25.01.2022 All employers must make sure that they are withholding the correct amount from salaries or wages paid to employees to reflect the personal income tax changes announced by Government during the Federal Budget 2020-21. Your payroll system has to be updated by November 16! If you are on Xero nothing to do, it is likely already done. If on MYOB you will need to process the update. #taxtime #accountant #darwin

09.01.2022 Have you heard the joke about the interesting accountant? No? Us either. Actually not entirely true we think Amanda our managing director is pretty cool. As well as being an awesome boss, she is a busy mother of three, keen fisher and all round territory lover! After working for large national accounting firms Amanda saw an opportunity in the industry to provide a more personalised approach to small and medium business and as such established @wrenaccounting in 2018.... It’s been a busy start to the year (thanks covid) but Amanda and the team are looking forward to kicking off tax time.... 5 days to go! #smallbusiness #accountant #taxtime #local

09.01.2022 Myth: I can claim my gym membership because I need to be fit for work. Fact: Unfortunately while you might like to keep fit, there are only a very small number of people who can claim gym memberships, such as special operations personnel in the Australian Defence Force. To be eligible, your job would have to depend on you maintaining a very high level of fitness, for which you are regularly tested #tax #taxtime #countdown #smallbusiness #local #darwin

08.01.2022 It’s easy to be caught out by the ATO when hosting your Christmas party. Our next few posts will give you tips on how to avoid Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) this festive season. TIP 1 Ensure that the cost of your celebration costs less than $300 per employee (minor fringe benefits tax exemption)... A minor benefit is one that is provided to an employee or their associate (e.g. spouse) on an infrequent or irregular basis, which is not a reward for services and at a cost less than $300 per benefit inclusive of GST When recording the Christmas party in your accounting software, record how many employees, clients & associates attended. #christmas #christmastax #darwinaccountant #accounting #tax
