We are constantly amazed by the attitude of some small business owners towards their finances.
Whilst it may be true that you can get a friend or relative to do your bookkeeping, how can you be sure that they are doing the job correctly?

Happy New Financial Quarter!
For some business owners the BAS is a pain in the neck
As we enter Q2 for 2008/09 the world of finance seems to be in turmoil, but guess what? The Australian Taxation Office still want you to lodge your Business Activity Statements.
Regardless of what’s happening (or not) in Wall Street or George Street, businesses around Fitzroy and Richmond still need to get their bookwork sorted out for the quarter ending September 30 2008, to have the BAS done by 28 October 2008.
Are you struggling with your bookkeeping?
For some business owners the BAS is a pain in the neck, so they brush it aside and put it in that special place, the “TOO DIFFICULT Pile”
Trouble is, that really doesn’t fix the bookwork, and without a bookkeeper, or someone who’s got a handle on the bookkeeping, those Toorak or Fitzroy business owners that are not addressing the problem may soon find that they get fan mail from the ATO.
