๐ŸŽ‚ Happy Birthday to Sari Weymouth! ๐ŸŽ‰

Today weโ€™re celebrating Sari, one of our Accountants here at BHT Partners.

Sari joined the BHT team in May 2024 and brings a wealth of experience across accounting, taxation, audit, compliance, and superannuation. In 2025, she achieved an important professional milestone by completing her CPA qualification, further strengthening the expertise she provides to our clients.

Outside of work, Sari enjoys spending time with family and friends, building Lego with her children, keeping active at the gym, and getting outdoors for bike rides and walks. ๐Ÿšฒ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

From all of us at BHT Partners, we hope you have a fantastic birthday and a wonderful year ahead! ๐Ÿฅณ

The BHT Partners team recently came together to celebrate the end of another successful financial year with our EOFY dinner at Estelle.

It was a wonderful opportunity to reflect on everything we've achieved together, enjoy some incredible food, and spend time together outside the office.

While we're passionate about supporting our clients, we're equally proud of the team behind everything we do. Building strong relationships, celebrating milestones, and taking time to recognise our people are all part of what makes BHT Partners a great place to work.

A big thank you to our entire team for another fantastic year. We're excited for what the new financial year has in store!

Should you operate as a sole trader, company, partnership, or trust?

Choosing the wrong structure can lead to:
โ— Higher tax
โ— Reduced asset protection
โ— Less flexibility as your business grows
โ— Costly restructuring later on

The right business structure can help minimise tax, improve cash flow, protect personal assets, and support future growth ๐Ÿš€

The RBAโ€™s new payment reforms will introduce major changes for Australian small businesses, including:
๐Ÿ’ณ A ban on card surcharges
๐Ÿ“‰ Lower interchange fees
๐Ÿ” Greater fee transparency from payment providers

For many SMEs, this could simplify pricing and reduce card acceptance costs.

But businesses that currently rely on surcharges may need to review:
๐Ÿ”น Pricing structures
๐Ÿ”น Margins
๐Ÿ”น Cash flow planning
๐Ÿ”น Merchant fee arrangements

Without proper planning, businesses risk absorbing costs that could quietly erode profit margins.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Swipe through to understand whatโ€™s changing and what your business should review before October 2026.

28/06/2026

After many years of dedication, leadership, and service to our clients and team, Melinda McAllister will retire as Partner and Director of BHT Partners on 30 June 2026.

Melinda has been a Director of BHT Partners since 2007 and has spent more than 35 years helping business owners navigate their financial, taxation, and business challenges with confidence.

Throughout her time at BHT Partners, Melinda has played an important role in shaping our firm, leading our Audit & Assurance team, building long-standing client relationships, and fostering a positive workplace culture where people can learn, grow, and succeed.

While Melinda is stepping down from her leadership role, we're pleased that she will continue supporting BHT Partners in a part-time advisory capacity.

On behalf of everyone at BHT Partners, we would like to sincerely thank Melinda for her outstanding contribution, commitment, and leadership over the years.

We wish her all the very best as she enters this exciting new chapter and hope she enjoys more time with family, friends, and everything she loves most.

๐Ÿ’™ Thank you, Melinda.

From 1 July, employers will need to calculate super using ๐—ค๐˜‚๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ณ๐˜†๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—˜๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด๐˜€ (QE) instead of Ordinary Time Earnings (OTE).

That means some payroll payments that previously did not attract super may now need to be included.

Examples that may count under QE include:
โœ… Commissions
โœ… Salary sacrifice amounts
โœ… Directorsโ€™ fees
โœ… Some contractor payments

Still generally excluded:
โŒ Overtime payments
โŒ Unused leave on termination
โŒ Expense allowances

๐Ÿ‘‰ If your payroll system has not been reviewed recently, now is a good time to check whether your setup is ready for Payday Super.

BHT Partners can help your business prepare for the transition and avoid reporting or compliance issues later.
