GST and BAS your remote bookkeeper Newcastle NSW handles

Australia has a Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 10 per cent. Your bookkeeper records GST on every eligible sale and purchase, reconciles the GST account each quarter and prepares your Business Activity Statement (BAS) for the ATO. They flag GST-free and input-taxed items so your BAS is accurate before lodgement.

Newcastle is New South Wales's second largest city with a strong mining, manufacturing and healthcare base. Key local sectors are mining, manufacturing, healthcare, education and professional services. Mining and manufacturing firms track materials costs, equipment billing and supplier invoices. Healthcare practices have patient billing and supplier invoices. Professional services firms track client billing and operating costs. Your bookkeeper handles all of these record types. Shifts run on AEST/AEDT so your bookkeeper is there when your Newcastle office is open.

Your bookkeeper uses Xero or MYOB. They send a brief weekly report. You pick the tool; they work in it.
