SPECIALIST TRADIES ACCOUNTANT AND ADVISOR

TRUSTED ACCOUNTANT FOR TRADIES

WE’RE IN THE BUSINESS OF MAKING YOURS A SUCCESS

Trades Work is among the most common occupations in Victoria. It is a lucrative business that often requires early starts, long hours, and physically demanding days. Because of this, most tradies tend to neglect the accounting and bookkeeping tasks necessary to make their business successful.

Craig Allen and Associates can take the pressures off of managing your books and attending to your reporting requirements. We are a team of accountants, tax agents, and business advisors who are equipped with in-depth knowledge and expertise to manage complex tax matters and sole trader requirements.

ACCOUNTING AND BOOKKEEPING

Bookkeeping and accounting is the language of business. Without it, businesses are prone to failure. We can accurately manage and process your business’ financial information so that you can focus on growth and other goals.

INDIVIDUAL AND BUSINESS TAX

Whether you’re in business or an individual taxpayer, we can help to simplify the taxation process, ensure tax compliance and improve your tax position.

ASIC COMPLIANCE

We can handle all your ASIC requirements, including setting up structures, attending to changes of directors and shareholders, and attending to your company annual statements.

SELF-MANAGED SUPER FUND (SMSFs)

We are experts at processing the financial statements for your SMSF, as well as arranging and liaising with SMSF auditors to ensure your fund’s compliance.

FINANCIAL PLANNING

We have several financial planners to whom we refer clients, as requested. We maintain close relationships with these planners to ensure the best independent advice and service.

BUSINESS CONSULTING & ADVICE

The most successful business owners utilise their accountants for business structuring, cash-flow management and growing their business. We offer effective high-level advice to improve business operations and increase profitability.

ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE FOR TRADIES

Having the right accounting software is critical to all tradies.

Effective accounting software provides an overview of financial data like purchase orders, job costing, profitability and areas where you are spending your hard-earned revenue. With good accounting software, these can all be processed in real-time.

We at Craig Allen and Associates can manage your whole accounting system from start to finish.

We can do as little or as much as you require. This includes processing all your transactions, reconciling your business bank accounts, preparing your BAS returns, attending to GST and PAYG, processing your superannuation obligations, and– most of all– using these financial data to give you quality advice on how to improve your business’s overall performance and profitability.

If you prefer to process your data, we can teach you the best way to use software such as Xero and MYOB.

TAX FOR TRADIES

Getting your tax obligations in order can improve your profitability and allow you to spend more on things that matter to you. More than preparing your tax returns, we are also experts on tradie tax deductions and providing strategies that can help you minimise tax.
