Tracking billable hours and client invoices?
When you're billing multiple clients at different rates, keeping your income accurately recorded is critical. We make sure every invoice is tracked and reconciled correctly.
Managing staff and contractor costs?
Whether you have employees, contractors, or both, getting payroll and payments right is essential. We handle it all correctly every pay cycle.
BAS and tax obligations piling up?
Quarterly BAS and annual tax returns don't wait. We lodge everything on time so you're never caught out by the ATO.
You pay based on what your business earns - not a flat premium rate. Bookkeeping starts from just $98/month.
We give you a clear picture of your estimated tax liability throughout the year so you know exactly how much to set aside.
Every invoice and business expense recorded and categorised correctly in Xero so your books are always up to date.
Prepared and lodged with the ATO every quarter, on time - no chasing deadlines.
Run your firm from the office or a client site. We work remotely with professional services businesses across Australia through Xero.
We don't make you wait three days for a reply. If you have a question, we get back to you quickly.
Too many professional services businesses are paying flat-rate accounting fees that have nothing to do with the size of their operation. At AffordBooksTax, your fee is based on your annual revenue — so a small consultancy turning over $80k pays a very different rate to an agency turning over $400k.
We provide industry-specific bookkeeping across Melbourne and Australia. Whether you’re a Cafe Owner, consultant, or growing retailer, we keep your books reconciled, GST-coded and BAS-ready, so you stay compliant, cash-flow clear, and in control.
We work with a wide range of professional services businesses including marketing agencies, consulting firms, IT services providers, legal practices, and any other service-based business under $500k in annual revenue.
Yes. We set up Xero to track income by client so you always have a clear picture of who owes you what and how much revenue each client is generating.
We process payroll for employed staff every pay cycle, handle STP lodgement, calculate superannuation, and email payslips. For contractors, we ensure payments are recorded correctly and assess whether TPAR lodgement is required.
Yes. Clean, up-to-date books mean you always know where your cashflow stands. We keep your financials current so you can make informed decisions about your business.
BAS lodgement is a separate service but most clients bundle it with bookkeeping. You can mix and match based on what you need - see the pricing table above.
No problem - we offer catch-up bookkeeping to bring everything up to date before moving into the regular monthly routine.
