[Tesis ini meneliti tentang faktor-faktor yang menentukan arus masukpenanaman modal asing langsung di negara-negara maju dan negara-negaraberkembang dengan menggunakan analisa data panel. Penelitian ini menggunakandata 27 negara maju dan 43 negara berkembang selama periode 1998 sampaidengan 2011. Variabel bebas yang digunakan adalah arus masuk penanamanmodal asing per kapita. Sebagai variabel penjelas utama adalah tarif pajakpenghasilan perusahaan. Sedangkan sebagai variabel penjelas tambahan adalahproduk domestik bruto per kapita, tingkat keterbukaan perdagangan, upahminimal riil, populasi dan produksi energy.Berdasarkan pengukuran menggunakan random effect model diperoleh hasilbahwa pajak berpengaruh negative terhadap arus investasi asing namun tidaksignifikan. Selain itu, jumlah populasi, upah minimum serta produksi energy jugaberpengaruh negatif. Sebaliknya, PDB per kapita dan tingkat keterbukaanperdagangan berpengaruh positif terhadap arus masuk penanaman modal asing;This study investigates the determinants of foreign direct investment inflowsin developing and developed countries by panel data analysis. This study utilizesdata of 27 developed countries and 43 developing countries for the period of 1998to 2011. The dependent variable is FDI inflows per capita. The main explanatoryvariable is the statutory corporate income tax rate. In addition, this study employsGDP per capita as the proxy of market size, degree of openness, real minimumwage as the proxy of labor cost, population, and energy production as the proxy ofnatural resources.Based on the random effect model, the result shows that tax as mainexplanatory variable, has negative sign as expected. However, it is not significanteven at the level of ten percent. Furthermore, the population, real minimum wage,and energy production variables are negatively affect the FDI inflows as well. Onthe other hand, GDP per capita and openness degree are positively affects FDIinflows, This study investigates the determinants of foreign direct investment inflowsin developing and developed countries by panel data analysis.
