Abstract

Fiscal discipline is the key value to manage public finance. In term of local government, maintaining fiscal discipline can improve basic services and public confidence provision. The research purpose is to give an input for the government to determine regional expansion policy. The analysis applies fixed effect model to analyze the relationship between vertical fiscal balance and local fiscal discipline in 491 districts/cities in Indonesia for 2010 to 2020. This study found the indication that the lower vertical fiscal balance, the lower the fiscal discipline of the district/city governments to collect local taxes, so regional development highly depends on intergovernmental transfer. The results indicate that the increase of vertical fiscal balance will increase local fiscal discipline. In addition to be driven by a vertical fiscal balance, local fiscal discipline increase is also driven by population density increase, the tertiary sector share, and Gross Regional Domestic Product per capita. It is important for the governments to consider vertical fiscal balance, population density, the share of the tertiary sector, and GRDP per capita, as variables to approve proposed regional expansion so that each regional expansion results in optimal public services.Keywords: Vertical Fiscal Imbalance, Local Own-Source Revenue, Population Density, Tertiary Sector Share, Gross Domestic Regional Product.

Abstract

Infrastructure development is considered as a locomotive that accelerates the pace of the economy in a region. The success of the development process is generally measured by economic growth. This study aims to analyze the effect of road infrastructure development on the economic growth of districts/cities in East Java and identify differences in the economic growth of East Java districts/cities before and after road infrastructure development. To answer the first research objective, panel data regression was used in 38 districts/cities in East Java with the dependent variable being economic growth, and the independent variable measuring the availability of infrastructure. Furthermore, to answer the second research objective, paired t-test was used. Road infrastructure, as well as government spending on public services and capital were found affecting economic growth at a decreasing rate. Tax revenue found to boost economic growth, implying that tax still one of the main instrument driving growths. Lastly, during the development of infrastructure, no significant difference has been found in economic growth. Indicates that the development effect on growth is a long-term effect. The results contribute to the discussion regarding the determinants of regional economic growth and how development can affect the economic growth of one or more regions. Keywords: Economic Growth, Infrastructure, East Java.
