Goodbye, Summer - Hello Autumn!

Well, it took a while to warm up but we did get to experience some Summer conditions and these may well continue into early Autumn too.

We need some rain to fill our water tanks and keep our gardens looking lush.

Can you believe that we are now in the last month of the first quarter of 2024 already?

This year will also go very quickly and that’s all the more reason to make sure we have our goals set so that we can work towards achieving them and get that sense of accomplishment and fulfilment that comes with reaching them.

Do you need some help with planning out the year ahead? Or need some accountability or motivation to be more successful in 2024?

If so, reach out to our Team and we will show you how our business coaching program – Chasers Getting ResultsTM – works.

The footy season is now here and I will be looking forward to seeing if the Blues can build on the successful 2023 finals appearances.

Starting the Dream – How to Avoid a Nightmare When You Start a Business – is scheduled to be officially launched later this month 2024 – more details to come…

Stage 3 Tax Cuts Now Official!

There may be some tax-saving opportunities for you with the recently legislated Stage 3 Tax Cuts.

The Federal Government announced that the Stage 3 Tax Cuts that are scheduled to begin on 1 July 2024 have now been passed.

SUMMARY OF THE CHANGES

These are the planned changes to tax rates for 2025:

As a result of these changes:

  • High-income earners earning $200,000 will have their proposed tax savings slashed from $9,075 to $4,529.
  • Individuals earning under $45,000 and not eligible for the original State 3 Tax Cuts will now benefit, with a tax rate of 16% being reduced from 19% – which is worth a maximum of $804 for someone earning $45,000 or above.
  • An individual earning $90,000 will receive a tax cut of $1,929 – up from $1,125 under the original Stage 3 Tax Cuts

TAX PLANNING ADVICE – Business Customers

By forecasting your expected 2024 income and tax payable for all individuals and entities in your family group, we can then develop strategies to “spread” your income across your family group in the most tax-effective way – and legally reduce your tax.

One of these strategies may be deferring income into the 2025 year so that you can take advantage of these updated Stage 3 Tax Cuts!

We will be contacting you after the 31st of March 2024 (once your March 2024 BAS is completed) to book your 2024 Tax Planning meeting.
