Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers regarding our appointment scheduling, document requirements, and lodgement process.
What is included in a Business Income Tax Return (ITR)?
A Business ITR includes comprehensive trading income schedules, trading stock valuations, cost of sales reconciliations, depreciation schedules, motor vehicle claims, and contractor expense verification.
Can I claim the instant asset write-off for business equipment?
Yes. Eligible small businesses can write off the business portion of qualifying depreciating assets costing less than $20,000 first used or installed ready for use within the financial year.
Do I need to be registered for GST to lodge a business ITR?
Not necessarily. If your turnover is under $75,000, GST registration is optional, but your business trading income and deductions must still be formally declared on your business tax schedule.
