“…Studies that rely on legal science perspectives are carried out by other researchers with the assumption that either through the threat of fear it is possible to be examined or then subject to taxation sanctions will force the taxpayer to comply with their obligations (Allingham & Sandmo, 1972). Meanwhile, most of the research related to the relationship of increasing tax services to compliance was examined using a persuasive and cooperative approach between taxpayers and taxation authorities (Feld & Frey, 2002;Alm et al, 2010;Vossler et al, 2011;De Simone, 2013;Hauptman et al, 2014). The effectiveness of this collaboration is also influenced by the calculation of profit and loss, both on the taxpayer's side and the tax authority.…”

“…Using different empirical strategies to consider the non-randomness of the selection of firms, their empirical results showed consistently that firms receiving a letter containing the threat of an audit decreased their diesel tax credits by around 10 per cent. Hauptman et al (2014) explored the experience of taxpayers with audits and on the basis of empirical results for Slovenia found that 71.8% taxpayers were satisfied with the audit. At the same time, the authors recommended that the tax administration continue with the application of new possibilities for the purpose of strengthening the level of tax compliance.…”

“…The performance of tax administration is based on the timing and quality of the tax authorities' compliance with any established procedures, including mandatory revisions of the decisions of the tax service, or time that a taxpayer shall spend to get in touch with the tax service. There are social aspects that are also relevant, such as the average number of sick days of one staff member per year [13]. In Germany, the tax administration is assessed through performance of the staff of the tax authorities.…”
