Awards & recognitions

Why Financial Statements are Important

  • Profit and loss statements can provide identify your business financial performance
  • Balance sheets offer a snapshot of your business assets and liabilities at a specific point in time

Financial statement preparation is important for your business to determine if the business can pay its debts when they are due (solvency).

Who Needs Financial Statements?

Financial statement preparation without any prior experience can be stressful, inaccurate and ultimately waste a lot of precious time that can instead be dedicated to focusing on your business.

Not only can we prepare your financial statements, using the insights, but we can also advise you on:

  • Your business direction and health
  • Address business shortcomings
  • Potential future growth

Who Our Financial Statement Preparation Suits

We prepare annual financial statements for sole traders, partnerships, companies and trusts. For most small businesses, that means a profit and loss statement and a balance sheet for the year to 30 June, and they are the basis for the tax return.

Owners need them outside tax time too. Lenders often ask for recent financial statements with a loan application, and they are the clearest record of how the business performed when you plan the year ahead or talk to a buyer or investor.

From Your Records to Finished Statements

We work from your accounting file in Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks, or from bank statements if you do not use software. We reconcile the accounts at 30 June, record year-end adjustments such as depreciation, and check balances such as loans, amounts owed to and by the business, and stock on hand.

Where something does not add up, we ask you before the statements are finalised. We also go through the statements with you, including anything that has changed a lot from the previous year.

The work happens after 30 June, once the year’s transactions are recorded. Because we are a registered tax agent, the returns that rely on the statements, such as a company tax return or trust tax return, can use the ATO lodgement program, which gives later due dates for many returns.

If your books are not up to date, our bookkeeping service can bring them current first, so the statements start from reconciled figures.

Book a free 20-minute meeting with one of our accountants for a later date, or call 1300 411 022. If a lender needs statements soon and you want to talk straight away, a paid priority appointment is available on our booking page.

Frequently Asked Questions

A profit and loss statement for the financial year and a balance sheet showing what the business owns and owes at 30 June. We prepare them from your records, and they are the starting point for your tax return.

Most small proprietary companies do not need to lodge financial reports with ASIC, unless an exception applies, such as a direction from ASIC or from shareholders. Every business still needs records that explain its transactions, and the company tax return is prepared from its accounts.

Access to your accounting file, or your bank statements for the year, plus loan statements, details of assets you bought or sold, and any amounts customers owed you or you owed suppliers at 30 June. If you hold stock, we also need its value at 30 June.

The ATO generally requires business records to be kept for five years from when they were prepared or obtained, or when the transaction was completed, whichever is later. ASIC requires companies to keep financial records for seven years.

Book a free 20-minute meeting with one of our accountants, or call 1300 411 022. Statements are prepared after 30 June and before your tax return, so we can plan the timing around your lodgement due date.
