The Impact

This paper examined the impact of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) on the level of services delivered by the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS). The paper was premised on the perceived importance and role of the online platform in the prompt payment of corporate tax as its efficiency in increasing compliance while decreasing the level of tax evasion by corporate bodies. A related challenge that is increasingly being faced by users of electronic facilities for government transaction is a lack of universal security mechanism that forms a first line of defense for such users. The objective of the paper was to examine the impact of ICT on the level of revenue generation efforts of the FIRS and the level of tax evasion in Nigeria. Technology acceptance model was used as theoretical framework of analysis. The paper adopted survey and descriptive research design to elicit responses from the study sample. Both primary and secondary sources of data were used in eliciting information needed for the study. Pearson pear product and chi-square method were used as statistical method of analysis. The major findings of the study revealed among others that application of ICT will only amount to negligible level of revenue generation. It was also revealed that the relationship between application of ICT and the level of tax compliance and acceptability is not significant. Based on the findings, the paper recommended among others, that the government and their agencies should embark on an all-important campaign for attitude and behavioral change with regards to encouraging people in the business world to perceive tax as an obligation to the state and not just a yearly ritual that must be embarked upon by them.

The Impact

This paper examined the impact of the Federal government of Nigeria’s tax amnesty programme tagged “Voluntary Asset and Income Declaration Scheme (VAIDS) on tax administration in Nigeria.  This task is premised on the global reality of governments facing challenges funding developmental projects and other government paraphernalia due to paucity of funds as a result of tax evasions and tax avoidances. In most developing countries such as Nigeria, this tax evasions and avoidances have serious repercussion on the economic growth and development strides of the nation. To avert this menace, the federal government of Nigeria in line with some other countries of the world, created a tax amnesty window called Voluntary Assets and Income Declaration Schemes (VAIDS) to beat tax defaulters at their game and boost revenue generation towards generating the needed funds for developmental projects. For the purpose of this examination, data were generated through the secondary sources of data collection and analyzed with the content analysis. From the analysis, the paper found among others that VAIDS has impacted positively on revenue generation by expanding taxpayer’s data base and also enhanced the identification of tax defaulters. However, poor adoption of information and communication technology (ICT) and the inadequate publicity among others are the constraining factors to VAIDS achievement of its US$1bn target. Based on the findings, the paper recommends among others, proper institutionalization of ICT in data management for tax registration, assessment and collection processes and enforcing the penalties associated with not complying with VAIDS mercy window.

Practical Implications

This paper studies whether and how information and communication technology (ICT) changes self-construal and cultural values in a developing country. Ethiopian children were given laptops in the context of an ICT for development scheme. We compared children who used laptops (n = 69) with a control group without laptops (n = 76) and a second control group of children whose laptop had broken down (n = 24). Results confirmed that after 1 year of laptop usage, the children’s self-concept had become more independent and children endorsed individualist values more strongly. Interestingly, the impact of laptop usage on cultural values was mediated by self-construal (moderated mediation). Importantly, modernization did not “crowd out” traditional culture: ICT usage was not associated with a reduction in traditional expressions (interdependent self-construal, collectivist values). Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

A Company

Nowadays technology is developing very fast, including information and communication technology. For that we need fast steps in following it. Information and communication technology has entered all aspects of life, including the business world. This is because the work assisted by information technology can minimize errors and even losses that will occur. Warna Print is a company engaged in the printing sector, which serves banner designs and banner printing and is currently facing problems in the field of ordering. The banner ordering system used in Warna Print is still done conventionally. For example, in recording orders, making order invoices to taking orders and transaction reports, they still rely on recording on notes. This of course can cause loss or damage to the order data and sales transactions. With the design of this application will be able to help expedite the transaction process on Color Print. The design of this application uses the Netbeans IDE with the Java programming language and the MySQL database program. This application has guaranteed security, because only owners and employees who have a username and password can access this application. In addition, the error rate in recording orders is very small, because each customer receives a different transaction number, so as to minimize errors on the transaction report.
