Kathy Neville Accounting & Tax Solutions

Taxpayers in Townsville and the surrounding area can book weekend and after-hours appointments with this Mundingburra practice, which runs on the experience of a certified practising accountant with more than 35 years in income tax returns of every kind. It describes its service as personal, friendly and proactive, and says it also offers mobile visits where necessary.

Tax returns and overdue lodgements

The practice prepares income tax returns for individuals and for sole traders, partnerships, trusts, companies and superannuation funds. It says it can prepare and lodge overdue returns and deal with the Australian Tax Office to reduce penalties. Fees are explained up front: individual returns are charged at a standard rate, extra schedules such as rental property, sole trader and investment ones cost more, and other entities are quoted a fixed fee that the client agrees before work starts.

The site answers common questions in plain terms. If employer payment summaries have not arrived, the information may be available from the tax office as prefilled amounts, and the practice only needs to check it is complete, with a last payslip as a fallback. If information is missing, the practice recommends a client still comes in, because tax agents are given longer to lodge than people who lodge for themselves, and the missing items may be obtainable or less significant than feared.

Business advice and compliance

For businesses, the practice covers GST compliance and the lodgement of BAS and IAS statements, and helps employers become compliant with Single Touch Payroll, either on the existing payroll software or with another solution. Bookkeeping can be handled for owners who would rather concentrate on running the business, and the practice also helps set up accounting systems and trains staff in using them.

Starting, buying and selling a business

It describes a consulting side as well: business reviews and financial analysis to find key performance indicators, plans and cash flows for finance applications or grant applications, and advice on the best structure for someone starting, buying or selling a business. The practice sets up companies and trusts, supplies ongoing secretarial service for established companies to meet corporate regulator requirements, and offers business valuation using a method suited to the case, so that a buyer or seller reaches a fair price.
