Flypaper Effect of Regional Expenditures in Yogyakarta

Abstract

One of the consequences as a result of the implementation of regional autonomy is that local governments must have sufficient financial resources to pay their autonomy government. The financial capacity of local governments would determine the ability of local governments to perform the functions of government. Considering Article 5 of Law No. 33, 2004, sources of regional revenue are regional revenues, balance funds/ transfers and financing. When local revenue comes from the transfers, the stimulation of expenditure is different from the stimulation that arises from local revenue (especially local taxes). This study focuses on identifying the flypaper effect on expenditure areas and its classification with samples of five districts and cities in Yogyakarta during 2006-2015. This paper argued that during the period among flypaper did not occur in the expenditure area and sub expenditure areas. In addition, flypaper found only in capital expenditure, while expenditure is not a suspect. Keywords: flypaper, autonomy and fiscal needs, local autonomy, Yogyakarta

Intergovernmental Transfers Reduction Policy and Flypaper Effect: Case of Covid-19 Pandemic in Indonesia

“…The presence of intergovernmental transfer reduction policy to local government in 2020 makes this study evaluates the spending response of the local government compared to private income. Hence this study is different from prior researches in Indonesia (Ahmad, Mattalatta, Zainal, Nasirin, & Kurniawan, 2021), (Tanjung, et al, 2021), (Wulandari, Mulyanto, & Riyanto, 2019), (Nugroho, 2017), (Siregar & Badrudin, 2017), which use the second generation theory of flypaper effect, especially the dependence rate of local to central government. These studies only see flypaper effect from the perspective of an increase in unconditional transfer and assume the same thing when there is a decrease.…”

Fenomena Flypaper Effect Pada Provinsi Yang Mengalami Pemekaran Di Indonesia

“…berdasarkan hal tersebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa tidak terjadi fenomena flypaper effect di provinsi yang mengalami pemekaran di Indonesia. Hasil penelitian ini tidak sejalan dengan penelitian terdahulu (Langer & Korzhenevych, 2019;Goeminne, 2017;Kusuma, 2017;Armawaddin et al, 2017;Nugroho, 2017). Namun demikian, hasil penelitian ini mendukung penelitian terdahulu yang menjelaskan tidak terjadi flypaper effect pada pemerintah kota di Indonesia (Purbarini dan Masdjojo, 2015).…”

“…Fenomena flypaper effect terjadi apabila peningkatan belanja pemerintah lebih besar dipengaruhi oleh peningkatan dana perimbangan daripada peningkatan PAD. Studi empiris menjelaskan fenomena flypaper effect terjadi di berbagai wilayah, seperti di Jerman (Langer & Korzhenevych, 2019), Belgia (Goeminne, 2017), Jawa Timur (Kusuma, 2017), Sulawesi (Armawaddin et al, 2017) dan Yogyakarta (Nugroho, 2017). Namun ada juga penelitian terdahulu yang tidak menemukan adanya fenomena flypaper effect pada pemerintah kota di Indonesia (Purbarini dan Masdjojo, 2015).…”

Apakah fenomena flypaper effect asimetris terjadi pada kebijakan belanja pemerintah daerah?

“…Kemudian, beberapa penelitian juga mengangkat tema flypaper effect dengan menggunakan data level provinsi. Menggunakan data level provinsi tahun 2016-2018, Fadilah & Helmayunita (2020 menemukan bahwa Dana Alokasi Khusus (DAK) tidak berpengaruh terhadap besaran belanja pemerintah daerah. Sementara itu, menggunakan data level provinsi periode 2013-2018 Utami & Iskandar (2020) justru menyimpulkan bahwa tidak ada fenomena flypaper effect pada kinerja belanja pemerintah provinsi.…”

“…Sementara itu, menggunakan data level provinsi periode 2013-2018 Utami & Iskandar (2020) justru menyimpulkan bahwa tidak ada fenomena flypaper effect pada kinerja belanja pemerintah provinsi. Selain penelitian-penelitian yang telah disebutkan masih banyak lagi penelitian-penelitian mengenai fenomena flypaper effect pada belanja pemerintah per provinsi (lihat Fikri, 2020;Rudi, 2018;Yacoub & Lestari, 2019).…”
