Same situation in Jakarta. It used to be US$10 for 3 days but a few months ago they extended to 7 days (the receipts still say 3 days IIRC).
I tick Business on the form and never have any problem getting Visa on Arrival for my British passport so you should be OK to do that. I know Asian colleagues who go in as tourists but that's because they're from countries that don't need visas for tourism but do need them for business. They're the same colleagues who get asked why they're bringing a laptop on holiday...
