Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of tax literacy, tax socialization, and the implementation of the Core Tax Administration System on tax compliance among Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Semarang. MSMEs play a significant role in Indonesia’s economy; however, their level of tax compliance remains relatively low, creating challenges for optimizing tax revenue. Therefore, understanding the factors that influence compliance is essential. This research employs a quantitative approach using primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to MSME taxpayers in Semarang. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling, with criteria including active MSME actors who possess a Taxpayer Identification Number (NPWP). Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to examine the relationship between independent variables tax literacy, tax socialization, and the Core Tax Administration System and the dependent variable, tax compliance. The results indicate that all three independent variables have a positive and significant effect on MSME tax compliance. The implementation of the Core Tax Administration System has the strongest influence, followed by tax literacy and tax socialization. These findings suggest that both behavioral factors (knowledge and awareness) and structural factors (system efficiency and accessibility) play important roles in shaping compliance behavior. In conclusion, improving MSME tax compliance in Semarang requires an integrated approach that enhances tax literacy, strengthens tax socialization programs, and ensures the effective implementation of digital tax systems. This study contributes to the existing literature by providing empirical evidence on the combined effects of these variables in a local context. The findings are expected to support policymakers in designing more effective tax strategies and improving overall tax administration.

Abstract

This study seeks to analyze the influence of simple accounting practices and financial literacy on the income growth performance of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Medan Timur. Simple accounting is operationalized through key indicators, including systematic record-keeping, preparation of financial reports, and consistency in bookkeeping practices. Financial literacy is assessed based on the level of understanding of fundamental financial concepts, financial planning capabilities, and the ability to make informed financial decisions in business contexts. Meanwhile, income growth performance is measured using indicators such as increased sales, profit growth, and overall financial stability. The study adopts a quantitative research design, employing a survey method as the primary data collection technique. A total of 75 MSME actors in Medan Timur were selected as respondents using purposive sampling. Data were gathered through structured questionnaires specifically developed to measure the research variables. The collected data were subsequently analyzed using multiple linear regression to evaluate the magnitude and significance of the relationships between variables. The findings reveal that both the implementation of simple accounting and financial literacy exert a positive and statistically significant effect on MSME income growth. Accurate and consistent financial recording enables business owners to better monitor and control their financial performance, while a higher level of financial literacy enhances their capacity to make strategic and effective financial decisions. These results underscore the importance of strengthening basic accounting practices and improving financial knowledge as key drivers for sustainable income growth and long-term business development among MSMEs in Medan Timur.
