Abstract

This study aimed to examine the direct and indirect effects of fiscal decentralization on regional disparity through economic growth in eastern and western Indonesia. The method used in this study is Path Analysis. The variables used in this study include the General Allocation Fund (DAU/Dana Alokasi Umum), Special Allocation Fund (DAK/Dana Alokasi Khusus), Revenue Sharing Fund (DBH/Dana Bagi Hasil), local revenue (PAD/Pendapatan Asli Daerah), Economic Growth (G), and regional disparity (IW). Comparing the analysis between eastern and western of Indonesia, the results show that there is no direct effect of fiscal decentralization on regional disparity and economic growth through direct fiscal decentralization on regional disparity in both eastern and western of Indonesia. However, using some measures of fiscal decentralization, in the case of eastern of Indonesia, DAU variable has significant effect whereas in the case of western Indonesia, DBH is the only one variable that has significant effect. This is consistent with the fact that composition of the balance funds disbursed by the central government to local governments, where the greatest composition of funds in eastern Indonesia come from the General Allocation Fund which reflects the dependence of local governments to the central government and for the western region of Indonesia, DBH is the greatest reflecting the independence of the local governments. As a result, to create fiscal decentralization working it is required a greater allocation of the fund balance.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the movement of macroeconomic variables, especially inflation and exchange rates. Inflation affects the exchange rate through the Law of One Price and Purchasing Power Parity, while the exchange rate affects inflation through the Exchange Rate Pass-Through Effect. This study also aims to examine the effect of other macroeconomic factors on inflation and exchange rates. The variables studied and suspected of influencing inflation are interest rates, money supply, exports, imports, government spending, unemployment, and exchange rates. While the variables studied and suspected of influencing the exchange rate are the difference in interest rates between domestic and foreign interest rates, trade balance, public debt, inflation and exchange rates MYR/USD, THB/USD, PHP/USD, SGD/USD. The research period is from 2004-2017. The research method used is the Two-Staged Least Square model. The results found that there was no simultaneity between inflation and the exchange rate after adding the control variable. Significant factors that partially affect inflation are exports, imports, government spending, unemployment, and the rupiah exchange rate. Meanwhile, interest rates and money supply partially have no significant effect. In terms of the IDR exchange rate, significant factors that partially affect IDR are the difference in interest rates between Indonesia and the US, government debt, trade balance, MYR, THB, and SGD. Meanwhile, PHP and inflation have no significant effect on the IDR.
