Tax time is just around the corner, but don’t fret small business owner, we’ve got your back! While MicroChilli is here to support you with your books, it’s important to have an accountant on your team too.
So in this episode Sharon and Zelda discuss all things accounting, tax and getting the most out of this time of the year, including:
- The importance of looking to an accountant not just at tax time, but all of the time
- The value of working with an accountant and bookkeeper who are on the same page
- The role of tax planning (and that if your accountant hasn’t brought this up with you yet, it might be time to switch!)
- What your tax time checklist needs to include, and why you might not even need one (hint: planning throughout the year is key)
- Key things to stay on top of as an employer from a hiring, super and tax perspective
- Tax deductions, including their definition, common deductions, and how they vary by business
- Zelda’s ultimate tax time no nos! The big ones? Don’t wait until the 30th June to start preparing, or avoid lodging your returns all together due to fear or worry
- Plus, Zelda runs us through her Rich Women CEOs Facebook Group, a support network for women covering not just finance, but general ideas, learnings and more.
