FDI affects tax revenue negatively, whereas trade openness and external debt affect tax revenue positively. External debt as a moderating variable strengthens the effect of FDI and weakens the effects of trade openness to tax revenue. Further research is expected to include all the LAC countries, add more variables relevant to the international transactions, and renew the research period.
