Clear Vision News – June 2014

Clear Vision • Jun 05, 2014

When I started Clear Vision Accountancy Group I wanted to create a new firm that would offer our clients services that went far beyond the traditional. My passion is to offer advice and services that will actually help our clients understand, and interpret their business in order to make enlightened management decisions. A key part of this will be conducting regular free seminars. The new premises has fantastic meeting rooms and enables me to run these seminars here at Taylor Street free of charge. Accountants have a bad reputation for being boring (unfair I think!) so to keep these topics interesting I will be inviting other professional speakers to host. I am happy for you to invite an associate or friend who you think may benefit from the seminar but remember numbers are limited so please RSVP to Nicole as soon as possible. I am also encouraging suggestions for seminar topics. If there is a topic you would like to know more about please let me know. Cheers Justin

Personal Property Security Register (PPSR)
This article was recently forwarded to me from SV Partners. This is an immensely important subject and relevant to so many clients it has been included in this month’s news. SV Partners were appointed liquidators of a company in Jan 2014. The company previously operated a franchise which ceased trading prior to the appointment and owned equipment which we intended to realise. The franchisor claimed to be a secured creditor over the company’s assets, but they registered their security interest on the PPSR incorrectly. Instead of registering it by their Aust. Company Number, they acknowledged they registered it to an Aust. Registered Scheme Number. Had the franchisor correctly registered their security interest of the PPSR, the franchisor could have taken possession of the equipment and deducted the value of it from their outstanding debt. However due to their incorrect registration of their security interest the franchisor had to pay market value of the equipment incurring a loss of approx. $33,000.00. If you are unsure if you have registered any of your equipment correctly contact me today to remedy this.

In a world that often feels chaotic and uncertain, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life, forgetting to pause and appreciate the simple joys that surround us. But amidst the challenges and hardships, there is always a glimmer of light waiting to shine through the darkness. Today, let's embark on a journey to explore the uplifting and positive aspects of life, reminding ourselves of the beauty that exists in every moment. Gratitude: A Key to Happiness Gratitude is a powerful tool that can transform even the most mundane of days into something extraordinary. Take a moment each day to reflect on the things you're grateful for, whether it's the warmth of the sun on your face, the laughter of loved ones, or the beauty of nature. By shifting your focus to the blessings in your life, you'll find that joy naturally follows. Embracing Imperfection Life is messy, unpredictable, and imperfect – and that's what makes it beautiful. Instead of striving for perfection, embrace the flaws and quirks that make you unique. Celebrate your successes, no matter how small, and learn from your mistakes with grace and humility. Remember, it's okay to stumble along the way – it's all part of the journey. Finding Joy in the Little Things Happiness doesn't always come from grand gestures or monumental achievements. Often, it's the little things that bring the most joy – a kind word from a stranger, a hug from a friend, or a quiet moment spent watching the sunset. Pay attention to the small moments of beauty and wonder that pepper your day, and you'll find that happiness is never far away. Spreading Kindness and Love In a world that can sometimes feel cold and indifferent, kindness is like a ray of sunshine breaking through the clouds. Make it a priority to spread love and positivity wherever you go, whether it's through a simple act of kindness or a heartfelt compliment. By lifting others up, you'll find that you lift yourself up in the process. Cultivating Inner Peace True happiness comes from within, rooted in a sense of peace and contentment that transcends external circumstances. Take time each day to nourish your mind, body, and spirit – whether through meditation, mindfulness, or simply taking a walk in nature. Cultivate a sense of inner peace that will sustain you through life's ups and downs, allowing you to navigate challenges with grace and resilience. Embrace the Journey Life is a journey filled with twists and turns, highs and lows, but it's also a journey filled with beauty, wonder, and endless possibilities. By embracing the bright side of life, finding joy in everyday moments, and spreading love and kindness wherever we go, we can create a world that is a little brighter, a little kinder, and a little more beautiful for us all. So let's embark on this journey together, with open hearts and open minds, ready to embrace all that life has to offer.

Boosting Your Superannuation: Seven Powerful Strategies
By Caroline Gillies 19 Oct, 2023
When it comes to being a Director of a company, there are administrative requirements that must be complied with, including keeping ASIC in the loop. We all hate paying unnecessary fees, and ASIC loves to charge fees. To avoid late fees, ASIC must be told about any changes to company details, including your business or residential address, within 28 days. If your company's information changes, please let us know so we can notify ASIC on your behalf. Example: Jarryd gets a late fee Jarryd recently moved his company to a new storefront. In the rush of changing to his new principal place of business, he forgot to update his address details with ASIC. A month later, Jarryd logged into his online account to change his address to reflect the address of his new principal place of business. Because it was outside the 28 day timeframe, the company was charged a $93 late fee. If he had waited longer and lodged the change of address more than a month late, the company would have been charged a $387 late fee. To avoid fees in the future, Jarryd realises it's important to update his details as soon as they change. In summary, be like Jarryd and realise the importance of advising Clear Vision Accountancy Group of any changes. Example supplied by ASIC
