Abstract

The circulation of illicit tobacco products poses a serious challenge to taxation and state revenue protection. Excise tariff policies and field supervision are key instruments in controlling illicit cigarettes. This study examines how these policies and supervision practices are interpreted and implemented in controlling illicit tobacco products in Bojonegoro Regency, Indonesia, a strategic transit area in the illegal tobacco distribution network. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with five Customs supervisory and investigative officers and analyzed through thematic coding. Findings show that excise tariff policy is perceived not only as a fiscal instrument but also as a factor shaping illegal actors’ cost–benefit considerations, with tariff increases often followed by adaptive distribution strategies. Field supervision translates policy into enforcement risk through adaptive, intelligence-driven, and discretionary practices, including risk-based targeting and delayed interception. However, limited personnel, wide surveillance areas, and adaptive illicit networks constrain enforcement effectiveness. The study highlights that local excise control effectiveness depends on the interaction between tariff policy, field discretion, and institutional capacity, emphasizing the need to combine fiscal measures with adaptive enforcement strategies in dynamic illicit distribution areas.

Abstract

The rapid development of financial technology has significantly transformed consumer payment systems, particularly through the emergence of Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) services. The increasing accessibility of BNPL features on e-commerce platforms provides greater purchasing flexibility for consumers, especially young people who are highly engaged in digital transactions. However, this convenience may also encourage excessive consumption behavior. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effects of BNPL usage and consumer motivation on youth consumptive behavior and to investigate the moderating role of financial literacy in these relationships. The research was conducted among young consumers in Pungpungan Village using a quantitative research approach. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed to 150 respondents selected using purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) to examine the direct effects of BNPL usage and consumer motivation on consumptive behavior and the moderating effects of financial literacy. The results indicate that BNPL usage and consumer motivation have positive and significant effects on youth consumptive behavior. Furthermore, financial literacy significantly moderates both relationships, but in different directions: financial literacy strengthens the positive relationship between BNPL usage and consumptive behavior, while it weakens the positive relationship between consumer motivation and consumptive behavior. These findings indicate that financial literacy does not uniformly reduce consumptive behavior but plays different moderating roles depending on the underlying behavioral driver. The study highlights the importance of strengthening financial literacy initiatives that address responsible BNPL use while also helping young consumers regulate consumption driven by personal and lifestyle motivations.
