Did you know 80% of Australian businesses surveyed have experienced late or overdue payments in the past 12 months? According to CreditorWatch, these payment delays are putting real pressure on business cash flow.

Changes to SMSF borrowing rules are now in effect, restricting the types of property SMSFs can finance. Under the new rules, property acquired through a limited recourse borrowing arrangement (LRBA) must meet the business real property (BRP) definition.

The rules are more nuanced than a ban on residential property. Whether a property qualifies as BRP depends on its use, not simply its zoning or design, and it must be wholly and exclusively used for business purposes.

Existing LRBAs over non-BRP assets can continue and may be refinanced, while transitional rules may apply to arrangements entered into by 10 August 2026.

Beware the sharing-economy tax-time surprise!

More Australians are earning extra money through ride-sharing, short-term accommodation, freelance work and other online platforms. But with the ATO increasing its data-matching capabilities, it’s important to remember to declare this income at tax time.

If you’re earning income through the sharing economy, understanding your obligations can help avoid a future unwanted tax bill.

Payday Super is now the reality for Australian businesses. Just a few weeks in, how has the transition been for your organisation?

One of the biggest challenges we've seen so far isn't calculating super. It's making sure systems, processes and cash flow are all aligned so contributions reach employees' super funds on time, every pay cycle. With payments now generally required within seven business days of payday, even small delays can create compliance issues.

If you're still getting your head around the new rules, don't leave it to chance. The team at EPOCH Accounting can help you understand what you need to do to meet your obligations. Get in touch today. https://epochaccounting.com.au/contact-epoch-accounting/

ATO complaints are up 127%. That's nearly 3,000 complaints lodged with the Tax Ombudsman in just the first 10 months of the financial year, with tax debts, penalties and interest charges driving much of the increase.

If you're under pressure from an ATO tax debt, don't ignore it. Acting early can make a real difference, with more options available before interest and penalties continue to grow.

At EPOCH Accounting, we can help you navigate the process, liaise directly with the ATO on your behalf and work towards the best possible outcome. If you're concerned about a tax debt, get in touch with our team before the situation escalates. https://epochaccounting.com.au/contact-epoch-accounting/
