Abstract

This research determined the impact of electronic tax audits on the tax obligations of Peruvian hardware store micro-entrepreneurs in the cities of Junín and Lima. A structural equation model was used, which revealed the inverse impact of electronic tax audits on tax obligations. The study concludes that the modernization of tax audit systems has facilitated tax management, improving the efficient identification and collection of taxes from delinquent taxpayers and the detection of tax fraud.
