Frequently Asked Questions
What records should I keep for my business?
You should keep invoices, receipts, bank statements, payroll summaries, BAS lodgements, and any documents related to income or deductions. These records support your tax return and prove compliance if audited. Digital or paper copies are acceptable, but they must be legible and accessible. Most records must be kept for at least five years. Consistent recordkeeping helps avoid mistakes, makes reporting easier, and saves time when it matters most.
What is the difference between an accountant and a bookkeeper?
A bookkeeper records daily financial transactions—like sales, purchases and payments—keeping your accounts balanced and up to date. An accountant interprets that data, prepares reports, lodges tax returns and offers advice on budgeting, structure and compliance. Bookkeeping focuses on data entry and organisation, while accounting focuses on strategy and reporting. Both roles are important, and together they provide a clear picture of your financial position throughout the year.
When does a hobby become a business for tax purposes?
A hobby becomes a business when there’s intention to make a profit, regular transactions, or a structured operation. If you advertise, have a business name, or rely on the income, it’s likely no longer just a hobby. Once it meets business criteria, you must declare income and may need to register for an ABN. The ATO provides guidelines to help decide, and getting it right avoids future compliance issues.
