Hypothesis testing using panel data regression. The results showed that regional financial performance (effectiveness ratio, efficiency, fiscal decentralization) and budget ratcheting affect capital expenditure allocation. Effectiveness and efficiency ratios negatively affect capital expenditure allocation, fiscal decentralization ratio positively affects capital expenditure allocation, and budget ratcheting negatively affects capital expenditure allocation. This study provides empirical evidence that one of the tools to analyze regional financial performance in managing regional finances is to conduct a financial ratio analysis.
