BAS Preparation and Lodgement

Helping You Sleep at Night

The BAS Agent You Can Trust

Providing your Business Activity Statement (BAS) to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) can be extremely stressful. If you have an annual turnover of $75,000 or more, you must register for GST and lodge quarterly BAS’s. As a small business owner, you are not required to have a BAS agent however, it is becoming increasingly important to do so.

Without professional advice, any mistakes you make could result in fines from the ATO or missing out on GST credits for your business. Right Click Business Consulting is the professional BAS agent you can trust.

Why You Need a BAS Agent

You no longer need to panic when it comes to lodging your BAS with the ATO. As your BAS agent, we manage everything for you. Being experts in our field, we advise you, provide you safe harbour, and act as your representative to the ATO.

Right Click provides you peace of mind as your BAS agent having minimum requirements such as:

A membership with a professional body e.g. the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers (ICB)
Being registered with the Tax Practitioners Board
Holding Cert IV Financial Services
Annual ongoing study
Lodging electronically and consistently on time

BAS Agent Lodgement Program

Lodging your own BAS can be intimidating as the ATO require many sections to be completed. Having your BAS agent represent you is beneficial as they may have additional time to finalise before lodgement.

At Right Click we run a series of custom reports as part of your BAS preparation to pick up any irregularities and anomalies. From here as your BAS agent, we can then lodge your Activity Statement for you with full confidence.

Code of Conduct

Your BAS agent is required to follow specific code of conduct measures to uphold their registration and ensure they comply with the rules, responsibilities and proper practices of a BAS Agent. Confidentiality, competence, and maintaining professional indemnity insurance cover, are the minimum requirements of your BAS agent.

If you’re not happy with the service you’re receiving from your agent, the Tax Practitioners Board (TPB) can review the agent to ensure they’re complying with the correct regulations and requirements.

Testimonials

“I was in complete denial about my books, and after realising that accountants weren’t the answer, I found Karen – and thank goodness I did! She helped explain everything, showed me how to manage my accounts easily and efficiently, and now I don’t need to worry. Karen is super easy to talk to and she never made me feel foolish.”

“It is nice to have a Bookkeeper who is very thorough and efficient, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Karen to my clients, family and friends as I know they would be well looked after.”

“I am always impressed with Karen’s attention to detail, conscientiousness and warmth and friendliness. It has been particularly gratifying to work with her - this is my first time in business and there's so much I don't know. Karen is kind, good at explaining things and she has been ever so patient integrating my practice management software into my Xero file. I would strongly encourage anyone to work with her.”

Do I have to register for GST if I’m not turning over $75,000 per year

You don’t have to register with the ATO unless your annual turnover is over $75,000. If you’d like to register your small business before it reaches this amount, it is your choice. You can’t claim the GST on any expenses while you’re not registered. Registering for GST requires that you lodge a quarterly BAS.

How do I keep track of all my receipts?

At Right Click Business Consulting, we use the Dext business and expense capture software. Dext automatically captures the information from your receipts and invoices, then automatically uploads the data into your accounting software. Attaching a copy of the paperwork into Xero, Dext simplifies the process for you, so you save time and the need for manual processing.
