The article deals with the problem of adjusting the revenues of Polish local government units (LGUs) to their tasks. The problem was analysed both from the point of view of the possibility of increasing LGU revenues and designing an effective system of fiscal equalization. The authors discussed the external factors which limit the possibilities of introducing such a desirable system. Next, based on the presented analysis, they drew conclusions regarding the necessary revision of the existing scheme. The article concludes with specific recommendations for a new system of financing LGUs, assuming, in particular, far-reaching changes in the algorithms for determining and dividing general subsidies, as well as a fundamental reduction in the scope of the so-called commissioned tasks.

Research background: General grants in the system of local government finance should pursue five different functions. One of them is revenue equalization. This function is achieved if the revenue gap is reduced after the application of the subsidising mechanism. In addition, to be completed, the size of the support should be inversely proportional to own revenues. Purpose of the article: The aim of the article is to analyse the fulfilment of the revenue equalization function by general grants. Therefore, beside the theoretical analysis, which presents the general grants structure and the functions assigned to them, the article discusses the results of studies showing changes in the revenue gap after the application of the grant mechanism and the correlation between per capita own revenue and the amount of funds from selected parts (equalisation, balancing-regional, reserve, compensating) of the general grant. The following tentative research hypothesis was adopted: general grants fail to fulfil the revenue equalisation function. Methods: Two research methods were applied to achieve the aim of the article and verify the research hypothesis: descriptive statistics and correlation ? calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient. Findings & Value added: Based on the analyses, it was concluded that, once the corrective and equalising mechanism was applied, the range between the extreme per capita revenue values was reduced by 40?50% on average, at all local government levels, i.e. at commune (including cities with county right), county and province levels, in each year from the period analysed, i.e. 2012?2016. The correlation between the sizes of revenue before and after budget subsidising is always negative, whereas the strength of the relationship ranged between low and significant, depending on the local government level. It was found that general grants do fulfil the revenue equalisation function, which contradicts the initially formulated research hypothesis.

Gminy realizują zadania publiczne o znaczeniu lokalnym, których celem jest zaspokojenie zbiorowych potrzeb członków wspólnoty samorządowej. Z art. 7 ust. 1 pkt 8 ustawy o samorządzie gminnym wynika, że jednym z takich zadań jest edukacja publiczna. Źródłem finansowania zadań publicznych są dochody publiczne, tj.: dochody własne, subwencja ogólna i dotacje celowe z budżetu państwa. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest wskazanie: 1) obowiązków, jakie ciążą na organach lokalnych w związku z realizacją zadań z zakresu edukacji, 2) wysokości i dynamiki zmian wydatków na zadania gmin z zakresu edukacji, w tym stopnia ich finansowania środkami pochodzącymi z budżetu państwa oraz 3) zmian w sieci gminnych placówek oświatowych i liczbie uczęszczających do nich uczniów. Podmiotem badanym w niniejszym opracowaniu są gminy. Dane finansowe w nim prezentowane dotyczą zasadniczo lat 2003–2014.

Source of funding public tasks are public revenues, ie own revenues, general subsidy and grants from the government budget. The aim of this study is to identify: 1) the duties which are incumbent on local authorities in the implementation of tasks in the field of education, 2) the amount and dynamics of the expenditure on the tasks of municipalities in the field of education, including their funding resources from the government budge and 3) changes in the municipal network of educational institutions and the number of students attending them. In this study are tested municipalities. The financial data relates to the years 2003–2014.

Artykuł zawiera wyniki badań własnych, przedmiotem których było ustalenie statystycznego zróżnicowania dochodów własnych z tytułu opłaty za korzystanie z zezwoleń na sprzedaż napojów alkoholowych gromadzonych w budżetach gmin położonych na terenie województwa podkarpackiego. Badanie przeprowadzono, wykorzystując analizę korelacji Spermana, a także test Kruskala-Wallisa. Obliczeń statystycznych dokonano z wykorzystaniem pakietu IBM SPSS Statistics 25. W rezultacie przeprowadzone badania potwierdzają założoną tezę, że realizacja planu dochodów z tytułu opłaty za korzystanie z zezwoleń na sprzedaż napojów alkoholowych jest zróżnicowana pod względem rodzaju gminy, do której jest wnoszona. Na potrzeby weryfikacji założonej tezy celowe okazało się przeprowadzenie analizy wykonania planu dochodów gmin położonych w poszczególnych powiatach.

The article presents the results of research conducted in order to determine statistical differentiation of revenues from alcohol licence fees accumulated in the budgets of communes located on the territory of the Podkarpackie Voivodship. The study was conducted using Sperman’s correlation analysis, and the Kruskal-Wallis test was performed. Statistical calculations were made using the IBM SPSS Statistics 25 package. As a result, the conducted study confirms the adopted thesis that the implementation of the plan of revenues from alcohol licence fees differs depending on the type of commune to which the fees are paid. To verify the adopted thesis, it proved purposeful to carry out an analysis of implementation of the revenue plan of communes located in particular poviats.
