Tax Accountant - Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does a tax accountant do?
A licensed tax accountant specialises in preparing tax returns, advising on tax strategy, ensuring compliance with the Australian Taxation Office, and helping clients legally minimise tax liabilities.
They handle individual and business tax filing, deductions, GST, BAS statements, and can support tax planning year‑round.
2. Do I need an accountant to do my tax return?
While individuals can lodge their own returns, an accountant ensures:
- You claim all eligible deductions
- Complex income sources are correctly reported
- You remain compliant with the latest tax laws
Many clients find that the tax savings and peace of mind outweigh the cost of professional accounting assistance.
3. How much does it cost to use a tax accountant?
Costs vary depending on the complexity of your tax situation. Simple individual returns cost less, while business accounting, property tax, and advisory services are priced based on scope.
We offer transparent pricing packages and personalised quotes after understanding your needs.
4. How can an accountant help my business?
A tax accountant can:
- Manage GST & BAS reporting
- Help structure your business efficiently
- Provide insights into cash flow and profit trends
- Advise on tax‑effective strategies
This support helps ensure your business remains compliant and positioned for growth.
5. What’s the difference between a bookkeeper and an accountant?
A bookkeeper focuses on day‑to‑day financial record keeping, while an accountant interprets those records, prepares formal financial reports, and provides tax strategy and planning advice.
Both roles are valuable, but accountants typically handle tax compliance and advisory services.
6. Can IQ Accountants help with online business and freelancing tax?
Yes! IQ Accountants partner with freelancers, consultants, online sellers, and others who earn income from diverse sources. We ensure that all income streams are declared correctly and provide advice on deductions and compliance.
