\begin{abstract}
        


The study was carried-out to assess the contribution of internally generated revenue before (TIN) on total tax revenue in Kogi State. The related literatures were reviewed. The population of study comprises the Total Tax Revenue Before TIN (TRBT) and Internally Generated Revenue Before TIN (IGRBT). A number of statistical tools including tables and Regression were used to analysed the data and test the hypothesis formulated. Our analysis of data revealed that, the internally generated revenue (IGR) before the introduction of TIN within (2003-2007) was not significant. We recommended that a holistic tax education should be carried out in order to keep the teeming taxpayers abreast of the need to pay their taxes to the state and the enforcement unit of the State Revenue Board should be properly empowered to monitor, enforce and prosecute any errant tax defaulters who fail to comply with tax authority.

\section[{Introduction a) Background to the Study}]{Introduction a) Background to the Study}\par
axpayer Identification Number (TIN) is a 10 (ten) digit number that is unique to each taxpayer in Nigeria, for every individual and corporate organization i.e. taxable entities that earn a steady income. The Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) is a platform which will harmonize taxpayer identification and registration in Nigeria; it will create closer linkage between the various tax authorities in Nigeria and, will aid corporation, information sharing and increase revenue generation accruing to all tiers of the governments (JTB Bulletin, 2011).\par
Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) is an initiative of the Joint Tax Board (JTB) in collaboration with the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) and the 36 State Boards of Internal Revenue (SBIR). It is an electronic system of taxpayers' registration, which would uniquely identify all taxpayers and would be available nationwide.\par
The Joint Tax Board (JTB) is provided with the responsibility (as amended in section 8(q) (d) of the Personal Income Tax Act and section 8(q) of the Federal Inland Revenue Service Establishment Act 2007), to ensure collaboration in the issuance and administration of Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) to all taxable entities. The TIN is aimed to have reliable and centralized data of information of all taxpayers in the country, which would allow the sharing of information among all tax authorities. It equally creates a national platform for the registration and allocation of an identification number to all taxpayers to aid effective tax administration process. And also to automate tax registration activities for all levels of government and therefore facilitate a sustainable platform for internally generated revenue in Kogi State.\par
It is expected that tax bases would be widen through the registration of all eligible taxpayers. This would enhance greater compliance and returns as the available information of each taxpayer would enable proper tracking and more collection processes. This would lead to an increase in internally generated revenue. Internally generated revenue on the other hand connotes monies collected by the government through imposition of taxes and levies on facilities, incomes, and consumptions, transfer of properties and other domestic transactions as opposed to monies collected from duties imposed on import and other international transactions (JTB Bulletin, 2011).\par
It is crucial for effective tax administration that every individual and business taxpayer has a unique tax identification number. Measures and controls must be in place to ensure that only one tax number is assigned to each taxpayer \hyperref[b3]{(Agbonika 2012}). To avoid or eliminate multiplicity of taxes across the country, the Taxes and Levies (approved list for collection) Decree no 21 of 1998 clearly defined which taxes are collectible by each tier of Government in Nigeria. The list has since been published and distributed by the exclusive list or concurrent list for collection. T However, it is a well known fact that tax administration in Nigeria has been faced with issues and challenges ranging from non-identification, registration and compliance of taxpayers. This inherent problem is also associated with the implementation of tax policies in our tax system.\par
Registering businesses in the informal economy could pose a challenge. This might be done by auditing registered taxpayers in order to detect their unregistered suppliers or customers or by actually sending tax Officials to conduct a tax survey in a particular geographical area to ensure that all persons and businesses are properly registered (Agbonika 2012) 
\section[{b) Statement of the Problem}]{b) Statement of the Problem}\par
One of the problems of tax administration in the three tiers of government in Nigeria is the improper identification of tax bases by the three tiers of government.\par
The constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended 2010, provides an approved list of taxes and levies accruable to the three ties of governments respectively, but there are several court cases in respect of some tax bases often between the Federal and some State governments for instance, the case between the Federal and Lagos State government on consumption tax. The problem of improper tax identification has caused some taxpayers to pay the same tax to two or more tax authorities, hence, leading to multiple taxations which have negative effects on the economy.\par
The challenge of improper tax education by the authorities has occasioned a low compliance from the taxpayers which have affected the internally generated revenue because few taxpayers are brought into the tax net. 
\section[{c) Research Question}]{c) Research Question}\par
1. What is the contribution of internally generated revenue of Kogi State to the total tax revenue before the introduction of TIN programme? 
\section[{d) Objectives of the Study}]{d) Objectives of the Study}\par
The broad objective of this study is to assess the contribution of internally generated revenue to the total tax revenue in Kogi State.\par
The specific objective of this study includes the following:-1. To determine how Internally Generated Revenue contributes to Kogi State total tax revenue before the introduction of TIN programme e) Statement of Hypotheses Ho 1 : Internally generated revenue does not contribute significantly to the total tax revenue before the introduction of TIN programme in Kogi State. 
\section[{f) Scope of the Study}]{f) Scope of the Study}\par
This research was concerned with the types of revenue accruable to the state, (Kogi State Board of Internal Revenue). The study covers the period 2003-2007 and considered the different sources of revenue to the state government, such as Personal Income Tax, Withholding Taxes of Individual, Pay As You Earn, Road Taxes, Business Registration etc. the ways and manner in which the revenues are collected and also the problem encountered and the possible solutions will be considered. 
\section[{g) Significance of the Study}]{g) Significance of the Study}\par
The findings will not only assist Revenue Boards but also Individual Taxpayers and Corporations who are stakeholders in the tax administration.\par
The significant of the study is not far fetch. Judging from the fact that internally generated revenue is a stable source of revenue to the government. 
\section[{II.}]{II.} 
\section[{Literature Review and Theoretical}]{Literature Review and Theoretical}\par
Frame Work According to a Government notice dated 25 th May 2007, all existing current account holders to obtain a Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) to be issued by FIRS in collaboration with States and Local Governments. The use of TIN became mandatory from 1 st February, 2008 for all taxpayers dealing with FIRS and for all transactions with financial institutions in accordance with the order contained in the Government notice.\par
The State Internal Revenue Service was established by the Personal Income Tax Decree of 1993 as updated 2004 and now the principal Legislation is Personal Income Tax Amendment Act 2011 as the state tax authority. The operational arm of the board is the state internal revenue service Board. The Personal Income Tax Decree of 1993 section 85A (1) provided a uniform composition for the boards in all the states of the federation.\par
The composition of the board is as follows:\par
1. The executive head of internal revenue service who shall be designated as the Chairman of the board.\par
He shall be a person experience in tax matters and be appointed by the State governor from with in the service. 2. Three person nominated by the commissioner of finance of the state on their personal merits. 3. All the directors from head of the state internal revenue service 4. A director from the state ministry of finance. 5. A legal adviser to the board. 6. The secretary to the board who shall be an exofficial member appointed by the board from within SIRSB.\par
The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) and the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) have introduced an inter-connectivity project, importers' Taxpayer's Identification Number (TIN) platform, to stakeholders at the nation's ports.\par
According to the FIRS Chairman the launch of the platform was done under the "project FACT" initiative of the FIRS which had been implemented successfully from inception till date.\par
According to FIRS boss TIN is a unique sequential number of predetermined digits electronically generated to all corporate and individual taxpayers. The inter-connectivity, which took immediate effect, was for the purpose of tax registration and would be used for the purpose of identifying a taxpayer.\par
The TIN must be quoted in all relevant transactions by the taxpayers, especially when paying taxes. The FIRS boss recalled that prior to the introduction of Inter-connectivity (TIN) the mechanism in place for the reconciliation of collections and other information was purely manual. The Custom Service will usually send paper copies of detail tax payments collected on imports and other relevant information.\par
The FIRS will thereafter be left to review, analyze and, if possible reconcile this information with it own records. She said the old record had its own inherent problems including difficulty in tracking or linking of importers' actual remittances.\par
The Taxpayer Identification Number program is to develop a national single window for harmonizing and standardizing the taxpayers' information and as well improve exchange of information among the stakeholders.\par
Accordingly, the FIRS and NCS integration project therefore, seeks to establish a data exchange interface between FIRS and NCS in real time. With this in place, details (name, taxpayer's identification number, and address) from the FIRS portal are transported through an electronic link to NCS. The launch would bring about increase revenue, greater efficiency, accountability, transparency and better management of records and information on the part of both FIRS and NCS However, there is a lot of confusion surrounding Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITIN) what they are, who has them, and the purposes for which they are used, immigration restrictionists take advantage of this confusion and often bring up Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) in an effort to make it seem as if undocumented immigrants are receiving special benefits or quasi-legal immigration status. The fact is that ITIN is used to pay taxes.\par
The Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) was created by the Internal Revenue Services (IRS) in July 1996 so that foreign nationals and other individuals who are eligible for social Security number can pay the taxes they are legally required to pay. The TIN program was introduced on the 12th December, 2012 and came into effect in May 2013. However the period we shall be considering will be from May, 2013 till date.\par
Therefore, in a bid to address the negative effects of multiple taxations, the Joint tax Board (JTB) introduced the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), an initiative that is expected to address the issues of multiplicity of taxes and also help to bring more taxpayers into the tax net.\par
According to some experts, multiplicity of taxes is having a negative effect on the competitiveness of the Nigerian economy, making the country's tax system highly inefficient.  
\section[{c) Definition of Revenue}]{c) Definition of Revenue}\par
Abubakar (2007), defines revenue as a "general term for the monetary receipts accruing to the government from both tax and non-tax sources.\par
The Oxford Dictionary also defined the word "revenue" as the money that is earned by a company or money that the government receives from tax. \hyperref[b9]{Imam (2006)} defines revenue as the total income that accrues to the government of a country from various sources.\par
The Federal Republic of Nigeria Guidelines for Local Government reform (2007) on it part described revenue as a general term used for all monetary receipts accruing to the government from both tax and non-tax sources.\par
Asuku (2006) also defined revenue as the income derived from any sources to ascertain a specific or general interest of the people either by individual or government agency.\par
Revenue is a term primary used in the United States to describe the amount of money a company ( ) D generates in a set period of time through the sale of products and/ or services. 
\section[{d) Sources of Revenue to State Government}]{d) Sources of Revenue to State Government}\par
According to Decree No 21 of 1998 LFN, the revenue available to the state governments are:- i. Urban areas as defined by each State, maximum of \#10,000 for registration and \#5,000 per annum for renewal of registration ii.

According to JTB Bulletin (2011), the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) aims at identifying and registering all taxable Nigerians, thereby providing a sustainable platform for revenue generation to enable the country have adequate funds for execution of laudable program for its citizenry.\par
It is a well known fact that tax administration in Nigeria has been faced with issues and challenges ranging from non identification, registration and compliance of taxpayers. The TIN was designed primarily to address these and many problems in the country's tax administration procedures in order to bring it in line with global best practices.\par
Therefore benefits derivable from TIN program include:\par
i. Filling of existing loopholes in the Country's tax system. ii. Enhancement of taxpayer identification and registration thereby bringing more taxpayers in to the tax net. iii. Minimization of errors and mistakes associated with manual registration. iv. Reduction in the issues of multiple taxations which have been major challenges for taxpayers and administrators. v. Enhancing of information sharing among relevant agencies in the country. vi. Minimizing or eliminating cost of tax compliance as a result of greater accuracy in capturing data of taxpayers; with the electronic system, tax authorities will be able to effectively access, collate, analyze and retrieve data with ease. vii. The TIN will facilitate a more efficient system of tax assessment and collection as well as tax audit and investigation. viii. Enhancement of voluntary compliance thereby allowing tax authorities to focus on review and verification of claims by taxpayers. ix. The system will block all leakages in tax collection, eliminate corruption in tax system and enable tax authorities ascertain the actual income and taxes of all registered taxpayers. x. Enhancement of ICT literacy and capacity building among the SBIR staff. xi. Provision of basis for planning and budgeting purposes. xii. Widening and deepening of taxpayer date base. 
\section[{f) Theoretical Framework}]{f) Theoretical Framework}\par
Various tax policies have been put in place by the government to increase the internally generated revenue for the State. Given the chance, a lot of taxpayers may not pay taxes unless there is a motivation or coercion to do so. Tax policy theories can be broadly classified into two. These are: Economic based theory; and Psychological based theory. Therefore, both theories are examined below however; this study is guided by the "Economic Based Theory". 
\section[{g) Economic Based Theory}]{g) Economic Based Theory}\par
This is also known as deterrent theory and they place emphasis on incentives. The theory suggests that taxpayers are amoral utility maximizers-they are influenced by economic motives such as profit maximization and probability of detection. As such they analyzed alternative compliance paths for instance, whether or not to evade tax. The likelihood of been detected and the resulting repercussions and then select the alternative that maximizes their expectations after tax returns after adjusting for risk  {\ref (Smatrakalev, 2006)}. Therefore, according to this theory, in other to improve internally generated revenue, audit and penalties for noncompliance should be increased. 
\section[{h) Psychological Theory}]{h) Psychological Theory}\par
Psychological theory on the other hand postulates that taxpayers are influenced to comply with their tax obligations by psychological factors. The theory suggests that a taxpayer may comply even when the probability of detection is low. As opposed to the economic theory that emphasize increased audit and penalties as solutions to compliance issues, psychological theory placed emphasis on changing individual attitudes towards tax systems.

\section[{Research Methodology a) Research Design}]{Research Methodology a) Research Design}\par
This study entails analytical research in which the historical study method was used in collecting the data. The method of data collection was determined by such factors such as the research topic and purpose. 
\section[{b) The Population of the Study}]{b) The Population of the Study}\par
The population of the study consists of the draft estimates of Kogi State government of Nigeria with particular reference to the State Internally Generated Revenue behavior in the context of total tax revenue accruable to the State. Parameters like internally generated revenue before TIN (IGRBT), total tax revenue before TIN (TRBT) for various years  {\ref (2003)} {\ref (2004)} {\ref (2005)} {\ref (2006)} {\ref (2007)} would be used to capture the contribution of internally generated revenue of Kogi State to total tax revenue before the introduction of TIN. 
\section[{c) Determination of Sample Size}]{c) Determination of Sample Size}\par
Sampling is the act of selecting and observing only a specified subset of the population (Ugwu, 2003). The sample size (n) comprises of internally generated revenue before TIN (IGRBT) and total tax revenue before TIN (TRBT) data covering a period of 5 years, i.e.  {\ref (2003)} {\ref (2004)} {\ref (2005)} {\ref (2006)} {\ref (2007)}. The study used historical data in respect of IGRBT and TRBT. Data were obtained from Annexture of Kogi state budget estimates from  {\ref (2004)} {\ref (2005)} {\ref (2006)} {\ref (2007)} {\ref (2008)}   
\section[{e) Method of Data Analysis}]{e) Method of Data Analysis}\par
Specific packages for social scientists (SPSS) version 15.0 will be employed to analyze the data while F-test shall be used to test the hypotheses. Correlation test was also conducted to examine the extent to which Internally Generated revenue before the introduction of Tax payer Identification Number (TIN) programme in Kogi State contribute to the total tax revenue. 
\section[{f) Variable of the Study}]{f) Variable of the Study}\par
For this study, internally generated revenue before TIN (IGRBT) is the independent variable while total tax revenue (TRBT) is the dependent variable.\par
Independent variable: IGRBT is the parameter influencing the behavior of total tax revenue (TRBT) in the model. IGRBT is internally generated revenue before Taxpayer Identification Number  {\ref (2003)} {\ref (2004)} {\ref (2005)} {\ref (2006)} {\ref (2007)}. Dependent variable: this is the subjective variable of the study. In this study total tax revenue (TRBT) is subject to the interplay between the independent variable IGRBT parameter at a given period of time.\par
Total Tax Revenue before TIN (TRBT) is the sum of all tax revenue within  {\ref (2003)} {\ref (2004)} {\ref (2005)} {\ref (2006)} {\ref (2007)}, this is meant to be as TRBT=IGRBT as given respectively. By assuming linear relationship on account of the time series data involved in this research, effort shall be made to examine the independent variable i.e. IGRBT as regards the contribution on the dependent variable i.e. TRBT.  
\section[{c) Interpretation of Result}]{c) Interpretation of Result}\par
The R value is a correlation co-efficient that helps to detect the strength of the relationship between the TRBT i.e. the dependent variable and IGRBT i.e. the independent variable.\par
Model 2 [IGRBT Model] presents how internally generated revenue before TIN contributes to total tax revenue before TIN for the period covered  {\ref (2003)} {\ref (2004)} {\ref (2005)} {\ref (2006)} {\ref (2007)}. Thus; R =.372 translates to 37.2\%. This affirms that the dependent variable TRBT have a positive linear correlation though very weak with the independent variable (IGRBT). The co-efficient of determination being R 2 =.138. That is, 13.8\% of the change in the dependent variable is caused by the change in the independent variable. 
\section[{d) Test of Hypotheses}]{d) Test of Hypotheses}\par
To determine how Internally Generated Revenue contributes to Kogi State total tax revenue before the introduction of TIN programme  {\ref (2003)} {\ref (2004)} {\ref (2005)} {\ref (2006)} {\ref (2007)}, the hypothesis was examined using F-test. Model 2 is the model that captured the parameter from which our Ho1 will be decided. 
\section[{e) F-test}]{e) F-test}\par
At 5\% level of significance F tab i.e. F (1) (3) =10.13, F computed = .481. From Model 2, when F computed < F tabulated . Thus;.481< 10.13, we accept null hypothesis that Internally generated revenue does not contribute significantly to the total tax revenue before the introduction of TIN programme in Kogi State. 
\section[{f) Discussion of Findings}]{f) Discussion of Findings}\par
Based on the analysis, the following findings were arrived at:\par
As much as statutory allocation from federation account is the major source of revenue to Kogi State Government, the internally generated revenue contributes to the total tax revenue of the State.\par
The internally generated revenue before TIN (IGRBT) does not contributes significantly to the total tax revenue before TIN in Kogi State. As indicated by R of .372 i.e. 37.2\%.\par
The result also shows that before total tax revenue before TIN in Kogi State can increase the internally generated revenue must be increase by 398\% as indicated by the co-efficient of internally generate revenue of 3.980 V. 
\section[{Summary, Conclusion and Recommendations a) Summary}]{Summary, Conclusion and Recommendations a) Summary}\par
This study assesses the contribution of Internally Generated Revenue to total tax revenue before TIN in Kogi State. The findings are as summarized below: That;\par
The internally generated revenue before TIN (IGRBT) has a weak positive correlation with the total tax revenue before TIN (TRBT) as indicated by R value at .372. 
\section[{b) Conclusion}]{b) Conclusion}\par
The study revealed that the internally generated revenue (IGR) before the introduction of TIN within  {\ref (2003)} {\ref (2004)} {\ref (2005)} {\ref (2006)} {\ref (2007)} was not significant. Therefore, authorities and governments at all levels should collaborate to ensure proper tax education as this will boost the internally generated revenue of Kogi State.\begin{figure}[htbp]

Consequence upon several evidences from the research conducted; there is the need to make the following recommendations:\par
1. A holistic tax education should be carried out in order to keep the teeming taxpayers abreast of the need to pay their tax due to the State Government. 2. There should be incentives for the Tax Officials that are involve in the collection of taxes to boost their productivity 3. The State Board of Internal Revenue should be properly equipped to be able to carry-out their statutory function in the State. 4. The enforcement unit of the State Revenue Board should be properly empowered to monitor, enforce and prosecute any errant tax defaulters who fail to comply with tax authority.			 			  				\begin{bibitemlist}{1}
