Balanced Bookkeepers are professional partners and pro advisors for MYOB AccountRight, Reckon Australia and the relatively newer kids on the block, Xero, Saasu and the revamped QuickBooks Online.

 

We also use industry specific software for example: Law firm client & accounting systems as approved by the governing Law Societies or a stock control system in a manufacturing business.

 

If the accounting package follows basic accounting principles then we can use it!

Financial Reporting

 

With all the great information we gather through our bookkeepers and BAS Agents we can provide top level, simplified reporting for your Board or you, the business owner, either on a monthly or quarterly basis.

 

We can empower you around your finances so you can make business decisions to control the direction of your business with full confidence you have based them on pure financial information provided by Balanced Bookkeepers.

Debtor Management Support

 

Finding it difficult to get paid on time?  You have old debts that need to be followed up?  You don’t have the time to do it yourself or you’re too nice a person and you don’t like to ask?

 

This is such a common problem for business owners with dangerous repercussion on your businesses financial stability.  Poor cashflow, no money in the bank when you need it is the result of poor debt collection.

 

We are experts at it and have become so through having the same experience as most other businesses. We can help you with credit control policy, explain why you need Terms of Trade and put in place an easy to follow collection procedure.  We can do it for you if you can’t.

 

It’s not all about collection, it’s also about prevention or minimising bad debt risk.  We have some clever things you might like to try?

 

All our processes are legitimate and comply with the credit provider’s act and other relevant legislations.

 

Why not give it a try, you never know, you may end up with some money in your pocket?

BAS & IAS

 

If you are currently in business or looking to commence one, and are not sure what a Business Activity Statement (BAS) is or what it means, then we can help you.

 

Since the Goods & Services Tax (GST) was introduced, there have been many changes in how Tax is collected and reported to the Australian Government. The BAS is the main form used to report the GST, PAYG, Income Tax Instalments, Fuel tax Rebates just to cite a few of the many Taxes that are now consolidated on the BAS.

​​
Balanced Bookkeepers are ATO licensed BAS Agents and have the required qualifications and skills to provide BAS Services in accordance with the Tax Agents Services Act.  We can prepare, review and lodge BAS electronically and as your Agent can discuss with the ATO, on your behalf, any issues that may arise with your BAS liabilities.

 

Our ability is in knowing what you can claim or declare GST on and making sure you do not pay any more or less than you need to.  We also assist you in meeting lodgement deadlines and remain compliant within the GST Laws.

 

Training

 

You don’t have to use our brilliant bookkeepers if you have your own in house staff and if you want to utilise their time more productively.

 

Balanced bookkeepers can train your staff in the basic day to day transactions, how to enter transactions into your software and maybe even up to bank reconciliation stage and more depending on their skill levels and understanding.

 

Just because you have completed a course on a particular accounting software package, doesn’t mean you become an instant bookkeeper.  However, with our support and review processes we can eventually make you a very effective processor.

 

We don’t just walk away and you never see us again, we are always available to lend assistance or advice because we know that sometimes there will be an unusual transaction such as purchase of a new company vehicle, it doesn’t happen all that often but it is particularly important that it is dealt with correctly to maximum benefit for the GST claim and loan interest is captured for tax deduction.

 

Think of us as your “help when you need it desk”.
