Our New Business Bookkeeping Services
- Registering a Business Name
- Registering for GST
- Registering for PAYG as an employer if you are going to take on employees
- Accounting Software – Get set up on Xero from the beginning – Xero is our preferred accounting software because it is web based and is easy to use, even on your ipad or tablet or your smart phone.
- Paperwork – what to keep and where do you keep it
- Setting up employees correctly from the beginning and being Fair Work compliant
- Getting ready for Single Touch Payroll (STP)
- Basic Bookkeeping and Business Fundamentals – Balance Sheet & Profit & Loss – what are they and why are they important. If you want to understand these important aspects of your business in more detail or understand exactly what a professional bookkeeper is or could be doing for you, you may want to enrol in a small business course run through your local TAFE or Community College. We can’t really teach you everything we have learnt over the last 20 years in a few hours unfortunately.
- Cash Flow – the most important factor in any small business.
- All of your bookkeeping or some of your bookkeeping, whatever you need.
- Debt collection procedures and what you should be doing and not doing to keep on top of your debtors.
- Understanding statements from suppliers and the importance of reconciling them on a monthly basis..
- Understanding bank reconciliations and the reasons why they are so important to be completed on a regular basis.
- Putting aside funds for the ATO on a regular basis
- We can prepare and lodge your monthly or quarterly Business Activity Statement – whilst Xero make it sound like it is just a click of a button to lodge your BAS, we do not suggest you do this. You do not know what you do not know in regards to GST and BAS. As professional registered BAS agents, we complete many checks and balances and have current qualifications and undertake continuing professional education so we make sure your BAS figures are correct so you have peace of mind if you do get audited by the Australian Tax Office.
- Finding a good, pro-active Accountant in the Sydney area.
What do you do with your paperwork?
The best piece of advice we offer all of our clients is to use the Dext app on their phone to easily take care of their mounting pile of paperwork.
It is a really simple process, all you need is a smart phone and you download the app. This allows you to take a photo of a receipt for some supplies you have just purchased, you don’t need to write in what it is for as we can see what it is for as we will see the receipt. You don’t need to say which bank account you have used to pay for it either, you just hit save. From there, we do all of the processing from coding it off in Receipt Bank, pushing it across to Xero where it then becomes a bill with the receipt attached for you or your accountant to see at any time down the track.
This is great in the unlikely event of a tax audit as all of your paperwork is attached, still easy to read, not in a shoebox or filed somewhere else.
