This study was conducted to determine the factors that influence the behavior of taxpayer compliance through tax planning, both internal and external factors. This study used analytical method of SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) with sample consisting of 346 corporate taxpayers and tax professionals in Samarinda City as the unit of analysis. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires either directly or via Google form. The results of this study prove that internal factors have a negative effect on obedient behavior directly and have a positive effect on tax-payer compliance through tax planning. This study also proves that external factors have a positive effect on tax-payer compliance both directly and through tax planning. Therefore, it can be concluded that the motivation for tax compliance is mediated perfectly by tax planning. Meanwhile, the complexity of the taxation system and the financial condition of taxpayer compliance is partially mediated by tax planning. The results of this study imply the importance of tax planning in increasing tax payments.

This study aims to analyze the effect of functional and economic benefit on the perceived value of payment gateway, elaborate the role of perceived value, subjective norm, and behavior control on continuance intention, and identify the moderating role of usage rate on the relationship. The study employed Partial Least Squares to test the proposed model and corresponding hypotheses. Using the purposive sampling technique, the data collection was from 460 survey samples of Fintech payment gateway users in Indonesia. Analysis data used Two-step SEM, inner model, and outer model analysis. The findings showed that functional and economic benefits influence the perceived value of payment gateway. Moreover, perceived value, subjective norm, and behavioral control effects continuance intention. This study shows the importance of the moderating role of usage level on the relationship of subjective norm and perceived behavior control with continuance intention on payment gateway. This study recommends payment getaway providers to manage customer value, promote sustainable intentions, and consider usage rates to encourage subjective norms and behavioral control. Therefore, this study enables a better understanding of the Theory of Plan Behavior (TPB) and Expectation Disconfirmation Theory (EDT) in the payment gateway context.

The use of non-cash transaction, which is currently popular in the public, has made the topic of a cashless society discussed more often. A cashless society is a condition where people transact without using cash money so that it leads to the process from the conventional into the cashless society. In this condition, the involvement of each generation is needed. This study tries to investigate how each generation's perspective—both the younger generation and the older generation, toward the external factors, namely social influence, government support, and network externalities—affect their use of non-cash transactions in the form of e-wallet. The data were collected using focus group discussion (FGD) and a survey of 489 respondents. The data were analyzed using PLS-SEM. This research reveals how different generations have a different perspective on e-wallet and the government support has a more significant influence on the older generation than the younger generation, who tend to be more influenced by peers or family. However, both generations emphasized how the network externalities influenced the continuance usage in this service. This result implies the importance of e-wallet service providers to expand the network and collaborating with various actors to retain customers.

Inadequate revenue generation impedes economic growth. The issue has lacked attention from academics. Therefore, this study focuses on the relationship between revenue generation and economic growth in Nigeria. It employed time series data sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) from 1981-2018. The study used multiple regression to estimate the impact of government revenue mobilization on economic growth in Nigeria. Findings revealed that domestic debts and non-oil revenue positively and significantly impact economic growth, while external debts and oil revenue were otherwise. The study concluded that government revenue impacts economic growth. Consequently, the study recommends economic diversification through strategic programs to enhance growth rather than remaining a mono-economy. Furthermore, it recommends that the government review the existing revenue mobilization strategy– especially the diverse non-oil revenue bases to ensure improved revenue remittances. The study also recommended formulating policies that will guarantee better utilization of domestic and foreign loans to increase productivity and enhance revenue mobilization. It is also recommended that borrowing be considered a last resort to fund government projects, and where it is unavoidable, such borrowing should be limited to domestic debt.

Despite extensive research on corporate sustainability, little is known about the factors that may instill employees taking part in sustainability initiatives. To address this gap, the main objective of this study is to identify factors that can enhance employees' pro-environmental behaviors that enable them to participate in sustainability initiatives. This study posits that leadership and motivation may influence employees to develop their pro-environmental behaviors through motivation. In order to test the hypothesis of the study, the partial least square–structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach was used to examine data of 169 employees of the Thai automobile industry. The results show that ethical leadership significantly predicts employees' pro-environmental behaviors. In addition, employees' intrinsic motivation serves as a mechanism by partially mediating the relationship between ethical leadership and employees' pro-environmental behaviors. The study also investigates the relationship between extrinsic motivation with basic pro-environmental behaviors of employees, but no empirical support was found in this regard. This study recommends that organizations encourage employee intrinsic motivation to enhance their pro-environmental behaviors and focus on increasing their performance.

This study aims to determine the determinants of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Indonesia's manufacturing sector. This study uses time-series data with 40 data observations starting from the 1st quarter of 2010 to the 4th quarter of 2020. The data analysis method employed in this research was Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegration approach. The research results were that in the long run, the exchange rate and GDP growth had a positive effect, inflation had a negative effect, and gross fixed capital formation did not affect the FDI inflows in the manufacturing sector. This research implies that the government must be able to create or develop policies related to foreign direct investment to provide benefits for economic development in Indonesia. The government's efforts to control inflation have to be strengthened continuously by maintaining the availability of supply and distribution of goods. Supply continuity and smooth distribution between regions have to be further improved through the utilization of information technology and the strengthening of inter-regional cooperation. Likewise, efforts to increase economic growth have to continue to be improved by providing incentives or facilities to companies at various levels, both those that are export-oriented and those that focus on domestic sales. Â

The study sought to examine the contribution of innovation capability in strategy implementation on the firm performance of the furniture manufacturing sector in Kenya. It utilized a descriptive and explanatory research design with a population consisting of 686 managerial staff in the furniture manufacturing sector. The sample of 280 licensed firms was randomly selected by distributing questionnaires to the managers. A factor analysis was used to reduce the number of variables and establish the underlying constructs while analysis of moments of structures was applied to develop theory. It was found that innovation capability had a positive and statistically significant contribution to firm performance. The firm size and firm age were found not to have a moderating effect on the firm performance. The study provides an expansion of the conceptualization of the innovation capability framework. The findings showed that - in order to respond effectively to the business environment that has become so dynamic - firms particularly in the manufacturing sector need to find creative ways of adjusting their strategy implementation tactics in line with changes in the business environment.

Auditors are required to be professional to carry out their duties properly in examining the client's financial statements to provide benefits to the client and interested parties on the audit results. However, this professional attitude cannot be separated from the auditor's role conflict and his ability to make ethical decisions. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effect of role conflict and ethical sensitivity in improving the auditor’s performance using emotional intelligence as a moderating variable. The cluster sampling technique was used to determine the number of samples, as many as 86 auditors at the Medan City Public Accounting Firm. The data was collected using a questionnaire method. Fifty-six auditors were used for hypothesis testing and research analysis, while 30 other auditors were used to determine validity and reliability tests. This study uses a structural equation model to test the hypothesis. The results show that role conflict harms auditor performance, while ethical sensitivity increases auditor performance. On the other hand, emotional intelligence does not mediate the effect of role conflict and ethical sensitivity on auditor performance. The implication of the results of this study is the need for public accounting firms to manage internal competition between auditors so as not to lead to personal conflicts that can decrease audit quality. Public accounting firms also need to develop an ethical culture among their auditors.

This study aims to scrutinize the interplay between economic freedom and tax revenue performance in 14 SADC countries. The study makes use of dynamic panel data spanning from 2000 – 2017 with 238 year-country observations. The econometric modeling applied includes Generalized Methods of Moments and Cross-country Correlations. The dynamic panel estimation results indicate that both conventional and unconventional determinants of tax revenue mobilization are statistically significant in explaining variations in tax revenue performance. In contrast to earlier studies, the researcher found that economic freedom exhibits a negative impact on tax revenue mobilization. These findings can be based on the assumption that African countries are characterized by agrarian activities which take place in the informal sector and are thus are difficult to regulate and tax. As a result, the benefits of economic freedom cannot be fully realized. The policy implication is for African countries to invest substantially in the manufacturing sector to increase tax revenue and eliminate the substantial informal sector. Further to this, governments in SADC countries should focus more on reducing red tape and unnecessary bureaucracy to enhance the ease of doing business and realize the full benefits of economic freedom.

This study examined the effect of sectoral output volatility on economic growth and the determinants of economic growth in the Ethiopian economy. The study used annual time series data spanning from 1981 to 2018 and included capital stock, working-age population, trade balance, and sectoral output volatility as an explanatory variable. Using the Exponential General Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (EGARCH) and Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegration test, the study found a long-run relationship between economic growth and economic growth explanatory variables. From the ARDL model, capital stock and trade balance (which has been negative throughout the study period) was found to have a positive and negative significant effect on the economic growth of Ethiopia, respectively. In the long-run, volatility of industrial and service sector output growth had a negative and statistically significant effect on the economic growth of Ethiopia. In recent years the role of agriculture in the Ethiopian economy, particularly in terms of contribution to the national GDP, has been declining—indicating the growing importance of service and industrial sectors. Therefore, smoothening and maintaining the positive sectoral output growth is advisable for the betterment of the economy. Besides, balancing the foreign trade and curbing unrestricted importation is recommended as long as economic growth is concerned.
