Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis deskriptif untuk memberikan gambaran perkembangan Dana Desa, PAD dan Dana Perimbangan serta analisis data panel untuk menganalisis pengaruh Dana Desa, PAD dan Dana Perimbangan terhadap komponen IPM yaitu AHH, RLS dan PPP di Indonesia. Hasil estimasi regresi data panel menunjukkan bahwa Dana Desa, DBH, DAU, dan DAK mampu memengaruhi komponen IPM secara positif dan signifikan. Namun, hasil estimasi model menunjukkan variabel PAD berpengaruh negatif dan signifikan terhadap AHH dan PPP serta tidak signifikan terhadap RLS., Regional Autonomy is the right and obligation of autonomous regions that are authorized to regulate regional problems independently for the benefit of local communities as long as they are still within the Indonesia regulations. One way to measure the success of Regional Autonomy with the TKDD and Local Regional Revenue (PAD) mechanisms can be done by looking at the Human Development Index (HDI).
