Taxation Services
We have been providing taxation services to our clients for over 30 years. We can assist with all areas of taxation for both businesses and individuals. We can provide advice and assistance on Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax, Fringe Benefits Tax, GST, PAYG, and Payroll Tax as well as on tax efficient structures.
We manage all interactions with the Australian Taxation Office to ensure that your returns are right and that your tax position is optimized. We also handle ATO audits, high wealth reviews and other disputes on your behalf.
Income Tax
All entities and business structures are subject to the evolving provisions of Australian (and in some cases foreign) legislation. The team at Edwards & Partners are always up-to-date and have access to specialist experts to ensure we can provide the best outcomes for our clients. We are registered tax agents and qualified to give advice and to complete returns for all types of entities including:
- Individuals
- Companies
- Trusts
- Partnerships
- Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSFs)
- Deceased Estates
- Not For Profits
BAS and IAS Reporting
We regularly assist clients with the preparation and lodgement of BAS and IAS returns, including all indirect taxes from GST to fuel tax credits to wine equalisation tax. We are experienced in advising on any complex or unusual transactions, such as business acquisitions or disposals. If you are setting up a business or increasing in scope, we can help with registration for GST, FBT, PAYGI and PAYGW.
Tax Planning
Tax can be a substantial cost to any business and can have significant cash flow considerations. We believe it is important to be aware of any liabilities well in advance, for the best chance to take advantage of opportunities and avoid nasty surprises. To achieve this, at Edwards & Partners we like to carry out a review of our clients’ tax position well prior to 30 June each year, for the best opportunity to take advantage of any strategies that may be available.
ATO Audits
It is a reality that the ATO conducts regular audit activity, so if you do receive notification that you have been selected then the team at Edwards & Partners can manage the process for you including handling all correspondence with ATO. Most people find the thought of an audit daunting, but with our experience the process can go smoothly.
Payroll Tax & Other Taxes
While GST and income taxes are the domain of the federal government and the ATO, there are taxes levied at the state government level as well. The team at Edwards & Partners can assist clients with meeting their obligations to State Revenue departments. Payroll tax is one such tax levied upon many employers. If you would like to know if this tax could apply to you, please talk to one of our team.
