Abstract

The purpose of this research was to test several psychological and cultural theme variables towards tax compliance. This research will present the study about four independent variables: Machiavellianism, perception on tax administration, religiosity, and love of money towards the tax compliance. Data were collected using five sections, 47 questions by using a questionnaire. The population in this research is the individual taxpayer working as an employee in Bandung City. 100 samples were selected, using simple random sampling. The results were then analysed using multiple regressions analysis. The results showed that perception on tax administration and religiosity positively affect tax compliance, while other variables do not significantly affect tax compliance. The regression coefficient sign shows no contradiction with underlying theory. The overall model was considered fit, with all independent variables explaining 22.4% of dependent variables.
