Abstract:
Since the local government of Lwakhakha Town Council has a variety of problems, the study evaluated tax understanding and its effects on the public sector. The primary goal of the research was to determine how knowledge about taxes affects collecting tax revenues. To evaluate the impact of tax knowledge on collecting revenue, the investigator used experimental and interpretative quantitative technique. The investigation's subject is carefully chosen. To gather data, the research effort was using an organized survey instrument. The study's conclusions show that appropriate tax education improves conformity. Tax education raises technical expertise required to calculate a taxpayer's obligation for taxes as well as their understanding of tax laws. Numerous factors, including the level of understanding of individual tax payers as a result of learning about taxes, affect tax mobilisation. These variables include the technical proficiency of the person who is the taxpayer in their tax affairs and their knowledge of the applicable tax laws and consequences (penalties, fines, and indictments).
