✨ Happy New Year! ✨
Here’s to a fresh year of clarity, growth, and keeping your numbers stress-free.
Thank you for trusting us with your books — we can’t wait to support you in 2026! 👩‍💻👩‍💻👩‍💻

I had a lovely time in Melbourne at the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers 2025 Summit and the LUCA Awards!

Back in Perth now and very busy on end of month and BAS work. 😊

I hope you all had a good start to the week!

✨ It’s that time again — End of Quarter! ✨
(July–September 2025 ✅)

If you’re a business owner, here are the 3 key tasks you’ll want to tick off your list:

☑️ BAS – Lodge & pay your Business Activity Statement on time
☑️ Payroll Tax – Double check your thresholds and reporting requirements
☑️ Superannuation – Make sure super contributions are paid by the due date

💡 Staying on top of these means fewer headaches later and keeps you compliant with the ATO.

If this list makes your eyes glaze over 😅 — don’t stress, that’s what we’re here for!
At The Accounts Ladies, we help small businesses stay organised, stress-free, and compliant each quarter.

📩 DM us if you’d like us to take care of your BAS, payroll, and super this quarter so you can get back to running your business.

While we support his underwear choice, that claim’s been denied! Un**es are a personal expense and can’t be claimed as a deduction 😉

The Superannuation Guarantee (SG) increased to 12% from 11.5% from the 1st July 2025.
Can you believe we are almost at the end of the first quarter for the new financial year! 🫣 Superannuation is due to land in your employees accounts no later than the 28th October 2025. Make sure you check now that your payroll is correctly calculating your employees super based off the new rate!

Do you know what’s considered a BAS Service? We’ve compiled a non-exhaustive list of over 42 different types of services. Check out which ones may or may not constitute a BAS service under the Tax Agent Services Act 2009: https://ow.ly/GfHa50WNWRb

I am out of office until the 28th July. Payroll will be processed as normal for clients with payroll on Wednesday & Friday this week.

I ask that you respect my privacy at this time. Thanks for your understanding.
