Xero Certified Advisor Gold partner, Chartered Accountant, BAS agent

I am an Australian Chartered Accountant with a B.Comm. and over 30 years accounting and tax law. I am a Xero Certified Advisor, Xero Gold Partner, BAS agent and ASIC agent. I offer a virtual Chief Financial Officer service and provide a complete bookkeeping, accounting, monthly reporting , BAS and taxation advice. I am a retired tax agent so I refer all my tax return work to my tax agent who does excellent, competitively priced work. My skills and expertise includes: • Balance sheet reconciliations and sorting out accounts for clients prior to completing and filing their quarterly BAS statements and income tax returns and frequently negotiate repayment arrangements with the Tax Office for tax debts, regularly achieving major reductions from previous repayment arrangements. • Converting manual records to Xero and doing Xero set up work. I aim to have my clients obtain a clear picture of how their business is travelling at any stage in the accounting year and to have a better understanding of their financial position. • Organising new company and Trust registrations and advising on the setting up of any businesses in Australia. I know how to navigate the maze of statutory, taxation, transfer pricing, intercompany charges and regulatory requirements to become operational. • Due diligence reports on potential acquisitions, preparing the financial statements for IPO prospectuses and have done forensic accounting and written reports to be submitted in Court evidence as an accountant expert for clients involved in Court action against their business partners.
