Why you should outsource payroll?

Cost of outsourcing vs time to do your own bookkeeping

Have you considered the time it takes to do your own bookkeeping; it far outweighs the cost of outsourcing?

If you think about it….consider your hourly rate x multiply by the amount of time each week that you do bookkeeping, from payroll to BAS to entering data.

Would you think it would be 5 hours per week?

It would probably be more.

You are probably averaging at least 10 hours or more a week to bookkeeping.

If you multiply that by your hourly rate, you would be surprised the amount of money it is costing you.

Plus, are you a bookkeeper yourself?

Probably not.

Why wouldn’t you outsource to an expert?

Someone that has had over 20 years’ experience like Maree Punzet has?

Where will people spend their money in 2022?

This one is a difficult question to answer, but I feel personally it will be in construction, building, real estate. Many people have been unable to move house because of border closures, people are living in tents, in people’s backyards. Many people will be spending money on rent/mortgages, renovations, building costs because of the demand for many people, is finding a place to live.

During the lockdowns, people have been spending money on food, but with the borders opening in the New Year, I feel the construction industry will increase even more because many people just want to leave the state they live, the house they live, because of the countless lockdowns.

If you work in these areas of building, construction, real estate, let me know because this is when you need a bookkeeper.

Once you outsource your Bookkeeping, you will never go back to doing it yourself.

Are you ready for 2022?

Why would I be asking a question like that? Simply because it’s only 3 months away and many businesses are either ramping up or wrapping up their work in the lead up to Christmas and the New Year.

I know many business owners holding off putting on more staff until 2022 because of lockdowns and border closures, but once the New Year is upon us, people will need to outsource their bookkeeping with the influx of new employees, paperwork, superannuation, payroll.

Don’t forget Bookkeeping is an important part of your business, so get ready for 2022 and give me a call.

Have you completed your TAX return or are you putting it off in the too hard basket?

Are you like many people out there thinking, oh I can leave it to next year to do my Tax Return, but you keep putting it off? I hear this all the time. I realise time is precious and it certainly is with the way the world has been in the last 18 months, but you should never put off doing your Tax Return.

The Prime Minister has removed the $10,000 liquid asset test from the COVID-19 Disaster payment

Did you know before Thursday last week, eligible applicants for the COVID disaster payment were subjected to a liquid asset means test to prove they had less than $10,000 worth of liquid assets, like shares & savings?

Now the Prime Minister said the liquid asset test applied to payments of $325 or $500 would be lifted for those who apply for the payment as a result of having missed work in NSW, and residents of other states, should any lockdowns persist.

NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has asked the state for the Job Keeper to be reinstated on Thursday, ongoing discussions and options are on the table.

‘In addition to the asset test changes, the Morrison government suspended mutual obligation requirements for Greater Sydney residents receiving welfare payments, like JobSeeker’
‘The announcements from both Premier Berejiklian and Prime Minister Morrison come less than 24 hours after Treasurer Josh Frydenberg knocked back the state’s request for a return of JobKeeper’
It will be interesting to see what happens.
