Tax time is coming fast and many business owners are asking the same question:
“What should I buy before EOFY?”
The answer is not “anything you can claim.”
EOFY spending should be strategic. The goal is to invest in things that support your business, improve cash flow, and prepare you for the new financial year.
In this carousel, we cover smart EOFY purchase ideas, including:
✔ Business equipment your team actually needs
✔ Software and systems that reduce admin
✔ Eligible prepaid expenses to manage cash flow
✔ Payroll and super changes to prepare for
✔ Why timing matters before making EOFY purchases
A few important reminders for Australian business owners:
✔ The $20,000 instant asset write-off may apply to eligible small businesses, but the asset must be ready for business use by the required deadline.
✔ The Super Guarantee rate increased to 12% from 1 July 2025, so payroll budgets and systems need to be updated.
✔ Not every EOFY purchase is automatically deductible, so always check before spending.
Before you buy, ask yourself:
Will this help the business operate better?
Is it genuinely business-related?
Can I keep proper records for it?
Have I checked the timing and tax rules?
EOFY does not have to be stressful when you plan early.
