10 Ways to Reduce Your Tax

By: Lawrence Business Management

 

  • Don't rush in to buy or sell assets without seeking advice about Capital Gains Tax [CGT] consequences.
  • Prepare interim accounts and projections prior to the end of the year to allow time for tax planning.
  • Use private companies to access the corporate tax rate of 30%.
  • Use trusts to spread income across the family and access their low marginal rates.
  • The new simplified tax system allows eligible businesses to increase tax deductions.
  • Delay income and bring expenses forward.
  • Make sure your business is structured to allow maximum access to small business CGT concessions.
  • Keep an up to date vehicle logbook to ensure maximum deductability of motor vehicle expenses.
  • Use superannuation to access a 15% tax rate. If you want to control your own funds consider a self managed superfund.
  • Make sure all employee super is paid before 30 June each year.
