22.01.2022 SMEs get instant asset write-off extension, but EOFY deadline looms =============================================== Great news for small business owners: the federal government has extended the $150,000 instant asset write-off to 31 December 2020, but you’ll need to act asap if you want to make use of the scheme this financial year.... A few months back, just as coronavirus was ramping up in Australia, the federal government increased the instant asset write-off threshold from $30,000 to a staggering $150,000 as part of its economic stimulus package. Under the expanded scheme, businesses with an annual turnover of less than $500 million can immediately write off the cost of new or second-hand assets such as food vans, tools, equipment and thanks to the recent threshold increase heavier vehicles such as trucks, tractors, and machinery. Better yet, the threshold applies on a per asset basis, so eligible businesses can immediately write off multiple assets. Why the extension? -------------------------- Under the scheme, an asset must be installed and ready to use by the deadline (previously June 30) in order to be eligible. So, by giving a six-month extension (to December 31) the government is giving under-the-pump businesses around the country additional time to acquire and install assets which essentially means a little more breathing room. There’s still time this financial year --------------------------------------------- All that said, there’s still time to make the most of the scheme this financial year. By doing so, you can immediately claim all the tax deductions you would have claimed over the life of the asset. This can help with your business’s cash flow, as getting the cash back sooner means you can re-inject it straight back into other parts of your business. So if you’d like help obtaining finance before the June 30 EOFY deadline, please get in touch. We can present you with financing options for the instant asset write-off scheme that are well suited to your business’s needs now, and into the future.

01.01.2022 How to smooth out your business’s insurance and workers comp premiums ---- Getting a bill in the mail is never pleasant, but your annual insurance and workers compensation premiums can be particularly tough lump sums to swallow. There is, however, an affordable financing option that can limit the impact on your business’s cash flow. Let’s take a look.... Most businesses have expensive annual insurance premiums to pay, whether they be for professional indemnity insurance, product liability insurance, public liability insurance, or any other general business insurance policy. Throw your workers compensation premiums into the mix and these obligations can become quite the annual financial hurdle to overcome. Fortunately, a financing option exists that can smooth out your cash flow headache and help you become eligible for an early bird discount on your workers compensation premium. Insurance Premium Funding (IPF) --------------------------------------------- IPF allows you to split your insurance payments into manageable, affordable, monthly amounts that won’t cripple your cash-flow like an annual lump sum payment can. Basically, any business that has an insurance premium of more than $5,000 has the ability to use IPF if they need to. The insurance premiums are normally financed over 8 to 10 months to ensure the premium is fully paid before its renewal, and there is generally no security required with IPF. Workers comp early bird payment discount due soon One insurance premium that IPF is commonly used for is workers compensation. That’s because in some states (including NSW, Victoria and Queensland), employers who pay their annual premium in full are entitled to a 3% to 5% early bird discount. But here’s the catch: workers comp premiums need to be paid in full before the early bird due date (typically around August/September) in order to receive the discount. By using IPF to make this payment upfront you can secure the early bird discount, which helps to offset the cost of IPF. Taking this option will also improve your business’s cash flow, allowing you to redirect capital into income-generating investments. Find out more ------------------- If you’d like to find out more about IPF then get in touch today especially if you want to be eligible for the workers compensation early bird discount. We’re here to help your business any way we can.
