Income from the tax sector is generally the main income for all countries in the world in order to finance its activities. Increased revenue from the tax sector is often hampered, due to the large tax evasion and tax avoidance activities. Tax evasion and tax avoidance practices are triggered by the practice of low tax rates and other facilities provided by the tax heaven countries. In order to combat tax evasion and tax avoidance, the approach taken by each country is different. But basically approach done can be distinguished on soft apporach and hard approach. One approach that is classified as a soft approach is a tax amnesty program. In 2016 the Government of Indonesia is implementing a tax amnesty program based on Law Number 11 of 2016 concerning Tax Amnesty applied from 1 July 2016 to 31 March 2017. This paper will evaluate the successful implementation of the tax amnesty program that has been implemented in Indonesia. Evaluation is based on the achievement of 3 objectives, namely the repatriation of assets from abroad, expansion of the tax base and increase in tax revenue for the short and long term. From the point of asset repatriation, the tax amnesty program is considered quite successful, because although the target of asset repatriation is not achieved, but the asset repatriation has reached 30.54% of the estimated financial assets abroad. From the point of view of the expansion of the tax base, the number of declarations and repatriation reaches Rp. 4,737.56 trillion has exceeded the target. Meanwhile, from the point of view of increasing short-term tax revenues, the objective of the amnesty program can be considered quite successful, because it contributes 10.15% to the average amount of tax revenue in 2016 and 2017, although it has not been able to raise the growth rate of overall tax revenue for the year 2016 and 2017. Increased tax revenues for the long term can not be evaluated, because the tax amnesty program was completed 1 year ago.

The study interrogates the relationship between educational level and tax compliance in Nigeria. The study employs the ex post facto research design to ascertain how government investment in education enhances tax compliance. The study covers 17 years (2002-2018) for both tax revenue (a surrogate for tax compliance) and education expenditure (a surrogate for educational level). From the empirical results, the study concludes that there is a positive nexus between government expenditure on education and tax revenue. The study, therefore, recommends that as a matter of necessity, the government should invest more in the overall educational demand of her citizens not only from tax revenues but from other oil and non-oil sources. The governments, from the federal and state levels, should act as a matter national priority endeavour to meet up with the international budgetary benchmark allocation for education, as recommended by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in its Education for All (EFA) document 2000-2015. This will give Nigerians more access to quality education that would result in moving up the global ranking in HDI with its resultant benefits.

AbstractThough tax amnesties (TAs) are considered as a policy tool to increase revenue for governments, they have generated some puzzles. To solve the puzzles of TA we should not ignore the behavioural aspects of delinquent taxpayers. In this paper, we focus on a relatively neglected but important area of the TA literature. Considering that people who participate in tax amnesty policy (TAP) may not honestly report the whole amounts of evaded tax, thus they commit a secondary tax evasion. We indicate that even considering the risk of abstaining from TA and incurring possible uncertainty of tax evasion penalties, participating in a TA provides a higher level of utility for the delinquent taxpayers. Also, due to a secondary tax evasion usually accompanying with TA, we show that during the initial assessment period of a TAP the tax revenue drastically increases and when the assessment period is approaching the tax revenue stably declines and ultimately converges to a fixed value. Furthermore, we show that if delinquent taxpayers participate in the TAP and the penalties are larger than the expected tax revenue of the government, it increases the tax revenue without reducing the welfare of other taxpayers, so as to achieving Pareto improvement.

The background of this research is the contribution of tax revenue from the Small Micro and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) sector which is still less than the national tax revenue although the amount of tax revenue from the UMKM sector continues to grow. This condition occurs after the government issued special tax rates for MSMEs through Government Regulation Number 46 of 2013 and most recently amended through Government Regulation Number 23 of 2018. The sources of this research are the MSMEs taxpayers in Tegal City, Tegal Regency, and Brebes Regency which consist of industry players, store building owners, food stall owners, transportation service actors, workshop owners, gold shop owners, and fishing tool shop owners. This research was made using a qualitative research design with a qualitative descriptive approach. The conclusion obtained from this research is that MSMEs tax compliance is influenced by the determinants of the modernization of the taxation system (e-System), the financial condition of taxpayers, financial records, service from tax officers, the level of tax awareness, transparency of information on the use of tax results, the level of understanding of taxpayers. Taxes, tax systems, tax sanctions, and annual tax return forms. The theoretical benefit of this research is that it can be used as a reference in the development of further research, increasing knowledge about the theory related to tax compliance and the factors that affect the level of compliance of MSMEs in carrying out their tax obligations. The practical benefit of this research is that it can provide input for the Government to design regulations that can be understood by all levels of society and supported by simple and applicable instruments.

<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>
