SOLE TRADER AND UNSURE ABOUT BAS?

Understanding your BAS obligations isn’t always straightforward, particularly when your business is growing or your circumstances change.

A few common situations where BAS may be required:
👉 You’re registered for GST
👉 Your turnover is getting close to $75k
👉 You registered for GST earlier than expected
👉 You’re doing rideshare or similar work
👉 You have staff and need to manage PAYG withholding

With the September quarter BAS due 28 October, now is a good time to make sure your bookkeeping is up to date and everything is ready to lodge.

At Shoebox Books Croydon, we can help with:
✅ BAS preparation & lodgement
✅ Bookkeeping & reconciliations
✅ GST, payroll & PAYG

Not sure what applies to your business?

Do you know how your business is tracking — and what that could mean for your tax?

According to a 2026 Xero survey, 35% of Australian small business owners said they don’t often know whether they made a profit in the previous month.
Understanding your numbers throughout the year can give you a clearer picture of your expected tax position, help you prepare for upcoming obligations and give you time to make informed decisions before tax time arrives.

As registered tax agents we can help you understand where you stand, what you may need to prepare for and what tax planning opportunities may be available to you — so you’re not waiting until the end of the financial year to start the conversation.
Don’t just prepare for tax time. Plan for it!

Ready to get clearer on your tax position? Let’s talk.

BAS STILL SITTING ON YOUR TO-DO LIST?

You’ve got customers to look after, jobs to finish and a business to run — the last thing you need is to spend your spare time trying to get your BAS sorted.
GST, PAYG, invoices, payroll and bank reconciliations all need to be accounted for before your BAS is ready to lodge.

💡 That’s where we come in. At Shoebox Books Croydon as registered BAS agents, we can help keep your books up to date and manage your BAS lodgements, helping you avoid last-minute headaches and giving you a clearer picture of where your business stands.
Leave your bookkeeping and BAS lodgements to us, so you can get back to doing what you do best! 😊

Business and personal spending all coming from the same account? 💳

A coffee here, a business subscription there, a quick personal purchase… before you know it, your transactions are all mixed together and your books are much harder to follow.

Keeping your business transactions separate makes it easier to:
✓ Track income and expenses
✓ Reconcile your accounts
✓ Prepare for BAS and tax time
✓ See how your business is really performing

💡 Quick tip: Use a dedicated account or payment method for your business and keep personal spending separate.

The structure you chose when you first started your business may have been exactly right at the time. But as your business grows and changes, it’s worth checking whether that structure still suits where you are today.
You may now be earning more, employing staff, investing in assets, involving family or business partners, or planning for the next stage of your business.

It may be time for a review if:

🔹 Your income or profits have increased significantly
👥 You’ve taken on employees
🏢 You’re investing in significant business assets
🤝 A partner or family member is becoming involved
📈 You’re planning to expand, bring in another owner or eventually sell
Your business structure can affect how you’re taxed, how profits are distributed, your reporting obligations and your options for the future.

💡 That’s where Shoebox Books & Tax Croydon can help.
As registered tax agents, we can review your current structure, advise you on the tax implications and help you understand whether your structure still suits your business and your tax position.

Business changed? It might be time for a structure review. Let’s chat.

⚠️ ATO penalties have increased — staying on top of your obligations matters!

With the current penalty unit now $330, keeping on top of your reporting and lodgement obligations is more important than ever.

For small businesses, failure-to-lodge penalties can increase the longer an obligation remains overdue — so keeping your books accurate, knowing what’s due and lodging on time matters.

At Shoebox Books Croydon, we’re Registered BAS Agents, helping you stay on top of:

📚 Accurate and up-to-date bookkeeping
🧾 BAS preparation and lodgement
💰 GST and PAYG obligations
👥 Payroll and reporting
📅 Important lodgement dates

Less time worrying about what’s due — and more confidence that your obligations are being looked after.

You know the one… 👀
You’re going through your accounts and there it is — a transaction from three months ago that you have absolutely no idea about. 😅

You check the description. Search your emails. Dig through the receipts… still nothing. 🔎

“I’ll remember what that was for.”
A few weeks later… “Hmm, what was this again?”

When you’re busy running a business, it happens! But keeping your bookkeeping up to date means fewer mysteries, organised records and a much clearer picture of what’s happening with your numbers.
At Shoebox Books Croydon, we do more than just crunch numbers. We help keep your books organised and give you the financial information you need to make more informed business decisions.

Need a hand keeping your books in order? Get in touch with us today.

Grand Final weekend ready 🏉🍿

Only in Victoria do we get a public holiday just to get ready for the Grand Final 😂

The family is ready, the TV is on and of course the homemade popcorn is ready too.

One of the lovely things about working with local families and small businesses is that we get to share the same Melbourne moments.

Enjoy the long weekend everyone, from Shoebox Bookkeeping & Tax Croydon ❤️

Now the important question…
Who are you backing this Grand Final? 🏆

25/09/2026

Our little Finance Team in training 😂

5 year old Manager: supervising the work
3 year old Junior: doing the push ups 💪

Looks like he already understands how a good business works: clear instructions, good supervision and getting the job done!

Running a business can feel a bit like this too. You focus on doing what you do best while we help keep your bookkeeping, BAS and tax organised behind the scenes.

📚 Bookkeeping
🧾 BAS & GST
💰 Tax Returns
