PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL FEE PROPOSAL · 2026
PREPARED FOR GOOD MATES
REMOVALS PTY LTD
FOLLOWING OUR DISCUSSION

You have built a growing business. Now the focus is protecting it.

From our discussion, the priority is not simply preparing tax returns. It is making sure the business is structured, compliant and appropriately supported as it continues to grow.

01

Structure & asset protection

Greater confidence that valuable assets are appropriately separated from operational risks and that the current structure remains suitable as the business grows.

02

Contractors, super & compliance

Contractor arrangements create potential superannuation, WorkCover and classification considerations that warrant proper review rather than assumption.

03

Insurance protection

A clearer understanding of existing business insurance arrangements and whether there are material gaps requiring specialist review.

04

Cash flow & payment risk

Customer deposits, payment terms and bad-debt exposure need to be balanced against the competitive realities of the removals market.

05

Margin & cost pressure

Fuel, insurance and other operating costs continue to move, making visibility over margins and financial performance increasingly important.

06

Ongoing peace of mind

Clear advice, fewer unknown gaps and a professional relationship that helps identify material issues before they become larger problems.

WHY THIS MAY FIT

Connecting the engagement back to your priorities.

01

Reduce unknowns

Structure, asset ownership, contractors and tax obligations all warrant appropriate consideration as the business develops.

02

Get ahead of tax

Earlier review creates more opportunity to manage tax positions, PAYG instalments, retained profits, dividends and asset decisions appropriately.

03

Improve visibility

Better financial oversight can help identify margin, cost and working-capital pressures before they develop into larger issues.

04

Advice when it matters

The aim is to provide an appropriate level of access during the year rather than restricting the relationship to annual accounts and tax returns.

OPTIONAL PROTECTION

Accountancy Insurance.

Once the accounting relationship is established, you may also wish to consider optional cover towards professional costs arising from eligible ATO and other regulatory reviews, audits and enquiries.

Fees may be reviewed annually having regard to CPI, changes in scope, complexity, transaction volume, service requirements and other relevant circumstances.

Any material change to the agreed engagement will be discussed with you.

A 5% disbursement charge applies to our professional fees, together with subscriptions or third-party expenses paid on your behalf, including Xero subscriptions where applicable.

Assistance with matters outside the agreed scope will be separately quoted or invoiced using our applicable professional rates, depending on the nature of the matter.

Where a separate engagement is appropriate, we will discuss the proposed scope and fees before commencing substantive work.

Specialist & separately scoped matters

Material restructuring, legal documentation, historical remediation, valuations, ATO audits or reviews and specialist tax, legal, insurance or other professional advice are not included unless expressly stated.

Where another appropriately qualified adviser is required, we may recommend that separate specialist advice be obtained.

Routine ATO correspondence

Where included, routine ATO correspondence means ordinary correspondence arising directly from compliance services within the agreed scope.

ATO audits, reviews, objections, payment arrangements, historical disputes and material remediation are separate services.
