Abstract

Research Originality: Using the data of export diversification index which is excluded in previous studies and most the pervious only look at the relationship between ED and GDP, excluding per capita income as basics for development. Again, previous studies results are contradictory on impact of export diversification performance. Additionally, this paper provides robust empirical evidence of a positive effect of export diversification on per capita income growth.Research Objectives: This paper has the objective to examines how export diversification (ED) increase economic growth and per capita income.Research Methods: The paper achieve its objectives using, panel least technique and co-integration test are used on time series data of 1984-2022 for ECOWAS states.Empirical Results: The paper shows that the export diversification index has a significant influence on GDP growth but inverse, however, manufacturing value-added shows weak but a positive influence on the growth per capita income. Again, the paper reveals that high skewness of ECOWAS region to primary products export which could be responsible for the low growth per capita income. The finding of this is not the volume of exported products that matters, but how dynamic is exported products.Implications: The paper therefore recommends ECOWAS countries need to develop processing capability for export that comes from endogenous sufficiency.JEL Classification: C23, F10, O47, O55

Abstract

Research Originality: This research analyzes the price-smoothing behaviors of cigarette firms across various cigarette types, firm classifications, and government policies by using quarterly data at the brand level.Research Objectives: This research aims to identify the price-smoothing tendencies of cigarette firms in Indonesia by analyzing the change in market retail price across various cigarette types and firm classifications and the impact of government policies.Research Methods: This research used quarterly market retail price survey data covering all cigarette brands available in Indonesia from March 2014 to June 2021. The System Generalized Method of Moments (System GMM) was identified as the optimal estimation method.Empirical Results: The results showed that cigarette firms in Indonesia employed price-smoothing strategies in response to implementing the tariff increase policy. Notably, substantial price increases tend to occur in December, immediately following the announcement of the tariff increase policy. Removing one of the ceiling price criteria has led to an increase in the average price of cigarettes within the specified criteria. The implementation of a minimum price had no significant impact on price changes.Implications: This study's findings suggest that to address the issue of rising smoking prevalence, the government should consider implementing a more substantial tariff increase to counteract the impact of price-smoothing.JEL Classification: H24, H31, H32, I18

Abstract

Research Originality: This research focuses on Indonesia's mineral-rich provinces and offers originality through its comprehensive analysis of the bidirectional relationship between economic growth and environmental quality, using the Environmental Quality Index (EQI). Research Objectives: This study examines the relationship between economic growth and environmental quality in the Mineral Economy Provinces of Indonesia.Research Methods: The data used in this research is secondary data from 2015 to 2022. The analysis method employed is the simultaneous equation model using Two Stage Least Squares (2SLS).Empirical Results: The results show that in model 1, economic growth is significantly influenced by exogenous variables such as the environmental quality index, energy consumption, revenue sharing funds, investment, and population. In model 2, environmental quality is significantly influenced by exogenous variables such as GDP, mining output, energy consumption, and forest. Good environmental quality can enhance economic growth. Conversely, increased Economic growth can degrade environmental quality.Implications: The study's findings suggest that policymakers in Indonesia's mineral economy provinces should prioritize sustainable development to balance economic growth with environmental preservation.JEL Classification: Q43, Q50, Q56

Abstract

Research Originality: The digital technology transfer in rural entrepreneurship is a knowledge-based solidarity socio-economic (SSE) innovation that drives regional economic growth and reduces inequality.Research Objectives: This study aims to analyze the role of digitalization technology transfer in entrepreneurship on regional economic growth, inequality mitigation, and other related resource factors.Research Methods:  The study approach model used a mixed methods design through exploratory and explanatory stages. The data were analyzed quantitatively descriptively with the standard multiple regression tool. The operational variables were measured using the Gini ratio index.Empirical Results: The results showed that digitalization technology transfer encourages regional economic growth. However, the positive role created has not reduced the negative impact and inequality. This inequality could be mitigated by the innovation of the community's social solidarity economic system (SSE). There are indications of the potential of local community wisdom to strengthen informal institutions in society.Implications: Utilizing the community's potential and the SSE model could provide added value for the community's welfare.JEL Classification: O14, O47, P25

Abstract

Research Originality: This research may suggest a deeper relationship between internal company factors and tax aggressiveness, which has not been studied explicitly. Many studies examine the influence of external factors, but this study can highlight how a company's internal financial and tax management decisions can influence tax aggressiveness.Research Objectives: This study investigates the influence of several financial factors, such as thin capitalization, financial distress, and earnings management, on tax aggressiveness.Research Methods: This study analyzed 310 data from manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange from 2019 to 2023.Empirical Results: This study found that the high thin capitalization range can reduce tax aggressiveness. Conversely, earnings management is one tool used by management to reduce tax aggressiveness, while financial distress has no impact on tax aggressiveness.Implications: The study suggests that while certain financial practices influence tax aggressiveness, broader factors such as financial stability, investor relations, and risk management also play a significant role.JEL Classification: M41, H26

Abstract

Research Originality: The adaptive market hypothesis, which is a new way to test capital market performance that reconciles the efficient market hypothesis (EMH) with behavioral finance, is the focus of our research. Our study's novelty lies in testing the efficiency of the Islamic capital market in six Asian countries: Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, and Thailand, over different periods: before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic.Research Objectives: We aim to delve into its application in the Islamic capital market, which has seen significant growth in recent years.Research Methods: We employed the variance ratio test, the ARIMA model, and the Elman neural network to test efficiency.Empirical Result: Our findings revealed that the efficiency of sharia indices in these countries was not constant over the three periods, thereby supporting the existence of the adaptive market hypothesis.Implications: The results of this study are not only important for academic discourse but also offer practical applications for investors to refine their investment strategies, engaging the audience in a discussion on Islamic capital market efficiency.JEL Classification: G02, G14, G15
