Effective tax compliance is essential for smart businesses today. Inefficient compliance may lead to Australian Tax Office investigations, potentially severe penalties, paying too much tax, or paying high costs for the compliance process itself.

With so many investment options available in today’s business world, the intricacies of planning your own or your business’s financial future can often be overlooked.

Business performance analysis

Australia’s small to medium businesses are under increasing pressure to not only generate profit, but to just survive. The constantly changing business environment has forced businesses to become more aware of analysing business performance.

But many businesses fail by spending too much time and effort analysing past performance, not planning their future direction.

Businesses that can balance this effectively will thrive and maintain their competitive advantage.

AW Munro & Co’s business performance analysis services can help you and your business reach a balance between past and future performance and ultimately, maximise value.

AW Munro & Co’s thorough and timely performance analysis approach will assist you to achieve the following:
• improve your profit and cash flow
• be more efficient in utilising your assets
• assess and evaluate strategies leading to better business decisions
• focus on expected and future results, not past
• minimise risk of failure
• motivate staff to take responsibility for future performance
• exploit your competitive advantage
• grow and sustain your business.


Costing intelligence

AW Munro & Co uses a proven process known as Activity Based Costing (ABC) to assign costs, both direct and indirect, to a business’s products or services. ABC provides a structured approach to analyse and assign costs that helps to measure the profitability of products, services and customers.

ABC can provide your business with the competitive edge it needs in today’s marketplace. It has many benefits including:

• assessing activities carried out in the business, matching resource consumption with outputs, thereby improving efficiencies and profitability
• improving the accuracy of the budgeting process including pricing products and services
• measuring the impact of key financial decisions
• providing high level costing intelligence – identifying value adding and value destroying activities and products.


Staff incentive plans

All businesses aim to increase the value of their business. But only some realise the value that staff contribute to their business. To harness this resource, businesses must reward not only the business owners, but also the management and staff who have contributed to the business’s success.

AW Munro & Co’s variable pay plan takes a variety of economic considerations into account to ensure you reward staff based on sustainable growth. Our approach designs a reward scheme that is directly related to wealth creation. It relates reward to the underlying value of a business, not sales volume.

By teaching staff the value of the role they play and the decisions they make, this scheme motivates staff to work with the business owners to achieve maximum results.

Some of the benefits that our variable pay plan will provide your business include:

• retaining key staff
• improving and protecting the value of your business
• creating more time for you to pursue other interests, not the day-to-day running of the business.
