How We Help

 

As a small business owner, it is very easy to become overwhelmed and to let your financial management slip. If you are constantly stressed because of money or you wishing you had real clarity and better control of your business numbers, Straight Forward Accounting Solutions can help.

Let us help you by auditing your current systems, reconciling your accounts, helping you understand where your money goes each month and giving you your time back.

Choose one or more of our services and create a business that thrives.

 

 

Bookkeeping Strategy Session

As a business owner, you can’t be expected to know it all.

If the bookkeeping side of things is confusing for you and you’re worried you’re not doing things correctly, this session will help you understand the basics and identify what you need to do so you are in control in this area.

You’ll meet with Lisa Stoneham, an experienced and qualified bookkeeper, who will demystify the day to day financial management side of running a business. As a result, you’ll save hours and find it so much easier to stay on top of your bookkeeping yourself.

This is a 1 hour session, conducted remotely via Zoom.

Xero Health Check

Xero is marketed as the simple solution for small business accounting but when you’re spinning a dozen ‘business owner plates’ every day, it is easy to let things fall through the cracks and fail to take all the right steps.

If you don’t use Xero the right way, you will end up with unidentified expenses, payments that can’t be reconciled and balance sheets that make no sense. As a result, you will have no idea where you stand financially.

Let Straight Forward Accounting Solutions untangle your Xero account with a health check.

Who is this service for?

This health check is ideal for any business owner currently using Xero accounting software who is looking to get the most optimal use of the platform.

After your check, you’ll feel more confident that you are managing your bookkeeping in the most effective and efficient way so you can access accurate and up to date information about your financial status.

 

Xero Training

Learn from a Xero Certified Advisor.

When you start a business, you will hear plenty of people saying, “Just use Xero!”

It definitely makes sense to use this cloud-based platform for your accounting but it can feel overwhelming to figure it out yourself, especially when you are trying to run a business.

Straight Forward Accounting Solutions has created Xero Training to make it easy for you to make the most of Xero and keep it up to date yourself.

This is a 2 hour session conducted on-site at your premises (within the Bayside area of Melbourne) or online via Zoom specific to your needs.

 

Xero Set-up

Set up and implement Xero for your business

Too busy to get Xero up and running? Not a problem!

Let the experts at Straight Forward Accounting handle the setting up of this efficient cloud-based accounting platform so you can focus on other things.

 

Remedial Accounting

Are your business finances all over the place? Are you always confused about how much money you have and how much you owe?

Straight Forward Accounting Solutions can help.

We know you’re not a financial expert and we don’t expect you to be. It’s never too late to take back control so get help from a specialist who can help you find a clear way forward.

This service sets a clear and accurate base for your next steps giving you confidence and peace of mind. After going through the process, you’ll be able to visit your tax accountant with balanced books and an answer to every question.

 

Regular Financial Management Packages

No ordinary accountants.

Our expert advisors are passionate about your business success.

 

Accounting, humanised.

We believe business is the backbone of society. So we help create businesses that contribute positively to the lives of their owners and the communities in which they operate.

The figures are just the starting point; they indicate past performance. Their true value lies in how we use them to drive your business forward and achieve your vision for the future.

Audit & Assurance

We’ll tell you ‘why’ not just ‘what’.

Our emphasis on understanding makes our audit methodology unique – understanding the business, the owner and the balance sheet. Our audit approach has greater emphasis on systems, risk, reconciliation and accounting policies than the old traditional approach and everything we do we do with your goals in mind. We produce an audit service that is wanted, valued and needed.

 

Business Advisory

Your commercial sounding board.

We offer a holistic approach to business and financial advice which ALWAYS has your business goals at the centre.

To operate a successful business you don’t just need to be compliant, you need honest, reliable financial strategies coupled with innovative, proactive and practical commercial advice. That’s what we provide.

Our team consists of specialists who will partner with you to deliver tailored services. They can work as an extension of your team in an outsourced role, or as a regular advisor.

Regardless of what stage you’re at in your business journey – just beginning, growing or selling a business – an experienced business advisor will be enormously beneficial in ensuring you maximise success.

 

Business Recovery & Insolvency

The right advice at the right time.

Recognising – and admitting – that your business is in financial difficulty is not easy. Brushing the problems under the carpet may in fact cost a lot more in the long run than proactively taking action and investing in some help.

Seeking advice at the right time is crucial. Early assessment of a potential insolvency may actually save a business.

Our specialist business recovery and insolvency team are equipped to assist you with matters such as personal bankruptcy, voluntary liquidation, receivership, provisional liquidation and negotiation with creditors.

 

Corporate Finance

Diligent, experienced advisors.

The ASV Wadeson team has decades of experience in corporate finance in a wide range of industry sectors. Whilst we do work with large Australian and multi-national companies we get a real buzz out of leveraging our expertise to help fast-growing startups and SMEs, because we can be hands-on and make an immediate impact.

Our team is highly skilled at delivering the following corporate finance services:

  • Mergers & Acquisitions
  • Capital Raising
  • Acquisition Due Diligence
  • Financial Modelling
  • Valuation Services

 

Taxation

We know tax, so you don’t have to!

With a complex and ever-changing taxation system, Australian businesses are often at a loss as to how to understand and comply. ASVWadeson taxation advisors offer up to date, expert knowledge and advice to assist individuals and businesses to not only ensure compliance but also maximise opportunities.

We help you to get on with the business of doing what you love. Our thorough approach is tailored to your needs, based on your goals, and ensures you’re equipped to make effective choices.

No matter what your situation, the earlier you call us, the earlier we can prepare a smooth approach to handling your tax obligations, and the sooner your finances will thrive.

 

Marketing

Practical advice with implementation support.

Businesses who are still centred on their products, rather than their customers, are destined to fail. Adopting a marketing mindset is fundamental to surviving in today’s challenging and extremely competitive business environment. Without a strategic marketing focus your business is likely to flounder.

ASV Wadeson specialise in producing practical and comprehensive marketing plans to help grow and develop your business. We work with you to determine the current functioning of the business and particular areas for growth and goals that you want to achieve. The marketing plan will provide detailed analysis of your business, the current market and a plan for future growth with the recommended actions. We are also able to assist you in implementing the marketing plan to ensure you receive the most benefit possible from your investment in your businesses future.

QuickBooks used to be the top accounting software in the industry until a new accounting solution based out of New Zealand was introduced known as Xero. While Xero has still not been able to match QuickBooks with regards to functionality, it is definitely a formidable opponent.

Xero helps keep your finances at your fingertips from any part of the globe and at any given time.

Who Should Use Xero?

Xero is an excellent solution for contractors, sole proprietors, small business owners, and even freelancers looking to implement a simple-to-use accounting system. At Success Accounting Group, we have implemented Xero for most of our clients. We also use it ourselves in our business and in the management of our investments since 2012.

It would be an understatement to say that Xero has many features. It is powerful accounting software targeting small business owners primarily. Whether you would like to track and monitor business finances while on the move, from your local coffee shop, between meetings, or from the beach, Xero is your best bet. It gives you the features, flexibility, and power to do so if that is what you want.

Xero lets you accept PayPal, credit card, and debit card payments from your clients and send them online invoices, which helps you get paid faster. You can add your logo to the invoice templates provided by Xero or customize your own invoice design. The automated payment reminders are a feature that sets Xero apart. You can customize automated emails to customers and clients to get paid faster.

Bank Account Updates

Xero lets you receive automatic bank updates and reconcile your accounts. The software imports all your credit card and bank transactions every day automatically.

Xero also lets you set up recurring bill payments each month or in a period of your choosing. You can even assign costs directly to customers and their bills.

Tracking Inventory

Xero allows business owners to manage stock control functions and track their inventory.

You can see details including stock levels, profit margins per item, date of stocking, average purchase cost, warehouse stock values, and various other data points that help you use the information to make important business decisions regarding the product pricing and inventory ordering of the company.

 

Self-managed Superannuation Funds

Of the $1.23 trillion invested in super at 30 June 2010, $390.8 billion was in self managed super funds(SMSFs). That’s 31.8% of all superannuation funds, with SMSFs now representing the largest slice of the super industry.

For many Australians, SMSFs offer 4 major advantages:

  1. More control over investments.
  2. Greater investment flexibility.
  3. Generally lower fees than industry and retail funds.
  4. On average, better performance than industry and retail funds.

More control and greater flexibility over investments

SMSF members can choose where their retirement savings are invested, with options including listed shares, bonds, listed investment companies , exchange traded funds and direct property.

This flexibility in investment options allows SMSF members to actively manage their investments. With a hands-on investment approach, SMSF members can quickly adjust their portfolios as markets change.

Lower fees and better performance

A Commonwealth Government report titled A Statistical Summary of Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (Dec 2009), based on ATO and APRA data, found SMSF members generally pay lower fees and that, on average, SMSF investments performed better than all other super funds over 2006, 2007 and 2008.

How a SMSF could benefit you

Depending on your individual situation, the advantages of an SMSF may include:

  • tailored tax management on investment income and capital gains
  • greater flexibility in investment choices and asset selection
  • control over your total investment portfolio, with the ability to take account of the risk profile of all your assets, including those held outside superannuation
  • the ability to pool your resources with up to 4 fund members with similar financial objectives, such as family members
  • maximum flexibility in establishing and managing pensions, including account based, transition to retirement and term allocated pensions
  • greater flexibility for accessing Centrelink benefits such as the age pension
  • investing in direct property
  • the ability to transfer personally owned listed shares, business real property and managed funds directly into your superannuation fund, and
  • the ability to own business real property in your superannuation fund, to assist your business cash flow.

CLOUD ACCOUNTING

What is Cloud Accounting?

Cloud accounting is best described as ‘online accounting’. Instead of installing and running your accounting software on your local computer you access the software and your data files over the internet.  Your data is securely stored ‘in the cloud’ rather than on your local hard drive or server which means you have access to your financial data from anywhere, at any time, using any device including your mobile phone or tablet. All you need is an internet connection. Most people now use the cloud for applications like internet banking.

Is cloud accounting right for you?

We aim to help you unlock the financial potential of your business. One of the foundation stones in your business ‘wall’ is your accounting software and one size certainly doesn’t fit all businesses. There are a number of software packages on the market and they vary in functionality and price. Before we recommend any accounting software package we always ask two key questions:

  1. What does your business need? Payroll, inventory, debtors, creditors, invoicing or a full blown general ledger so you can produce your own financial statements?
  2. What is your level of accounting skill?

As such, your choice of accounting software will depend on your business needs and level of accounting skill. For that reason we support a number of programs including cloud based solutions.  Increasingly our clients are opting for cloud based bookkeeping solutions because of the flexibility. You can run your business from home, work or on the go. The cloud also has the benefit of 24/7 access and all you need is an internet connection and your password.

You can access your financial data via the internet and invite your accountant or bookkeeper to view your accounts at the same time. This means you can get bookkeeping assistance and valuable advice in real-time. Log in online anytime, anywhere on your Mac, PC, tablet or smart phone to get a real-time view of your cashflow. Your data is completely secure, even if your computer is lost or stolen.  Your data is automatically backed up and stored at various secure offsite locations.

All your invited users have access to the latest version of your financial data and you never need to worry about installing software or updates. Your data is never out-of-date and provided your subscription is current, software updates are automatically available when you login. Large upfront fees and switching costs are eliminated using cloud based solutions. These services run on a pay as you go basis so you only pay for what you use and the costs are 100% tax deductible.

Ultimately the idea is to let you spend more time working ON your business and less time on your record keeping. If you would like a demonstration of a cloud based software solution to assess the suitability to your business, contact us today.
