SMSF trustees: your end of year checklist ✅
30 June is just around the corner. A few timely checks now can protect your tax position and avoid costly oversights later.

Key things to action before 30 June:
💰 Contributions - ensure all contributions are received by the fund before 30 June, whether for tax deductibility or post-tax personal contribution limits
📊 Asset valuations - all SMSF assets must be valued at market value as at 30 June, with supporting evidence on file for audit purposes
📁 Records & audit readiness - get your documentation in order now to keep your audit on track

Don't leave it to the last minute - some of these items take time to organise, especially valuations for property or unlisted assets.

🔍 Interesting insight from the Federal Budget...

Headline inflation is forecast to sit at 5% through to the June quarter 2026, still well above the RBA's target band and a reminder that cost pressures haven't gone away for households and businesses.

The year’s budget has been released against a backdrop of significant economic challenges, including global fuel price shocks, persistent inflation, rising interest rates and growing concerns around housing affordability. These themes are reflected in the measures that have been announced by the Treasurer.

It's worth keeping an eye on how this plays out, particularly for businesses managing margins and cash flow planning.

Our May newsletter covers this and more - find it on our website here: https://www.horizoncc.com.au/resources

Central Coast Economic Breakfast with the Treasurer

This morning, our Director Amanda attended the Central Coast Economic Breakfast featuring Treasurer Jim Chalmers.

The event came at a significant time, following yesterday’s announcement regarding changes to the initially proposed Capital Gains Tax (CGT) policy in the Budget. The session provided valuable insights into Australia’s economic outlook, tax policy, and the issues shaping the future of businesses and investors.

At Horizon Accounting Solutions, we are committed to staying informed on developments that may impact our clients. Amanda will be communicating key takeaways and practical implications from the breakfast to help our clients navigate these changes with confidence

Family trusts (also known as discretionary trusts) are highly popular structures in Australia for business ownership, asset protection, and wealth management.

Starting 1 July 2028, the Federal Budget introduces a 30% minimum tax on discretionary trusts, and the resulting tax credit passed to beneficiaries will be non-refundable.

This means that if a trust distributes income to an individual beneficiary whose marginal tax rate (plus the Medicare levy) is below 30%, they will lose the excess credit. Furthermore, corporate beneficiaries will not receive any credit at all for tax paid by the trustee.

It's important to note this has not yet been written into legislation, it remains a proposal. There may be substantial changes between now and 2028, it is worth being aware of what it could mean for your structure if it does proceed.

Our May Federal Budget newsletter covers this and more, find it on our website here: https://www.horizoncc.com.au/resources
