A primary financial sources of the government is the individual tax system. This system is based on the voluntary compliance by the taxpayers. Their level of compliance, however, is reported to be deteriorating. There are frequently cited factors related to the deterioration including taxpayer's income level, tax rates, degree of taxpayer's confidence in the government, age, perceived fairness of tax administration, tax audit rate, tax ethics, and the influence of noncompliant peers.
The purpose of this research was the effect to the tax compliance consciousness of the recognition of the taxpayer's taxation system. This study employed taxpayer's propensity to evade, attitude to the regulation, and self assessed penalty magnitudes as surrogates for tax avoidance judgements
This study used the following Methodologies
First, A survey was conducted to analyze taxpayer's consciousness of tax compliance using the Taxation system recognition degree. Taxpayer's characters was sex, age, education level, income level, to residence form and income source. Taxation system recognition degree was fairness of taxation system, complexity of taxation laws, complexity of taxation official reports, fitness of tax rates, confidence of government expenditure and rationality of tax audit and administrative measures
Second, The data collected using question form. The data were used to regression analysis where the estimated amount of tax compliance was used as a dependent variables. The factor analysis was conducted by the important factors that can be used as independent variables.
By the results of this study suggest following conclusions which con help the further discussions. As taxpayers's income level increased, propensity to evade decreased attitude to regulation became compliance, and self assessed penalty magnitude increased. This suggests that low income class takes resistant attitude toward tax administration. with regard to tax rates, as income tax rates increased, propensity to evade increased, taxpayer's attitude to regulation became resistant, and self assessed penalty magnitude decreased. The conclusions support the idea that tax rate policy has a beneficial effect on maintaining high tax compliance rates.
Concerning the quality of governments confidence, as a degree of public confidence in the government increased, propensity to evade decreased, attitude to regulation became compliance, and self assessed penalty magnitude increased. One implication for this result is that to keep high compliance rate and be achieved by the efforts of entire government.
