This month we look at:
- Maximising cashflow: The predicted slowing of the economy in 2023-24 along with the pay-day super guarantee (SG) proposal are sure to make cashflow more important than ever for business over the coming months and years, noting that it is one of the biggest difficulties faced by business. There are some simple steps you can employ, in consultation with your tax agent to maximise your cashflow moving forward.
