This study aims to identify the impact of taxpayer’s realization of the determinants of applying value added tax on tax awareness in the Saudi Arabia and applied early in 2018. In the light of reviewing the related studies, VAT system, and VAT implementing regulation, a questionnaire about VAT determinants was designed and disseminated to 88 VAT payers in Tabuk region. After analyzing data, this study revealed that applying VAT can be affected by a group of determinants (tax rate, compulsory registration limit, fines, payments, accounting basis, payment method, tax self-censorship, organizational structure of tax administration, learning and training, voluntary registration. This study also revealed that there is a statistically significant effect of taxpayer’s realization of legislation determinants (tax rate, compulsory registration method, fines, payments) and technical determinants (accounting basis, payment method, tax self-censorship) on tax awareness. In light of study results, we recommend to increasing tax knowledge attention, expanding its tools at all school education stages, and increasing the expansion of tax knowledge and dissemination culture at the higher education stage to increase tax awareness.


When GST was implemented in India in the year 2017, there was a sea of change in the way in which tax was collected. In the Distribution process where there was different levels of partners involved there was collection of taxes in different stages which was followed till the implementation of GST. In this case study in order to familiarize the students with the evolution of the GST system and the impact of it on the channel partners we are looking at the case of Mr.Kumar , he had started his distribution agency Pitambar Distributors in 1986 the tax structure for a distributor in India had - value added tax, octroi and service tax .In 2006 the first step towards the implementation of GST - Goods and Services Tax was taken which became a reality and came into being by July 2017.The Post GST Scenario changed the playing field for FMCG companies which automatically reflected on their channel members namely distributers like Pitamber Industries. In this context with the data available from Pitambar agencies in the past year Mr.Kumar has to now rethink his strategies and decide whether to continue in the same business or not. This case can be used to identify the impact of GST on The FMCG Sector, Chart the progress of GST till date, to familiarize students regarding distribution processes and the implication of GST on the same, to identify impact on sales of different category of FMCG products after the implementation of GST

Pricing is a complex process that is influenced by many factors, which companies must constantly take into account when creating prices. The final selling price is formed by various influences, including the impact of value added tax (VAT). This tax affects all final consumers, but it also affects the businesses themselves in setting their sales prices. The main goal of this paper is to analyze the impact of VAT on pricing and to prove the fact that VAT values affect both the payer and the non-payer of VAT, if they buy from the VAT payer. The purpose is to point out the difference in the selling price between these two entities and thus to prove the influence of VAT on their pricing. In this paper, the methods of induction and deduction were used, as well as methods of analysis and synthesis. Based on the performed analyzes, we proved the influence of VAT on the pricing of both the payer and the non-payer of VAT, while the difference is observable in the amount of their selling price and tax liability.

AbstractIntegrated economic models have become popular for assessing climate change. In this paper we show how these methods can be used to assess the impact of a discard ban in a fishery. We state that a discard ban can be understood as a confiscatory tax equivalent to a value-added tax. Under this framework, we show that a discard ban improves the sustainability of the fishery in the short run and increases economic welfare in the long run. In particular, we show that consumption, capital and wages show an initial decrease just after the implementation of the discard ban then recover after some periods to reach their steady-sate values, which are 16–20% higher than the initial values, depending on the valuation of the landed discards. The discard ban also improves biological variables, increasing landings by 14% and reducing discards by 29% on the initial figures. These patterns highlight the two channels through which discard bans affect a fishery: the tax channel, which shows that the confiscation of landed discards reduces the incentive to invest in the fishery; and the productivity channel, which increases the abundance of the stock. Thus, during the first few years after the implementation of a discard ban, the negative effect from the tax channel dominates the positive effect from the productivity channel, because the stock needs time to recover. Once stock abundance improves, the productivity channel dominates the tax channel and the economic variables rise above their initial levels. Our results also show that a landed discards valorisation policy is optimal from the social welfare point of view provided that incentives to increase discards are not created.

Research background: After more than a year of the Covid-19 pandemic, we can investigate whether it caused a shock to the global economy, pushing for deglobalization, or on the contrary, it was a challenge for digital globalization and digital transformation of economies. Through this research we join the research contributions that examine the process towards digital globalization that characterizes the world economy, its impact on businesses, consumers, and governments. We also discuss the challenges posed by the crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic to globalization and perhaps the acceleration of the digital transformation of economies. Purpose of the article: The aim of this research is to highlight the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the age of digital globalization. Methods: Documentary analysis, as the main research method, is doubled by a case study that allows us to highlight the specific characteristics of digital globalization. Findings & Value added: The findings of the research allowed us to highlight the essential aspects of digital globalization that were perhaps exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, but which contribute greatly to understanding the phenomenon of globalization. Our research also reveals four lessons learned in the COVID-19 pandemic. We also present some considerations regarding the globalization after the health crisis.

The article discusses the problem of the reducing life quality of Russians in the new conditions of the market economy. The Russian phenomenon of the use of “palm oil” as a priority raw material in food production is analyzed against the decrease in its use in the EU countriesand against the expansion of the daily diet of the Chinese due to increased dairy food consumption. Opposing points of view of key industry associations (the Dairy Union of Russia and the Fat and Oil Union of Russia) have been identified and are presented in the context of palm oil use in dairy food production. The results of a statistical study of the demand for palm oil from Russian importers against the background of an increase in the value-added tax rate from 10 to 20% in October 2019 are presented. The data of customs statistics on palm oil imports were analyzed in the context of countries of origin, nine codes of the commodity nomenclature of foreign economic activity, months and years within the five-year period of 2016–2020, as well as in the context of the importing regions of Russia. The results of statistical processing of data by the Federal Customs Service revealed no effect of the sharp increase in the VAT rate on the volume of palm oil imports. The analysis of foreign statistics revealed a significant presence of actors in the chemical industry among transnational companies that are the largest consumers of palm oil. The model of entrepreneurial behavior based on consumption in palm oil production, formed and widely spread in the Russian food industry market, is criticized. 98% of palm oil and its fractions imported into Russia goes to the needs of food industry enterprises, and the authors consider that the foreign ownership of these enterprises plays an important role. In the authors’ opinion, in many respects, the latter fact determined our country’s ranking first in the food chemistry sector in the distribution of published patent applications by technology field for the top 10 origins in 2014–2016. In this respect, Russia is far ahead of China, the USA, Japan, South Korea, Germany, the UK,France, and Switzerland. In China, systematic research is being carried out on the ratio of palm oil use in the food (primarily, instant noodles, other fast food) and non-food (chemical industry, including cosmetics production) sectors.

The relevance of the impact of tax complexity on tax noncompliance justifies the study of tax complexity in the scope of several taxpayers, including local authorities. This chapter analyses the case of the value added tax (VAT), a typical example where the misuse of exemptions and no subjections imply the no payment of taxes by citizens. Therefore, this chapter tries to assess, qualitatively and quantitatively, the levels of tax complexity perceived in local authorities' administrations through the amount of binding tax information those organizations request. The results suggest a high degree of perception of tax complexity and uncertainty as well as a lack of transparency associated with the tax framework of the activities of local authorities. It is pointed out that the perceived complexity is essentially legal. Moreover, the findings establish a relation between some more complex legal changes with great tax impact within these entities and the increase of the number of binding tax information requested on their subjects.
