Questions people ask

What does a business accountant do?
A business accountant manages the financial records, reporting, and compliance obligations of a business. This includes preparing financial statements, lodging BAS, managing payroll and superannuation, and handling year-end tax returns. Beyond compliance, a good business accountant also provides advisory support, helping business owners understand their numbers, plan ahead, and make better financial decisions.
What is business advisory and how is it different from accounting?
Accounting is about recording, reporting, and complying. Advisory is about interpreting those results and helping you use them to make better decisions. A business advisor looks at your performance data and helps you understand what it means for hiring, spending, pricing, structure, and growth. At Acctivate, accounting and advisory are integrated. You get both as part of working with us.
How often should I meet with my accountant?
At minimum, once a year for your annual accounts and tax return. But for growing businesses, once a year isn’t enough. We recommend at least two formal reviews per year, plus quarterly check-in calls. This keeps you informed, gives us a clear picture of how your business is tracking, and means we can flag issues or opportunities before they become urgent.
Do I need a business accountant if I already use accounting software?
Yes. Accounting software like Xero or MYOB helps you record transactions and generate basic reports, but it doesn’t replace the judgement and advice of an experienced accountant. Software tells you what happened. A good accountant helps you understand why it happened and what to do about it. We also make sure your software is set up correctly, your data is accurate, and your reports are actually useful.
How do you charge for business accounting services?
We work on a fixed monthly fee agreed upfront based on the scope of your engagement. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices. You know exactly what you’re paying and what you’re getting.
