Abstract

To improve services to the community and regional independence, a policy that can encourage increased regional revenues is needed. Law Number 28 of 2009 concerning regional taxes and regional levies contains new regional tax objects which are expected to increase local government revenues. This study aims to evaluate whether local tax revenues originating from new tax objects provide a significant contribution to overall local tax revenues. This research was conducted in the province of Central Java which consists of 35 autonomous regions, namely 29 regencies and 6 cities. The secondary data used are sourced from the Central Statistical Agency and the Directorate General of Balance of the Ministry of Finance for three years from 2017 to 2019. This study succeeded in finding: 1. On average in three years the land and building tax was 38,506,719,679 rupiah and its contribution to revenue local tax of 27.07 percent; 2. Revenues from the acquisition of land and building rights on average in three years amounted to 34,070,867,725 rupiah and its contribution to local taxes was 20.05 percent; 3. The average groundwater tax revenue in three years is 1,213,370,136 rupiah and contributes to local taxes 0.81 percent; 4. The total regional revenue from new tax objects on average in three years is 73,800,284,775 rupiah and contributes to regional tax revenue of 47.94 percent. From these findings, it can be concluded that local tax laws are effective in increasing local tax revenues and encouraging increased regional independence.
