TAX CHANGES HAPPEN

For small businesses with as few as one or two employees, keeping an eye on the ever-changing tax legislation landscape can be a formidable challenge. It’s not just about keeping up with changes passed through Parliament; every court decision can potentially set new precedents, altering the interpretation of existing laws overnight.

This dynamic environment underscores the critical importance of having a dedicated professional to watch for, and manage, these complexities.

Enter the professional team at Hills Accountants in Hobart. With over 15 years of experience and a team of skilled and highly qualified professionals, they are perfectly positioned to watch and act for changes that could cause an unwary business owner all kinds of strife.

Take, for instance, the recent changes to personal income tax rates and thresholds set to take effect from July 1, 2024. For small businesses, these changes are not just numbers; they're pivotal in planning their financial strategies.

Previously, the tax rate for incomes between $18,201 and $45,000 was 19%. From July 2024, this will drop to 16%. Similarly, other thresholds and rates are adjusting, which can significantly affect the take-home pay of employees and the payroll strategies of businesses.
