Who requires this service?

This service is for entrepreneurs looking to set up a business or international businesses looking to set up in Australia. 

What is this service?

We take the time to work through your business objectives and goals. We devise solutions tailored to your circumstances and this normally starts with ensuring you have the right structures in place on day one. Having the right structure is important as the common areas we typically address upfront in any structure advice are:

  • Who are the intended shareholders / beneficiaries
  • Level of risk and asset protection required
  • Taxation outcomes (CGT, Income Tax etc.)
  • Ability to raise finance and attract outside investment
  • Who should be a Director and what are their duties
  • Cost and complexity considerations

On setup of the business we can advise you and handle the registration of various matters including:

  • GST
  • Payroll tax
  • Fringe Benefits Tax
  • PAYG Withholding
  • Payroll setup

Beyond setup of the business we provide commercial advice and accounting services from audit through to specialist financial reporting, local tax services and international tax advice. See our other services pages. 

Why Spry Roughley?

We bring expertise in privately owned business structure, strategy and advice. We take the time to understand your business and objectives. We ensure our advice is tailored to your individual circumstances and gives you the long-term flexibility in managing your business.

Beyond start-up we have the capability to continue to provide accounting services and proactive advice to assist you meeting your business goals.
