$2.54B claimable by SMEs

$2.54B claimable by SMEs

Business Advisory Services Update

A recent report by the Department of Industry, Science and Resources indicated that the estimated “refundable offset” for companies with an annual turnover under $20million was $2.54B.

This means that the total expenditure on eligible R&D activities by these companies – which would primarily be classified as SMEs – would be $5.83B.

This level of investment by SMEs highlights the significant R&D activities that are being conducted.

ESS BIZTOOLS will be presenting a webinar today – Research and Development – Do You Want to Know More? This webinar will highlight a number of items for consideration by accountants, including:

  • Are you advising clients R&D?
  • How does the R&D system operate?
  • ESS BIZTOOLS Research and Development Product System
  • R&D process flow
  • Getting ready to start
  • Undertaking R&D work
  • R&D offsets available – a “refundable offset” is available for companies with turnovers under $20 million
  • R&D offsets available for companies with turnovers over $20 million
  • R&D advice opens other opportunities for accountants

An awareness of R&D taxation offsets assists accountants to mentor clients on a range of other activities, including preparation of business plans, predictive accounting reports and advice on raising capital. ESS BIZTOOLS has product packages on each of these items to assist accountants.
