The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) allows you to arrange your financial affairs to keep your tax to a minimum. This is commonly known as tax planning.

This introductory workshop will explain the rules around tax planning so you can maximise your return and/or discuss strategies you may wish to implement with your accountant.

Having an up-to-date copy of your business accounts on hand for this session will be of benefit.
