Small Biz Matters – a half hour program each week where you can work ON your business rather than IN it.
with Alexi Boyd from Boyd Office Management Services
Date: 27 November 2018
I was proud in October to represent Small Biz Matters at the ATO's Protecting Honest Businesses seminar at Haymarket where I interviewed Braden Powell, Director of Small Business Assurance. He explained the importance of understanding the Black Economy and how to avoid it.
Welcome to the show Braden.
As the ATO states:
Most people and businesses are honest and compete fairly.
There are however, some that deliberately hide income to avoid paying the right amount of tax or superannuation. One of the ways they do this is by not recording or reporting all their cash income or electronic transactions.
This is what we call the cash and hidden economy and it’s not fair.
Those who participate in the cash and hidden economy are disadvantaging the community, honest taxpayers and honest businesses by not competing fairly.
Over 85% of Australians believe it's unfair to use cash to avoid paying their fair share of tax.
