Copywriting
A good copywriter knows which words
trigger the feelings that compel people to make decisions. They write with
flair, making it easy for people to be drawn into what they are saying about
your business, services or products - see professional copywriting,
and an example of good copywriting for a
Mercedes Dealer, or not-so-good copy for a Used Mercedes dealer.
Finding a good Sydney tax accountant is like finding a good doctor, dentist or motor
mechanic - or lawyer for that matter.
They're hard to find, but when you do eventually find a good one, they're worth
gold.
A qualified and experienced accountant will ensure you claim everything you are
entitled to at tax time. There are deductions your tax accountant will think of
that you have. Items such as cleaning expenses for your office, furniture
depreciation, depreciation of your computer(s), and even "bonuses" for small
businesses like the Entrepreneurs Bonus.
Not only that, they will help to keep you on the "straight and narrow" so you
don't claim anything you are not entitled to. The tax office doesn't seem to
like that sort of thing and may impose harsh penalties if you try make claims
you are not entitled to.
A good example of how a tax accountant can help you is explaining the new
investment incentive scheme.
Did you know that up until December 2009, if you have a capital expenditure, you
can claim a whopping 50% of the purchase - and still claim the depreciation each
year?
Lets say you buy a new laptop computer valued at $3000.00 before December 2009.
Not only can you depreciate the value over a period of about 2 1/2 years, but
you can claim $1500 on top of that immediately* in your tax return.
The rewards are even bigger if you purchase a new motor vehicle**.
Lets say you buy a new Holden Commodore for $30,000. You can still depreciate
the car at about 18 1/2% per year, but you can claim an immediate benefit* of
$15,000. How good is that?
Please note that not every purchase qualifies as an eligible investment. For
example, unfortunately if you are building a website or purchasing software, you
will not be able to claim the extra 50%. Check with your accountant for a
complete list of eligible deductions.

* An immediate benefit as opposed to depreciated value. You will still have to
claim this in your 2008-2009 or 2009-2010 tax return.
** The incentive applies to NEW vehicles only - used cars and demonstrator
models are NOT included.
