Summary
The political reforms that occurred in 1997 have replaced the centralized government public with a decentralized public. Reforms proclaimed its three fundamental principles, namely transparency, accountability, and democracy. Regional financial management that is carried out economically, efficiently, and effectively or meets the principles of value for money and participation, transparency, accountability, and justice will be able to encourage economic growth. Development activities and the local government cannot be separated from regional financial management policies. Great fiscal authority in the era of decentralization largely determines the budget structure prepared by local governments (APBD). The substance of an APBD shows the effort or seriousness of a regional government in managing regional finances, how much potential revenue will be explored, in which direction regional spending is focused, or where the budget deficit will be financed. From the structure and portion of regional spending, it can be seen that the trend in regional expenditures is inclined towards the administration of government and government apparatus or tends to the implementation of regional development (Adelina & Roxana, 2016; Roesel, 2017)
