dc.description.abstract | Advertising tax is one of the important sources of Regional Original
Income (PAD) to support regional development financing in Medan. However,
the achievement of advertising tax revenue often does not meet the set targets.
This study aims to analyze the contribution of advertising tax to local taxes
and PAD in Medan from 2018 to 2023.
The research method used is descriptive analysis with a quantitative
approach. The data used in this study is secondary data obtained from the reports
on advertising tax and PAD realizations in Medan.
The research findings indicate that the contribution of advertising tax to
local tax and PAD (Regional Revenue) in Medan City has fluctuated, with the
highest contribution recorded in 2023 at 4.28%. Although the contribution
remains relatively modest, ranging from 1.05% to 4.28%, the advertising tax still
provides a significant source of revenue for the region. Several challenges in the
collection of advertising tax include low taxpayer awareness, complex
administrative procedures, location restrictions, and tariff increases. To address
these issues, the Medan City BAPENDA has undertaken various efforts, including
collaborations with external parties, direct tax collection, socialization campaigns,
and improvements to the administrative system to enhance taxpayer compliance
and increase advertising tax revenue. | en_US |
