Assessing Willingness To Pay For Parking Fees Among Residents: Evidence From Malang City, Damas Dwi Anggoro, Aleyda Farihatus Shofwah

BISNIS & BIROKRASI: Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi dan Organisasi

This study aims to investigate the willingness to pay (WTP) for user charges imposed by the local government using an extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). Viewing the local government as a service provider, the construct of perceived value is incorporated to determine behavioral intention toward user charges, marking a novel contribution of this study to the literature. Specifically, this study analyzes (1) the effect of each TPB construct—attitude toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control (PBC)—on WTP, (2) the effect of perceived value on WTP, and (3) the indirect effect of perceived value on WTP mediated by …

The Deterrence Effects Of Tax Whistleblower Laws: Evidence From New York’S False Claims Acts, Yoojin Lee, Shaphan Ng, Terry Shevlin, Aruhn Venkat

Research Collection School Of Accountancy

In this study, we provide evidence on the effects of state tax whistleblower laws. We exploit a novel 2010 amendment to New York’s False Claims Acts (FCA) that explicitly extended whistleblower incentives to corporate income tax whistleblowers. We identify treated firms (firms exposed to New York’s FCA) using establishment-level data and descriptive analyses. Using a sample of firms exposed to New York and neighboring states, we find evidence that New York’s FCA reduced state tax avoidance. In cross-sectional tests, we find that effects are increasing in firms that grant fewer employee stock options and industry regulation, consistent with deterrence increasing …

Bridging The Gap: Local Tax Regulations And The Future Of Green Tax In Indonesia, Daffa Zulfa Yudhanto, Murwendah Murwendah

BISNIS & BIROKRASI: Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi dan Organisasi

Indonesia again ranks among the top three countries vulnerable to the impacts of climate shocks. The intensity of the risk from this phenomenon is expected to continue increasing if a change in societal behavior does not accompany it. Referring to the Environmental Protection Management Law, one of the steps that can be taken to regulate such behavior is through economic instruments, such as a green tax. The green tax will be ineffective without a coherent regulatory framework and stakeholder political will. This study analyzes the alignment of green tax regulations at the regional level and the gaps in their implementation …

Taxation's Limits, Luís C. Calderón Gómez

Northwestern University Law Review

Countless pages have been devoted to the question of why everyone should pay tax, yet its opposite has gone largely unnoticed: why should some people and organizations not pay tax? Our tax system exempts from ordinary income taxation a wide and diverse array of people and organizations engaged in significant economic activity—from parents providing childcare services for their family to consular activities and charities operating animal shelters—seemingly without a convincing explanation. Perhaps because of the dizzying diversity of tax-exempt activities, scholars and policymakers have avoided comprehensively or coherently justifying our exemption regimes.

Why Tariffs Are A Tax On American Consumers, Timothy Meyer

Cornhusker Economics

Summary

The takeaway from this article should be that tariffs are a political tool, not an economic one. They do raise prices and revenue, but not as much as advertised (by either side).

At its core, Economics is the study of how scarcity is solved. That is, how limited resources are best utilized. Time and time again, Adam Smith’s idea that the invisible hand of markets would guide us to welfare-maximizing solutions, largely through specialization and trade. It’s why most of us specialize in one career and trade our hard-earned money for goods and services instead of producing them at …

Sengketa Pajak Atas Penugasan Pemerintah Pada Perusahaan Bumn (Studi Kasus Pertamina, Pos Indonesia Dan Reasuransi Indonesia Utama), Raja Darius Sutardjo Sinaga

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

State-owned enterprises (BUMN) are legal entities which the government has more than 51% ownership. The purpose of BUMN being established is to carry out national development by seeking profits that can become income for the government as well as carrying out public activities through carrying out public services such as providing telecommunications, electricity, water, and construction of public facilities which cannot be fully fulfilled by the government. Therefore, the government hands over the completion of public services to BUMN to carry them out because of their expertise in their respective fields. In every business process carried out by a legal …

Fiscal Challenges And Budget Fy25, Asim Bashir Khan

Faculty Research - Book Chapters and Conference Papers

Pakistan economy is facing economic slowdown, inflationary pressures, losses from state-owned enterprises, and circular debt. The tax target for FY25 seems over-ambitiously high at PKR 12.97 trillion (10.45 percent of GDP). The target for non-tax revenue has been set at PKR 4.85 trillion, which is 64 percent higher than the revised estimate of FY24. A debt and deficit driven fiscal equation might not have fiscal viability, but the situation will remain unchanged until a decent tax-to-GDP benefit taxation with fair tax incidence and equitable public spending system is in place.

What Impact Did The Tcja Tax Cuts Have On The Manufacturing Sector?, Ryan Parker

Accounting Undergraduate Honors Theses

Throughout this paper I will examine positive effects the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 had on the manufacturing sector. To do this I begin by outlining the key provisions in the TCJA that directly benefit the manufacturing sector. This includes the corporate tax rate reduction from 35 percent to 21 percent, the changes to the repatriation tax for foreign funds, and the treatment for capital assets. I then analyze key metrics including pre-tax income, income tax provision, dividends, changes in retained earnings, and spending on property plant and equipment. I will show the interactions between the increase in …

How Did The Tax Cuts And Jobs Act Of 2017 Effect Small Businesses?, Jackson Pittman

Accounting Undergraduate Honors Theses

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 marked a significant overhaul of the United States tax system, promising to stimulate economic growth and enhance the competitiveness of American businesses. Amidst its broad-reaching reforms, the TCJA introduced several provisions directly impacting small businesses, aiming to alleviate their tax burdens and foster entrepreneurial activity. This thesis endeavors to evaluate the multifaceted effects of the TCJA on small businesses, examining its implications for their financial performance, investment behavior, and overall economic contribution.

Preliminary findings suggest that the TCJA has produced a generally positive result for small businesses. On one hand, reduced …

Konstitusionalitas Open Legal Policy Mengenai Kebijakan Earmarking Pajak Karbon Di Indonesia, Mahaarum Kusuma Pertiwi, Praditya Janu Wisaksono

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

The Law on Harmonization of Tax Regulation mandates government regulation to regulate the allocation of carbon tax revenue for controlling climate change. Based on Article 13 paragraph (12) and paragraph (15) letter b of the Law on Harmonization of Tax Regulation as well as the Constitutional Court's judicial review decisions regarding open legal policies and tax earmarking, this article answers questions regarding the legal construction of open legal policy options in Indonesia which confirms further delegation of carbon tax earmarking through government regulation. The government may allocate state revenue from carbon tax to control climate change. This means that carbon …

Rethinking Eisner V. Macomber, And The Future Of Structural Tax Reform, Alex Zhang

Faculty Articles

In June 2023, the Supreme Court granted the petition for a writ of certiorari in Moore v. United States, ostensibly a challenge to an obscure provision of the 2017 tax legislation. Moore’s real target is the constitutionality of federal wealth and accrual taxation, which policymakers have proposed to combat record inequality and raise revenue for social-welfare reform. At the center of the doctrinal dispute in Moore is a century-old case, Eisner v. Macomber, on which the Moore petitioners and other commentators have relied to argue that Congress has no power to tax wealth or unrealized gains—e.g., appreciation …

Corporate Tax Competition: An Examination Of National Tax Reaction Functions To Corporate Tax Rate Reductions In Other Countries, Yaw O. Awuah

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

This dissertation primarily examines tax competition at the national level, with a particular focus on the tax reaction functions of countries within the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). There are three different studies in the dissertation. The first study uses the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) as a setting to empirically examine whether members of the OECD reduced their own statutory corporate tax rates in response to the US statutory corporate tax cut ushered in by the TCJA in a process of tax competition. The second study is a non-empirical examination of tax competition and …
