Anyone have any idea on what’s reasonable and what’s ridiculous?
Currently my structure is the following and shows revenue and also accountant fees (keep in mind this excludes bookkeeping and BAS lodgements as they are done internally, this is purely tax planning, advice and tax lodging)
Business A Pty Ltd - 1.5M revenue (accountant fee - $20,000)
Business B Pty Ltd - 150k revenue (accountant fee - $7,000)
X Pty Ltd as trustee for X Trust - 100k income (accountant fee $8,500)
Y Pty Ltd as trustee for Y Trust - 80k income (accountant fee $4,000)
Almost $40,000 in accountant fees for the year.
Is this normal? This is the second year I’ve been in business and this seems ridiculous……
They have told me there hourly rate is $400.00
Thanks and appreciate any feedback
