16.01.2022 New powers proposed for the ATO to order attendance at a record keeping course: As part of the mid-year economic and fiscal outlook (MYEFO), the Government announced a proposal to tackle a lack of financial knowledge by allowing the Commissioner discretion to order taxpayers to undertake an approved record-keeping course instead of applying financial penalties.Under the proposal, the Commissioner will be able to exercise discretion where he, ...reasonably believes there has ...been a failure by the taxpayer to comply with their reporting obligations.Taxpayers deliberately avoiding their compliance obligations and/or refusing to engage with the ATO would still be subject to the existing penalty and prosecution regimes. www.clarkemcewan.com.au/accounting_software Brisbane and Sunshine Coast Offices http://www.clarkemcewan.com.au/contact_us

15.01.2022 One of the biggest challenges faced by CFOs and senior finance professionals is to improve business processes in the finance department in order to keep pace with these changes. It’s possible to do this by taking advantage of the opportunities offered by digitalisation, to meet customer expectations and to keep relevant in an era where everything is moving rapidly. Embracing digitalisation gives you the power to harness data at your fingertips, and to empower your team to do ...the same. To make the most of it, it’s important to champion the adoption of new technologies like data analytics. This will cut down administrative time, and completely change how people see the finance team’s role in the business. For assistance implementing digital strategies into your business and to bring meaning to your numbers contact our office for a complimentary coffee and a chat http://www.clarkemcewan.com.au/conta/request_an_appointment Brisbane www.clarkemcewan.com.au Brisbane and Sunshine Coast Offices #businessadvice #digitalbusiness #Covid19 #businessgrowthstrategies #smallbusinessadvice #businessfinance #Corona19

03.01.2022 If you perform some of your work from your home office, you may be able to claim a deduction for the costs you incur in running your home office, even if the room is not set aside solely for work-related purposes. SO WHAT HOME OFFICE EXPENSES ARE ALLOWED? The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has announced special arrangements this year due to COVID-19 to make it easier for people to claim deductions for working from home. The new arrangement will allow people to claim a rate ...of 80 cents per hour for all their running expenses, rather than needing to calculate costs for specific running expenses. Multiple people living in the same house can claim this new rate. For example, a couple living together could each individually claim the 80 cents per hour rate. The requirement to have a dedicated work from home area has also been removed. This new shortcut arrangement does not prohibit people from making a working from home claim under existing arrangements, where you calculate all or part of your running expenses. Claims for working from home expenses prior to 1 March 2020 cannot be calculated using the shortcut method, and must use the pre-existing working from home approach and requirements. The ATO will review the special arrangement for the next financial year as the COVID-19 situation progresses. For more information about this topic be sure to LIKE and FOLLOW our page.
