Abstract

The country's financial stability is a fundamental aspect that underlies the sustainability and economic development of a country. One of the most influential factors in maintaining this stability is state revenue, especially from the tax sector. In this context, the Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) plays a very strategic role in managing an efficient and effective tax system. The DGT is responsible for formulating and implementing policies that can optimize tax revenues to support the country's financial stability. This study aims to evaluate how strategic management is implemented by the DGT in order to achieve these goals. The main focus of this research is to identify the challenges and opportunities faced by the DGT in strengthening the country's financial stability through tax system reform. To achieve this goal, this study uses the strategic management theory of R. David, which includes three main aspects: strategy formulation, strategy implementation, and strategy evaluation. By analyzing each of these stages, this study seeks to provide insight into how the DGT can be more effective in carrying out its role and overcome existing obstacles in achieving the country's financial stability goals.

Abstract

Tax audits are an integral part of implementing the self-assessment system. The tax audit phase begins with preparatory activities, such as developing an audit plan. The audit plan encompasses several activities that must be carried out as a guideline for conducting tax audits. This study aims to determine the role of audit plans in improving the effectiveness of tax audits, particularly during the planning stage. This research used a descriptive qualitative approach, involving in-depth interviews with tax auditors and data analysis using the NVivo application. The results indicate that problem identification has been developed for each audit assignment based on available data and information. A risk-based audit plan strategy is implemented to direct the audit focus and ensure the application of methods, techniques, and procedures to obtain competent and sufficient evidence. The use of technology, such as the Derik application, facilitates audit plan development and more structured risk identification. Currently, detailed and focused audit plans help improve audit effectiveness by providing a deterrent effect and successfully obtaining competent and sufficient audit evidence that can be accounted for in the event of a tax dispute. However, the audit team's utilization of audit plans is still suboptimal, impacting audit effectiveness. This study recommends strengthening the implementation of risk-based audit plans and optimizing technology in tax audits.
