This study aims to determine the factors that influence the number of domestic and foreign tourist visits and to measure the value of willingness to pay for the benefits of tourism objects in Banda Aceh by using the Travel Cost Method Approach. The type of data used is primary and secondary data. Primary data obtained by non-probability sampling, obtained as many as 30 domestic tourists and foreign tourists as many as 30 people, with the method of analysis of ordinary least square (OLS). Secondary data was obtained from the Central Statistics Agency, Tourism Office and other study literature. The results showed that for domestic tourists, the independent variables on travel costs, alternative costs, time costs, and income had significant effect on the number of domestic tourist visits with an R² value of 0.690. In foreign tourists, the independent variables of travel costs, alternative costs, and income have a significant effect on the number of visits, while the cost of time has no effect on the value of R² 0.693. The average value of WTP of foreign tourists is greater than that of domestic tourists, namely domestic tourists with a WTP of 4,000,000 rupiahs while foreign tourists are 217,000,000 rupiah. Given the large contribution of tourism to the economic conditions in Indonesia, especially in Aceh, the government should maintain and pay attention to the conditions of tourism objects and improve tourism facilities so that tourists reach the maximum level of utility so that it will increase the value of PAPs.

AN ANALYSIS OF COMPARISON OF REGIONAL BUDGET MANAGEMENT IN PIDIE REGENCY BEFORE AND AFTER THE FORMATION OF THE NEW ADMINISTRATIVE REGION.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the comparison of budget management before and after the formation of the new administrative region in Pidie Regency. The data used for this study were the total value of Gross Regional Domestic Product (PDRB) toward constant price, total population and investment obtained from the Financial and Asset Management Board (BPKAD) and Central Statistics Agency of Pidie for the period 2002-2016. The analysis method used in this study was multiple linear regression with the ordinary least square (OLS) method and a dummy variable to distinguish the effect before and after the formation of new administrative regions. The results showed that the investment the BRDP affected locally-generated revenue (PAD), while the number of the population has an adverse effect on PAD. There was the negative difference on PAD before and after the formation of the new administrative region. On the contrary, the variables of BRDP, number of population, and the investment have a significant influence on PAD in Pidie Regency. The government must be more careful in budgeting how much it costs to realize all the income it receives so that it can be seen whether the revenue collection activities are efficient or not. This needs to be done because even though the regional government has succeeded in realizing revenue receipts according to the targets set, the success is less significant if it turns out that the costs incurred to realize the revenue target are greater than the realization of the income it receives.
