Tax & Compliance

When I ask my clients what is the best thing about running their small business, do you know what there answer is?

I can tell you what their answer isn’t.  No-one says “I love doing my quarterly BAS and paying tax to the government when I do my Income Tax Return”.  No-One!

This is where we at The Bucket List Accountant come into it.  We will take this onerous burden off your shoulders.  While you are out ticking things off your bucket list, we will be doing five very important, if not boring, tasks for you.

·  Quarterly BAS Preparation

·  End of Year Tax Returns

·  Ensuring you stay compliant with the ATO

·  Keeping the tax you pay to the ATO to the bare minimum.

· Keeping you out of jail.

How does that sound?

While you are sipping a cocktail on a beach in the Bahamas or jumping out of a plane (with a parachute on of course) we will be taking care of your obligations with the ATO.

Now we just want to make something very clear.  When we say keeping the amount of tax you pay to a bare minimum we don’t mean that you will pay no tax.  If you are not paying tax you are not making profit.  And if you aren’t making profit then you aren’t ticking things off your bucket list.  This is no good for anyone.

Kerry Packer famously once said at a hearing - “I pay the tax I am required to pay, not a penny more, not a penny less. If anybody in this country doesn’t minimize their tax, they want their heads read because, as a Government, I can tell you they’re not spending it that well that we should be donating extra.”

Kerry Packer said this back in 1991 and it still rings true today, 31 years later.  At The Bucket List Accountant we will ensure that you pay the amount of tax you are required to pay and not a penny more.  The more tax we can save you, the more things we can tick off your bucket list.

And the most exciting thing about all this is that we will get this done for you as part of your package.  Our main focus is to improve your business, create more profits and allow you to tick things off your bucket list sooner.  But in the background, just as diligently we will be ensuring all your tax obligations are met.

So sit back, relax and let the team at The Bucket List Accountant take care of your tax.
