Abstract

ABSTRACT Young generations are future taxpayers, future investors, future businessmen and businesswomen who will be the foundation of the country's economic system sustainability in the future. Awareness of paying taxes in the future should be a concern, especially in the scope of accounting education. This study intends to analyze the effect of normative belief on tax compliance intention. Tax literacy was also investigated as a moderating variable. Questionnaires were distributed to the young-adult age group, namely those who are still in college to those who are still in the position of entry-level taxpayers. Results show that normative belief has a significant effect on tax compliance intention, while tax literacy has also been shown to have a significant effect on tax compliance intention. Based on the results of data processing using the moderating variable test, it can be concluded that tax literacy is proven to strengthen the relationship between normative belief and tax compliance intention. The implications of this research are not only limited pragmatically to taxpayers and institutions as tax collectors. Implication of this research is primarily aimed at and will involve all stages of education, starting from primary to higher education institutions. Issues of tax awareness must be internalized, starting from a young age, so that knowledge related to tax benefits absorbed from the experience and reality of the Indonesian economy is also strengthened by tax knowledge provided in formal educational institutions. Keywords: Normative Belief, Tax Literacy, Tax Compliance Intention.
