Abstract

Fraud is a unique crime committed by many people in various activities including in the tax sector that resulted in losses to the state. A research conducted in 2015 aimed at examining the factors that influence the taxpayer compliance in paying taxes with knowledge of fraud as a moderating variable. This research used Banguntapan city taxpayers as respondents. Sample collection method in this research used the convenience sampling method. The analytical tool used is Structural Equation Model (SEM) with the help of SmartPLS software. The results of this research prove that tax sanctions, service quality, and tax penalties have a positive effect on taxpayer compliance. The results of this research also prove that taxpayer knowledge does not positively affect the taxpayer compliance and also prove that the taxpayer interaction and knowledge of fraud have a positive effect on their tax paying compliance. So the implications of this research expect that tax authorities can apply tax laws in which including sanctions and taxes penalties evenly in each level of the taxpayers and improvement of services in the field of taxation in the form of provision of information to the taxpayers.Fraud is a unique crime committed by many people in various activities including in the tax sector that resulted in losses to the state.

Abstract

This article aims at examining further the importance of productivity and effectiveness of product development in textile industry and textile products (TPT industry) in Central Java. The productivity analysis method uses the American Productivity Center (APC) model and the Mundel model. The method of analyzing the measurement of the effectiveness of new product development uses New Product Index (NPI), Feature Function Index (FFI), and Time to Market Index (TMI). Data input is used for the purposes of this analysis, especially input of labors, capital, materials and energy, and data output of production of the TPT industry studied. The result of research shows that based on productivity analysis both with APC and Mundel methods, the productivity decreased except only in the Capital input variable which productivity level did not decrease. Based on the Mundel model, in more detail the decrease in productivity levels occurs in workers + 1 Foreman, sales worker, production worker, and manager worker. Furthermore, the new product development is also not effective yet, and the best strategy to be chosen in developing new products in new markets is diversification strategy. The implication of this research is that the TPT Industry in Central Java still has to continuously improve its productivity and improve the development of new products effectively using diversification strategy.This article aims at examining further the importance of productivity and effectiveness of product development in textile industry and textile products (TPT industry) in Central Java.

Abstract

This research is designed to empirically investigate the determinants of Islamic rural banking financing in Indonesia after 2008 global financial crisis covering period 2009.1-2014.12. The methods applied in this research are Error Correction Model (ECM) and VAR/VECM. The results of ECM model demonstrate that the variable third party funds (DPK) and non-performing financing can significantly affect Islamic rural banking financing both in the short run and long run, while Return on Asset (ROA) and Profit-and-loss sharing does not have a significant influence. Islamic rural bank financing, however, was influenced by inflation and exchange rate as the proxy of macroeconomic variables in the short and long run. Furthermore, Impulse Response Function (IRF) and variance decomposition results show that Profit-and-loss sharing (PLS) has the largest positive impact to financing (39.08%), followed by third party fund (19.6%) and inflation (8.9%). While, the variables that contribute to reduce financing are non-performing financing (9.02%), followed by ROA (7.76%) and exchange rate (2.48%).

Abstract

Import becomes one of the components to calculate economic growth. During 1981-2014, a series of variation in Indonesia import has occured. In addition, the increase of GDP, the occurrence of domestic economic shocks, the increase of inflation rate, the increase of population and the increase of total reserves were alleged to influence the variation of Indonesia import. This research aims to analyze the factors affecting Indonesia imports. The variables used in this research are GDP growth, domestic economic shocks, inflation rate, population, and total reserves. Econometric analysis model used in this research is Error Correction Model (ECM). The results of this research reveal several outcomes: (1) the data is stationary at first difference; (2) the data is cointegrated meaning that there is a connection in long-term parameters; and (3) ECT coefficient/speed of adjustment is -0.6881 and significant is at ? = 5% meaning that the model used is valid. The conclusions of this research are: (1) In the short term, domestic economic shocks, inflation rate, population, and total reserves have a significant effect on the Indonesia import; (2) In the long term, inflation rate, population, and total reserves have a significant effect on Indonesia import.

Abstract

Public procurement issues have drawn many concerns and became a public debate because the rules and regulations are constantly reformed and restructured. Public procurement contributions in the world economy are very significant. In Indonesia, according to the Ministry of Finance, public procurement spending for 2009 was 33.4 percent of total government spending. This study aims to determine implementation practices of Public Procurement Plans or Rencana Umum Pengadaan (RUP) in Bitung City. The multiple statistical regression equation is used to process data from 47 respondents from regional apparatus task forces (SKPD) and the results show that the influence of independent variables (X) on dependent variable (Y) is 87.3 percent (R2), while 12.7 percent is influenced by other factors. The result of F-test shows 36.231 F- table  3.21. The calculated probability value is 0.000 which is smaller than 0.05. The partial test (t-test) from 9 independent variables (X) identifies 7 variables that have significant effects on the scores of RUP implementation (Y). The overall results of t-test show that the implementation practices of public procurement plans have significant effects of the higher compliance rates on the output of goods and services.

Abstract

The developments of the world trade requires the improvement of the competitiveness of products, including agricultural commodities. At the regional level, Indonesia’s agricultural commodities face the ASEAN free market competition. This study aims to identify and examine the competitiveness of Indonesian exports of several agricultural commodities in the international market by employing the index of competitiveness of trade specialization by trade specialization index (TSI), and the index of market penetration, by revealed comparative advantage (RCA). This study observed the HS 4 digit agricultural commodities, along 2011-2015. The study finds that the index of commodity trade specialization of estate crops sub-sector is in a stage of maturation of the world trade, or it has a very strong competitiveness. The food crops sub-sector stand on the introduction stage of the world trade or it has low competitiveness, or in other words, Indonesia is a net importer of the sector commodities. Although some of commodities have the strong competitiveness, but on the other hand, they do not have a strong comparative advantage. This is shown by the RCA value that less than 1. It means that a part of agricultural commodities, namely food crops, horticulture and estate, are still import oriented.The developments of the world trade requires the improvement of the competitiveness of products, including agricultural commodities.

Abstract

This study examines determinants of household food security among the poorest households in Kalibawang, Yogyakarta. The Sustainable Livelihood Framework (SLF) is an approach that we use to explain how the poorest in the rural area in facing the vulnerability due to the coping food problem affected by the El Nino phenomenon by using their assets. To analyze factors in influencing food security for poor households in the village, we consider using determinants of household assets (human capital, financial capital, physical capital, natural capital and social capital), income, dummy employment, and many family members. Also, the sources of data for this study are cross section primary data from 125 poorest households, which are obtained by the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) and personally administered questionnaire methods. For further analysis, we used Coping Strategies Index (CSI) as a food security indicator, and Ordinary Least Square (OLS) is a method to explain the influence of determinants. Based on the analysis, the results indicate the factors that have an impact on the poorest household food security are the female education, financial, physical, and social capital, as well as employment status.Meanwhile, the head of household education, natural capital, and income have no effect on food security among poorest in the rural area.
