Every business is unique. This is why we have created packages based on our clients’ individual requirements. If you’re feeling a little lost in your business and would like some guidance, please feel free to submit an enquiry about our services, so we can collate a package to suit your needs.

Accounting & Compliance Services

We pride ourselves on providing on-time reminders of our clients’ due dates. This could save you money in ATO or ASIC penalties for late lodgements. Our firm assists all clients in the following compliancy areas: GST, superannuation, payroll taxes, income tax, fringe benefits tax, taxable payments and ASIC, to name a few.

BAS Returns

Some clients manage their day to day transactions then visit our firm monthly or quarterly to assist with the preparation of their GST and PAYG lodgments. In this service we review clients transactions and provide feedback on findings prior to lodging.

Bookeeping

Successful business owners run up to date, accurate financial records. For our time poor clients, our firm offers full bookkeeping and payroll processing services. Our firm encourages clients to take advantage of automatic bank feeds and the data matching technology of scanning documents to be matched to client’s transactions. By streamlining these processes, it saves clients (and us) time and adds to client’s transparency of business transactions.

Business Advisory Services

Considering restructuring your business? Our team of accountants can discuss the various options available along with the pros and cons, so that you are able to make a fully informed decision.

Payroll

Employment law is becoming increasingly complex with the ever evolving employment legislation. We strongly advise clients to offer their employees employment contracts that clearly outline their responsibilities as an employer; and their expectations from their employees.

We encourage all employers to clearly understand what award their employees are covered under. If you are unsure of your contractual obligations within your staff contracts you may also wish to outsource the compilation of your employment contracts to a third party or contact Fair Work for guidance.

Once clients provide us with employee contracts, we are able to provide:

Provide customized pay slips
Calculate PAYG, Superannuation, Annual Leave and Sick Pay Accruals
Lodge Payroll Via ATO STP Reporting
Lodge annual STP Finalization Report
Calculate termination pays

We encourage all of our clients to review their financial position between April and June. This enables us to advise clients of their tax position and strategies available for tax minimisation. This is a proactive accounting service where we are able to advise clients of their available options prior to 30 June. Our tax planning service is a popular option for clients wishing to grow their wealth, or tax minimisation.

Software Training & Support

Tax Planning

This is our favorite time of year! Tax Planning is offered to all our business clients to ensure that all measures have been taken prior to 30 June to minimize client’s tax positions. Tax planning allows business owners to take control of their finances, which in turn assists them in being able to make proactive business choices.
