The government, through the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu), has introduced a new calculation formula for Income Tax Article 21 (PPh21) with the implementation of the Average Effective Rate (TER). This policy will take effect starting from January 2024.
This project was client-based, which means that all the designs built with the team must be approved by the client before we hand them over to the developers. Here are the details of the features:
Before we start designing, the critical thing we need to understand is how it works. So, I decided to take a tour and learn about the new procedure for tax calculation. Here’s the new formula:
The government claims that the new formula of calculation is simpler than the old one, but many people still don’t understand how to do it. Below is the step-by-step flow on how to perform calculations and generate reports with TaxKita.
Our concern is how to present a large amount of input and make it easy to understand for the user so they can easily calculate taxes seamlessly. For the first phase, we will focus on development for desktop devices. Development for the mobile version will be carried out in the next phase.
We conducted testing using Maze involving five people from the finance and operational divisions in our office. We asked them to try the TaxKita design. The results showed a 100% success rate for every task given to them.
Based on the test results above, it shows a 100% success rate for every task given to the user. Some users may need more time to complete tasks, but ultimately, they can still accomplish all of their tasks, which indicates the success of the design. Our clients have also reviewed and approved this design work, and we’re ready to enter the development phase.
