Abstract:
To counteract tax evasion (thin-capitalization), countries across the world including Indonesia begin to apply certain rules. One of the method is to limit the amount of debt of intra-group loan transactions based on the arms length principles. However, the application of this principle to assess the fairness of the loan transaction is not smooth. The unclear set of criteria cause disputes when it is applied. This study analyzes the implementation of the criteria and the relationship among these criteria when they are used simultaneously. The findings of the study initially found that the regu

The most common self-assembly structure for A2B copolymer is the micellar structure with B/A segments being the core/corona, which greatly limits its application range. Following the principle of structure deciding the properties, a reformation in the molecular structure of A2B copolymer is made by appending three segments of a third component C with the same length to the three arms, resulting (AC)2CB 3-miktoarm star terpolymer. A reverse micellar structure in self-assembly is expected by regulating the C length and the pairwise repulsive strength of C to A/B, aiming to enrich its application

Abstract This article describes the historical development of media policy in Greenland, and the shifts in the underlying normative and causal ideas that legitimise media policy. I argue that media policy reflects changes in Greenland's political system. Specifically, under colonial rule, Greenlandic media was state run and media was seen as an instrument to educate the population. Gradually, with the introduction of home rule, a paradigm shift took place, whereby media was seen as a vital instrument to strengthen Greenlandic language and identity. At the same time, normative ideas of media in

Abstract:
The alarmingly high soft-tissue complication rates after anterior cervical surgery suggests that the design of current retractors is inadequate. A review of retractor design and consideration of new designs is worthwhile. The author reviewed the literature and the 7 described devices (Cloward, Caspar, Thompson-Farley, Tresserras, Ozer, Takayasu, and Oh devices). With the exception of Cloward/Caspar and Thomson-Farley systems, the author's search of the literature failed to disclose any independent review or investigations of the other retractors, suggesting that the use of these devices is lim

Abstract. Delay time measurements, e.g. time domain reflectometry (TDR), are a well-established method for the measurement of permittivity of various materials, especially soils. However, common measurement systems only provide one average value of the dielectric constant along the length of the TDR probe. This contribution deals with an advanced application of the TDR principle, the so-called double transmission method, for the determination of the water content of soil along a probe. To apply the advanced TDR technique, a probe, realized by a combination of a transmission line and a dielectr

Abstract:
This paper deploys Transaction Cost Economics (TCE) to elaborate on the shortcomings of ‘mainstream‘ transfer pricing in multinational firms. Departing from the notion that multinationals increasingly (re-)organize their business along multinational value chains irrespective of jurisdictional borders, this paper discusses the nature of the multinational firm and the problem of choosing the right intra-group (transfer) price. The mainstream transfer pricing approach derived from the Arm�s Length Principle (ALP) is deemed inappropriate for globally operating multinational enterprises (MNEs). Ref

The aim of this study is to demonstrate the necessity of minimizing of the conflict between the tax auditors and multinational corporations and of the inefficiencies of tax rules and the arb

Transfer pricing is a company policy in determining transfer prices to other companies, but in practice transfer pricing is done in order to avoid taxes. At present Indonesia has not been able to overcome the issue of transfer pricing because the regulations and sanctions are still unclear. Businessmen as taxpayers need legal certainty in the context of tax planning and business competition, while the government also requires legal certainty to secure revenues from the tax sector.

AbstractTransfer pricing represents the mainstream agenda in the light of tax law, lato sensu, and international taxation, stricto sensu. At the international level, there can be an emphasis on several problems related to taxation: double taxation, double non – taxation, permanent establishment, business profits, residence criteria, arm's length principle, mutual agreement procedure, dispute resolution of tax conflicts. However, the problem of transfer pricing has more profound judicial and economic implications. The main objective of this paper is to evaluate and assess the underlying feature

Abstract:
The entropy rate quantifies the amount of uncertainty or disorder produced by any dynamical system. In a spiking neuron, this uncertainty translates into the amount of information potentially encoded and thus the subject of intense theoretical and experimental investigation. Estimating this quantity in observed, experimental data is difficult and requires a judicious selection of probabilistic models, balancing between two opposing biases. We use a model weighting principle originally developed for lossless data compression, following the minimum description length principle. This weighting yi

Regrettably, the revised guidance failed to provide the opportunity for the profit-split method to be more often the most appropriate transfer-pricing method. The revised guidance expressly states that the lack of comparable uncontrolled transactions, by itself, is not a basis for the use of the profit-split method. Under the former guidance, the profit-split met

Abstract:
This essay proposes that the picture of a broken circle encountered by Watt during the second part of his tale marks a crucial collision point between Beckett's literary and mathematical interests and triggers a process of fractal scaling self-similarity. Building on recent interest concerning the role of the mathematics and mathematical forms found in Beckett's work, I argue that the broken circle depicted in the picture from Watt is a geometric form which (re)appears within at least three interlocking scales throughout Beckett's novel-length prose: (i) its moment of arrival in the picture fr
