The Relationship

Taxpayers are an important factor in the self-assessment system. The peer effect is one of the ways to gain taxpayers’ compliance. This study tries to explore the relationship between peer’s information and tax decisions on individual taxpayers. This study is based on experimental methods to determine the effect of information on individual behavior. The result showed that there was a significant influence between peer’s information and taxpayer decisions. Moreover, the compliance depends on what information is provided. The statistical method discovers that both filing and reporting information affect the taxpayer’s decisions. The Directorate General of Taxes can take advantage of peer’s information in conducting socialization and counseling in a segmented manner with the help of pillars of social norms. This action is expected to have an impact on individual taxpayers with the same background or level and is expected to create constant tax information in the near future.

This study examined the determinants of tax compliance behaviour under the self-assessment scheme in Nigeria. A non-random stratified sampling technique was used to evaluate taxpayer behaviour. Data was also gathered using questionnaire from three of the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria, namely South-South, South-West and North central zones respectively. The specific locations were Edo state, Lagos state, and Federal Capital Territory, Abuja resulting in 550 respondents which were analysed. The results showed that tax audit and awareness of offences and penalties had a positive and significant impact on tax compliance behaviour under the self-assessment scheme in Nigeria. Simplicity of tax administration and returns, tax knowledge and taxpayers’ integrity had a positive but not significant impact on tax compliance behaviour under the self-assessment scheme in Nigeria. The study recommends that the tax authorities should enhance the capacity of tax audit and ensure that there are sufficient tax officials to facilitate tax audit exercise, create greater awareness of the various offences and penalties through the mass media and undertake an upward review of extant penalties.

<p><em>In the last few decade, the government still faces the problem of low tax revenue. The low level of tax compliance is an issue that is often discussed. In the self-assessment system, the responsibility for fulfilling tax obligations lies in the taxpayer side then the knowledge and comprehension of taxation matter is very substantial. This study aims to identify the relationship between tax knowledge and tax compliance behavior. Furthermore, it also attempts to map the situation of tax knowledge and tax compliance behavior in Indonesian. Through statistical tests with the multiple linear regression method based on a survey involving 260 respondents at a national scale, it is found that knowledge related to tax regulations significantly has influenced tax compliance behavior. Moreover, stepwise regression has identified the two most influential factors, there are knowledge of tax objects and knowledge of tax penalties. In addition, the t-test and MANOVA test prove that the ownership of NPWP, education level, occupation, and income significantly influence the tax knowledge.</em></p>

Tax Audit

Each country can use a tax collection system that varies between countries. Basically, each country can choose one of the tax collection systems, namely between the official assessment system or the self assessment system. On the official assessment system the amount of tax payable and must be paid by the taxpayer is determined by the tax authority. Whereas in the self assessment system the amount of tax payable and must be paid will be calculated, deposited and reported by the taxpayer himself. Most countries in the world use the self assessment system. A country that applies the self assessment system will usually experience problems related to the low level of tax compliance. To increase the level of taxpayer compliance, countries that implement the self assessment system must routinely carry out tax audit actions to test the compliance of taxpayers. In order for the purpose of the tax audit to be achieved, the tax audit must be carried out effectively. Indicators that are usually used to assess the effectiveness of tax audits are compliance from taxpayers. The effectiveness of tax audits is also influenced by several factors that can generally be summarized into 7, namely: organization, organizational independence, taxpayer, tax audit quality, tax auditor, regulation, and management support. This research is intended to see whether the tax audit in Indonesia has been running effectively. The effectiveness of tax audits is evaluated by looking at whether the factors that influence the effectiveness of the tax audit have been included in the tax audit in Indonesia. This research is a library research with a statute approach, conceptual approach, and comparative approach. The results of the study show that from the evaluation of all factors that might influence the effectiveness of tax audits, organizational factors, tax auditors, regulations, and management support from the Directorate General of Taxation have met the criteria for the realization of effective tax audits in Indonesia. But the taxpayer factor, the independence of the organization and the tax audit quality have not supported the realization of an effective tax audit. Then when viewed from the level of taxpayer compliance as an indicator that shows that tax audits have been carried out effectively, tax audits in Indonesia have not been effective, because the level of compliance from taxpayers is only at 62.96% for corporate taxpayers and non-individual taxpayers employees and Compliance Ratio Submission of Annual Income Tax Returns in 2017 only reached 72.64%.

This was motivated by the growing need to increase tax revenues generation in developing countries the tax revenue as a ratio of Gross Domestic Product is below the global average and tax administration machinery has been ineffective. Data for the study were collected using a structured questionnaire from respondents registered with the state Board of Internal Revenue determined using Taro Yamene’s Statistical Formula. Descriptive and Regression Analyses were adopted for data treatment. The model summary reveals that 80.8% of the variation in Tax compliance is accounted for the variables of perception of equity and fairness, income level and level of education of the tax payers. The ANOVA Summary justifies that the independent variables have significant influence on tax compliance with f-calculated value of 233.763 being greater than the critical f-value of 0.308451 at P<0.05. The regression coefficient indicates a positive and significant relationship between perception of equity and fairness (0.260), level of education (0.103) and tax compliance. Income level (-0.055) has negative influence on tax compliance. It is recommended that tax authorities should evolve a framework that will motivate, control, sensitize and educate tax payers on voluntary compliance in Self-Assessment system.
