Selection of sample derived using purposive sampling to 31 SKPD and generates 17 sample which has Region Original Revenue (PAD) component and so 28 sample which has Direct Expenditure component in each of it’s budget structure. Total observed object used to examine ratchet effect in PAD budgeting is 68 observation and so forth 112 observation used to examine ratchet effect in Direct Expenditure budgeting. Multiple Linear Regresion used to test the hypotheses. The result shows that ratchet effect occurs in both PAD and Direct Expenditure budgeting, so all research hypotheses statistically accepted.
