Abstract

Informality issues and government distributional objectives cause the need for VAT special treatment for the agricultural sector. The treatment forms and resulting impacts vary, depending on each country's conditions and necessities. This study aims to estimate the impact of the alternative tax base measurement policies on the VAT revenue performance in the Indonesian agricultural sector. Using input-output table modeling, the authors found that the policy positively impacts the compliance level and VAT revenue in the agricultural sector but reduces the aggregate national VAT revenues and increases the VAT burden that the agricultural sector entrepreneurs must bear. The normal VAT mechanism is preferred for the long-term goal, but the alternative policy is still needed during the transition period.

Abstract

The existence of ex ante moral hazard (EAMH) can cause inefficiency and threaten the sustainability of the health insurance program developed by the Indonesian government. The deficit in health social funds and the increase in the number of smokers in Indonesia may indicate the presence of EAMH. Several studies have explored EAMH, but their conclusions remain inconclusive. This study will utilize panel data from IFLS waves 2, 3, 4, and 5. By combining matching and Difference-in-Differences (PSM-DiD) methods to eliminate various potential biases, this research aims to reveal the impact of participating in subsidized health insurance on changes in smoking intensity among beneficiaries of Askeskin/JKN PBI. The findings suggest that, overall, the Askeskin policy does not indicate the presence of EAMH in relation to smoking behavior. However, within a specific subset of the data, there are indications of EAMH linked to rising smoking expenses among poor urban individuals.
