🛑 Too many business owners overlook these golde

🛑 Too many business owners overlook these golden rules from the ATO when claiming expenses:

1️⃣You spent the money AND weren’t reimbursed by anyone
2️⃣It DIRECTLY relates to you earning income
3️⃣You must have records (INVOICE) to prove it

And here’s the kicker, bank statements aren’t records. If your bookkeeper says they are, and doesn’t ask you for invoices, or ensures sure you have them 🚩🚩 When the ATO comes knocking, it’s your responsibility to know this and have everything you need.

Yes, there are some minor exceptions, but sticking with the rules simplifies things and keeps you on the right side of the ATO and compliant 🙌

Nearly half of small businesses don't make it past

Nearly half of small businesses don't make it past the 5-year mark 💔

It's not a lack of grit or bland branding shutting them down either. It's poor financial management. Which is alarming but also? It's hopeful because it's something we can shift.

You can take control of your finances if you understand:
💰 Budgeting
💸 Managing cash flow
📊 Tracking income and expenses
📈 Planning and forecasting

Get those 4 things right and you're well on your way to squashing that statistic ✊🏼

As a qualified bookkeeper (with ironclad integrity

As a qualified bookkeeper (with ironclad integrity), I won't even consider doing these 3 things 👇🏼

❌ Dance in the grey area of bookkeeping. Clear claims, proper coding, and timely lodgements are non-negotiable.
❌ Dish out advice beyond my expertise. The ATO's stance on income tax and your obligations are laws, not suggestions. I'll steer clear of the deep end.
❌ Partner with unethical companies. Integrity is at the heart of what I do.

ALWAYS happy for questions, and I'll let you know the right direction or who to speak to. But here's a tip - insist I do any of those things and I'll bid you adieu ...forever 💨

🔍 The biggest flex for us? When clients get curious about their numbers. 💡

It's easy to handball your finances off to your bookkeeper in a set-and-forget fashion, but it's not advised. That's why I was THRILLED to get this feedback:
👇🏼
"I have recently started completing a weekly numbers 'check-in' with myself around how much money I 'really' have. So I take the full amount in my bank account - unused retainer payments - my next BAS & super estimate. This has opened my eyes to how much I actually have in the company. I would love some ideas around how to expand on this so I can plan ahead and be more prepared as this company grows. I have been taken off guard recently with all my bills and I'm really unsure as to what I should be doing to prevent this from happening again."

Our role at Accounted For You is to nurture this newfound curiosity and educate our clients to not only understand their current financial position but also PLAN for their future. 🌟 📊
