2023-10-29T17:53:41+07:00

The announcement of the New Normal implementation on June 1, 2020 is anticipated to serve as a pivotal moment poised to revitalize the previously sluggish Indonesian Capital Market during the COVID-19 Pandemic. The purpose of this study was to see whether there were differences in abnormal returns and trading volume activity between before and after the announcement of the implementation of the New Normal in Indonesia. This type of research is comparative quantitative research with an event study approach in hotel, restaurant and tourism companies. The population in this research is all company shares listed on the Indonesian capital market until 2020, totaling 711 company shares. The sample selection used purposive sampling, resulting in a research sample of 37 company shares. The observation period was carried out for 15 days, namely 7 days before, 7 days after, and 1 day of the New Normal event in Indonesia. The analysis technique uses Descriptive Statistics Test, Normality Test and Hypothesis Test. The results of the study show that there is no significant difference in abnormal returns and trading volume activity between before and after the announcement of the implementation of the New Normal in Indonesia. This proves that there is still information asymmetry between market participants regarding the announcement of the implementation of the New Normal in Indonesia which causes the market not to react to this event.

2023-10-30T18:39:25+07:00

The purpose of this study is to examine and quantify the impact of the Tri Hita Karana culture as a moderating variable on individual taxpayer compliance with the tax information system. In order to analyze secondary data, this research uses documentation and primary data obtained from the distribution of questionnaires to individual taxpayers who are enrolled at the Kantor Pelayanan Pajak Pratama Tabanan in order to get an Annual Notification Letter. Simple random sampling is used to determine the research sample using the probability sampling approach, yielding a sample of 100 distinct taxpayers. Using SmartPLS 3.3.9, the Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach is used in statistical testing to evaluate the hypothesis. The study's findings demonstrate that both the tax information system and Tri Hita Karana culture have a strong and positive impact on individual taxpayer compliance. This means that the more cultural values that guide the lives of individual taxpayers are embedded, the tendency is to increase taxpayer compliance. Additionally, Tri Hita Karana culture can act as a moderator by lessening the correlation between the two variables. Individual taxpayers do not realize that cultural values perceive important things in the use of a system, which can weaken the use of the system.

2023-10-30T18:24:11+07:00

This study aims to assess the impact of tax digitalization and taxpayer awareness on the compliance of individual taxpayers, with tax socialization serving as a moderating factor. The research involves the analysis of primary data gathered from questionnaires distributed to 100 individual taxpayers registered at the Kantor Pelayanan Pajak (KPP) Denpasar Barat, utilizing probability sampling techniques for sample selection. The study employs the Partial Least Square (PLS) method through the SmartPLS 4 application to evaluate the variables. The findings of this investigation reveal that tax digitalization significantly enhances individual taxpayer compliance. Moreover, taxpayer awareness also exhibits a positive and substantial influence on individual taxpayer compliance. Notably, tax socialization is found to strengthen the connection between tax digitalization and individual taxpayer compliance. Furthermore, it moderates the relationship by mitigating the impact of taxpayer awareness on individual taxpayer compliance. What sets this study apart is its holistic approach: while previous research has often explored the isolated impacts of tax digitalization and taxpayer awareness on compliance, our study introduces the concept of "tax socialization" as a moderating variable. This novel inclusion delves into the mechanisms by which informing and educating taxpayers about tax-related matters can influence compliance within the digitalization context.
