Q&A for Business Advisory Services

Companies and other organisations have an obligation to be audited under various circumstances. An audit of financial reports is a regulatory requirement for the following:

  • Large proprietary companies
  • Registered Schemes (Managed Investment Scheme)
  • Disclosing entity (A body that holds enhanced disclosure securities)
  • Medium-Sized Charities with annual revenue of more than $250,000
  • Large Charities with more than $1 million of annual revenue

Another factor that causes the need for an audit is if a company or charity receives a government grant. This is proof for the government that the figures for the financial reports are true and fair.

First, you need to consider why you're hiring a business accountant over any other type of accountant.

  • If the reason is because the books are taking up too much of your time, then you probably need a bookkeeper rather than a business accountant.
  • If it is because you are having issues with cash flow and financial management, then you may need an internal or external business accountant.

Internally, business accountants are usually a major expense and are usually only employed in large-scale organisations. There can be some smaller businesses that may need an internal sme accountant, however, this is fairly uncommon. We would recommend that you first assess whether the tasks could be better delegated, both internally and externally, before hiring a business accountant internally. Liston Newton Advisory are small business accounting experts, get in touch with us today for a free strategy sessions.

There are various equipment finance options, and choosing the right one will depend on your business circumstances:

  • Equipment loan
  • Hire purchase loan
  • Finance lease
  • Operating lease

Your business accountant can help you determine which type of loan is the best for your business.

Most business accountant suggest that it is better to fund an asset purchase with cash if your cashflow allows. Paying cash will save you money on interest payments.

If you don't have the cashflow to support paying for the asset in full, then financing will be a better option.

You can choose to purchase a vehicle in your personal name or your company.

Purchasing a vehicle in a business structure can be a tax effective strategy as you can claim all of the business-related expenses and depreciation through the business. However, you need to consider Fringe Benefits Tax, as any non-business use needs to be accounted for through a Fringe Benefits Tax reimbursement.

A business accounting consultant can determine the best option tailored to your exact circumstances.

Our team of experienced business accountants are familiar with the financial needs of small businesses. We can advise you and help achieve your financial goals by preparing budgets and effectively managing your cashflow. Our cloud-based accounting technology will allow you to get invoices paid faster, collaborate remotely with accountants and keep your data protected with multilayer security.

We've been a small business ourselves so we know what it takes to grow a successful business.
