A private accountant's income – SME Edition
////////

Private accountants run a business. We help SMEs, startups, and business owners stay compliant and financially healthy — for a fee. Same as any business: we provide a service, you pay.

Our income pays for staff wages, office rent, MYOB/Xero subscriptions, professional indemnity insurance, IPA/CPA fees, power, internet, and other overheads.

We charge by the hour or fixed fees per job. Rates depend on experience, complexity, and deadlines.

What we actually charge time for:
Setting up your chart of accounts, monthly bookkeeping, BAS/GST prep, payroll & super, annual financials, tax returns, IRC audits and objections, budgeting, cashflow forecasts, meetings, phone calls, emails, fixing up messy records, and even travel time to your office or IRC. If it uses our expertise and time, it’s billable.

To be honest — many of us private accountants have been too generous. We’ve cleaned up books, lodged late returns, answered “quick questions” on tax, met with you for free, all while paying clients wait. Advice isn’t free. If you call and we help you, you’ve just received a free professional service.

We’re happy to help. The Bible says ask and you shall receive. But we’re also overwhelmed. If I don’t pick up your call or reply straight away, it’s not that I don’t value you. I’m just trying to balance free help with work that pays my staff and keeps the lights on.

Need free help? Try these first:
1. IRC Taxpayer Services – Free help with TIN, tax basics, and lodgements. 2. SBDC & IPA – They run SME clinics on bookkeeping and compliance. Govman putim ol for this reason. Yupla can go long ol pastem.

Private accountants will still help, but within limits. At times I’m stressed trying to help everyone and run a business.

Please, yumi must larim understanding prevail. If you need ongoing help, let’s put you on a proper monthly package so I can serve you well.

Beyond the Bank Balance: True Business Health Starts with Clean Records

Many business owners in PNG judge their success by looking at their bank balance. But cash in the bank doesn’t always mean your business is healthy. A company can still face:
- Unpaid liabilities (creditors, tax obligations, payroll)
- Declining profit margins hidden behind rising sales
- Upcoming expenses that drain future cash
- Cash flow gaps that make growth impossible

That’s why financial reports matter. Your Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow Statement reveal the real story of your business.

👉 Proper bookkeeping is not just compliance—it’s clarity.
Accurate records give you the confidence to:
- Make informed decisions
- Plan for growth
- Stay compliant with tax and regulatory requirements
- Build trust with partners, banks, and communities

📊 Why SMEs in PNG Must Act
In Bougainville, Lae, Port Moresby, and across PNG, many SMEs struggle because they rely only on cash visibility. But clean books = strong business foundation. Whether you’re preparing for GST, CIT, or seeking finance, audit-ready records protect your future.

✅ Call to Action
If you’re serious about growth, don’t just check your bank balance—check your numbers.
- Reconcile accounts monthly
- Track expenses properly
- Review your three core reports regularly

Your books are not just numbers—they are the story of your business health and future.
