Abstract

Indonesia has enjoyed high and stable economic growth during the last decade. However, the benefits of growth have not been shared equally. Wealth inequality is widening in recent years which gives a serious threat to sustainable growth. The taxation policy still faces challenges to support inequality-reducing programs. The limitation of Personal Income Tax to conduct redistribution role and the absence of capital gain tax in Indonesia are some of the challenges faced in the fiscal policy field. Inheritance is assumed to be one of the sources of wealth accumulation. To reduce the gap between the richest and the rest, it is time for Indonesia to impose an inheritance tax . This paper examines the suitable inheritance tax design for Indonesia taking into consideration of experiences from a few selected countries. Based on the analysis, Indonesia should have an estate tax model with basic exemption starts from IDR 14.5 billion (USD 1 Million).

Abstract

With the spread of information, technology and the Internet, we have found that the tax administration is moving towards online or digital services. The study aims to identify what has worked in the adoption of e-government in tax services. The key aspects include the design of e-government in tax procedures, acceptance and usability factors, impacts, and challenges in the implementation. A scoping review was designed to map the existing evidence on the application of information and technology system in delivering tax services, or known as e-government. Key search terms were developed and mapped. Selected databases and key journals were used in this scoping review. Using the criteria that were determined, we identified 79 articles that most closely demonstrated the purpose of this study. However, we only reported the detailed of the findings from ten included articles. The identified studies reflected the majority of articles investigated the reasons behind the success or failure of e-government projects in the tax administration. This review concludes that in an environment in which the government faced many challenges with the limited resources, e-government adoption in tax administration offers the potential benefit to strengthen the government finances. A greater understanding of the purpose, adoption & acceptance factors, the impact and challenges in the application of e-government projects in tax services is a priority for research, policy and practice.

Abstract

Value Added Tax has contributed significantly in Indonesia’s tax revenue and continually to progress in the term of its role in increasing the tax revenue. Unfortunately, the phenomenon of VAT fraud, intended to minimize VAT payment, would give consequences in violating the tax revenue. In order to minimize this phenomenon, DGT has been maximizing the use of technology in VAT administration. Since the 1st of July 2016, the use of e-Faktur has been enforced to all registered Taxable Entrepreneurs. The enforcement of the e-Faktur has been effectively reducing the number of counterfeit tax invoices. Nonetheless, the e-Faktur is still not be able to capture the accuracy of transactions in Tax Invoices. As a result, DGT relies heavily on the approach of conventional audit for auditing taxpayers’ VAT compliance. This approach is considered to be less effective and become a problem since DGT does not have sufficient tax auditors. The number of tax invoices that needs to be audited could be piled up whilst the amount of tax credits to be audited are also high. This paper aims to discuss this problem by using a statistical technique namely Benford's law. It is recognized in the forensic audit literature that Benford's law can be a tool to help an early fraud examination of many transactions. By using particular statistical procedures, this paper will argue that Benford's Law can be used to analyze the accuracy of VAT value on tax invoices that is reported on the monthly VAT Return.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the company’s effective tax rate on forced president director turnover. Prior studies find that the company’s effective tax rate is used continuously by shareholders to assess the performance of top manager (president director), then used as the basis of making decisions whether to hire or to fire the top manager. The effective tax rate of company is measured using accountancy effective tax rate (ETR) and cash effective tax rate (Cash ETR). By using 90 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) as the samples, selected after going through purposive sampling stages, with firm-years starting from 2012 to 2016, this study finds that the company’s effective tax rate (both ETR and Cash ETR) does not affect the forced president director turnover.

Abstract

This research develops a broad conceptual framework of shadow economy transactions in Indonesia based on the previous research and finds the correlation with the current tax regulation on automatic exchange of information and tax compliance. Shadow economy is the activity of individuals, households, and/or firms that evade, avoid, or not report its transaction to the government. Based on the previous research, by using monetary approach, the average size of shadow economy in Indonesia equals to 8 – 19% of GDP. Based on this data, the government uses automatic exchange of information (AEOI) to minimize the effect of shadow economy to increase tax revenue and to boost tax compliance.

Abstract

This paper contributes to the empirical literature regarding the assumptions of the Slippery Slope Framework using cross-country data in the regional economy. Some studies in this area have tested the assumptions of the framework using primary data collected through surveys with real taxpayers or students as subjects, and some studies have tested the framework using statistical data generated from an institutional database. This study tested these assumptions using statistical data generated from the institutional database i.e., Asian Development Bank and World Bank. Align with prior studies that confirm the effect of trust and power on tax compliance, this study hypothesizes that tax compliance can be explained by the existence of both trust and power. It further hypothesizes that tax compliance can be explained by the interaction between trust and power as well. This study is based on 10 ASEAN countries as the population, consisting Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippine, Brunei, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, and Cambodia. The empirical result from our sample represents that trust and power interact in explaining tax compliance.

Abstract

Cross-border tax evasion has been a central issue in international taxation in recent years. The use of Offshore Financial Centres (OFCs) and low tax jurisdictions to facilitate the wealth of high net worth individuals has led to offshore tax evasion and has eroded the tax bases of countries. Meanwhile, international tax cooperation is emerging with the aim of enhancing tax transparency. One way to reach tax transparency is with the implementation of the exchange of information for tax purposes. The tax authorities have already implemented the exchange of information on request; however, this method is ineffective to fight against offshore tax evasion. The tax authorities must already obtain the evidence of their suspicion over the taxpayers; otherwise, their request may be denied as a ‘fishing expedition’. The demand for offshore financial information is obvious since it will enable tax authorities to oversee the level of offshore tax compliance. This study considers the importance of the Automatic Exchange of Information (AEOI) as a tool to access the resident’s financial information of residents who kept their financial assets in other jurisdictions with a case study in Indonesia. The financial information from other jurisdictions is fundamental for Indonesia because it can be used for analysis and law enforcement of taxpayers, especially those who previously saved money abroad and have not reported or paid the correct amount of tax. This paper recognizes that despite the benefits of the AEOI, the implementation of the AEOI in Indonesia is still facing challenges, although it has been two years since its first implementation. This study will follow a qualitative methodological approach with a detailed literature review and real experience in Indonesia. Finally, this article explores the current stage of implementing the AEOI in Indonesia and the challenges faced by Indonesia with some proposed solutions for the Directorate General of Taxes for the effective implementation of the AEOI in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of increases in financial constraints measured at both firm-specific and macroeconomic level on corporate tax avoidance behaviour. Based on a hand-collected sample of 60 publicly listed firms on Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from the year 2009 to 2016, our regression result shows that firms facing increased firm-specific constraints exhibit lower cash effective tax rates ranging from 0.55 to 9.57 percent which equate to between 0.60 and 10.29 percent of operating cash flows, whereas at macroeconomic constraints do not. The firm-specific constraints result is consistent with our hypothesis and Edwards, et al. (2016), whereas macroeconomic constraints result is inconsistent. Nevertheless, its inconsistency can be caused by several factors, i.e.: (1) the change of corporate tax rate from 28 to 25 percent as fiscal policy after the impact of Global Financial Crisis 2008. It could reduce tax avoidance behaviour; (2) Indonesian Go Public Information Centre stated that the purpose of the firms’ Initial Public Offering (IPO) is not only to finance the firms’ operation due to increases in financial constraints, but also to increase firm value, improve corporate image, grow employee loyalty, maintain business continuity and get tax incentives; (3) the equity financing in Indonesia is more related to equity participation activities conducted among shareholders that’s not listed on the stock or bond markets, e.g. private placement, joint venture, mergers and acquisitions.
