$4.5 billion per year – the cost of cyber crime in Australia (AON): and data breaches are costing an average of $2.16m. It seems surprising that so many organisations do not have a clear understanding of their exposure to cyber fraud and the impact it can have on their company.

The Australian Government estimates almost 700, 000 businesses have experienced a cyber crime, 60% of these attacks were targeted at small to medium size business with the average cost of a cyber crime being in excess of $275, 000.
Since its inception, insurance has always served to manage risk. In the 17th century, a fire could destroy a shop front, records, and an entire business. Fire insurance served as a means of managing this risk both financially and actively, as insurers owned fire brigades.

It starts from 1 January 2018. The definition of small business is the “CGT small business entity” which is one with an aggregated turnover of less than $2 million.

The Federal politicians have done what they had been elected to do. They prepared a budget that looks pleasing to the electorate. They have increased some taxes; extra 0.5% for Medicare levy and the levy on the evil banks. This is so they do not have to tackle the hard bit of reducing govern…
The ATO still has not worked out how to get taxpayers to pay but it is trying various methods. In the end, it will just bankrupt individuals or liquidate companies. This will harm small businesses the most as they tend to use the ATO as a “lender of last resort.”

Parliament in record time passed the changes to superannuation that were announced in May and September. They all start from 1 July 2017. At present the size of a member’s benefit when in pension phase has no relevance. However from 1 July 2017, there is an initial limit of $1.6 million.
Your principal place of residence is exempt as is land used for primary production. All other land that is owned at midnight on 31 December is taxed. The first $549,000 is tax free. The tax on the excess of this number is 1.6% plus $100. If the value is over $3,357,000 then the tax is 2% ove…

The financial press is full of stories about the ending of the accountants’ exemption in respect of Self Managed Superannuation Funds. Most clients probably will not have read these articles as they are not very stimulating.

You could claim immediate deduction for up to $20, 000 of depreciable assets. If you are a small business, aggregated turnover of less than $2 million, then you can claim an immediate deduction from 12 May 2015 to 30 June 2017 for any depreciable assets with a cost less than $20,000. If you …
However employers can also get into a jolly mess during this season. Human issues: It’s wise to remember that the location of your Christmas party is considered part of your work place.
As news of an early start to the bush fire season is reported in the media, we tend in Sydney to see it as a concern to those in rural areas. Memories are short! Think back to Sydney in January 1994 and then again to Canberra in January 2003.
Last week AbleOwl conducted 2 days of Excel training for SMEs in our boardroom. They do this a few times a year.
I do not want to pay tax, so I will not make a profit. This is a common misconception of people that have poor cash flow and do not understand correctly their finances.
When retirement is on the horizon it’s quite common for people to start taking a more active interest in their savings, partly triggered by the fear that they will not have enough to maintain the lifestyle they currently enjoy.
There is some housekeeping that needs attention before the end of the year. You can only write off plant and equipment if it has been disposed of or scrapped. So do not keep a broken machine in a corner, throw it in the bin and claim any written down value.
We currently have low interest rates, a dollar that has fallen from a high against the USD that we have not seen for 40 years, low inflation and this has caused both the share market and the property market to go up rapidly.

We’re wrapping up the year on a positive note having just completed the audits of the financial statements of 2 of the charities we support, both of which are very much part of the Ku-ring-gai community.
When most people reach retirement age, they’re still relatively fit and agile and quite capable of managing their own finances.
If you’re lucky enough to love what you do, you won’t have to consider when to retire. But for most of us, George Foreman’s sentiments ring true : “The question isn’t at what age I want to retire, it’s at what income”.
For some time now, government subsidiaries such as the Australian Bureau of Statistics and The Productivity Commission have been releasing a stream of studies on “life expectancy”.
Each tax time brings changes and this year is no different. It’s important to be aware of the changes, what they mean to you, how they will affect your net income for the year and to look at ways to ensure you minimise the tax you need to pay.
