Missing Company Franking Credits of $45,450
Komplete Accounting Group (KAG) was engaged by a long-standing local business that had been using a city-based accounting firm for a number of years. He reached the point where he wanted to find an accounting firm that actually had the time to build a relationship with him that care about his business, want to assist him collectively with his business & overall financial affairs going forward. An accountant that took a holistic approach and not just an accounting and tax approach.
When KAG begun looking through books, they noticed that the retained earning account and the company taxes that were already paid, known as the franking account, did not look right. KAG requested the company financials and tax returns for all the prior years to investigate.
The KAG team identified that the previous accounting firm did not carry forward a closing balance properly in one year and transposed incorrect figures in the another.
These two mistakes resulted in a HUGE LOSS for the client by way of missing franking credits to the value of $45,450. Effectively this was paid company tax (assuming 30%) on $151,500 worth of profit.
Due to our exploration, analysis & determination KAG rectified this error which means the client will be able to claim these franking/company tax as offsets when a dividend is paid in the future.
In dollar terms this was worth $151,500 of profit from the Company and $45,450 Tax Credits to the Taxpayer.

Identified $185,000 worth of missing assets and positive Sale for $2.5m
Komplete Accounting Group was successful in engaging a new company. This company had been trading for many years quite profitably and was looking for a new Accountant as the previous Accountant was not providing the level of service that they required along with the foresight for the future as the owners of this company were hoping to sell the company in the upcoming year or two.
KAG obtained the prior year financials and begun undergoing a due diligence analysis and notice that the company had paid approx. $185,000 in company tax, yet this amount was not recorded on the balance sheet as an Asset.
The team at Komplete Accounting Group quickly rectified this within their first year of engagement, worked with the business and the directors to improve their systems and efficiencies to ensure the business was in a good position for market.
The end result was that the company was sold for $2,500,000
Remitted ATO Fines and Interest Totalling $18,316.79
Komplete Accounting Group took on a new sole trader, noticed that the ATO had charged many line items of interest & penalties. We asked the client if the previous Accountant and tried to get these remitted we were told “No, he didn’t try or care”
KAG tallied the total amount to be worth $18,316.79 and wrote a letter to the Commissioner of the ATO requesting for these amounts to be remitted to the Taxpayer.
We were successful in the request resulting a REFUND OF $18,316.79 to our Client.
Identified Missing Tax Losses of $30,000
Komplete Accounting Group was engaged by a long standing local business that was initially using a north shore charted firm that was extremely expensive, so switched to a cheaper provider for the 2015 Financial Year.
When KAG begun looking through books, the staff noticed that the retained earning account and the losses on the company tax return did not match up. So requested the company for all the prior year financials.
It turned out that this cheaper provider overlooked one box within the financials and company tax return which in turn lost the company carried forward losses of almost $30,000.
Due to our exploration, analysis & determination we rectified this error which means the following year turnover up to this amount was tax free.
In dollar terms this was worth $8,550 to the Taxpayer.

Testimonials from our clients
My wife and I cannot recommend Komplete Accounting Group enough.
They are full of knowledge, tips and great advice. We are now in a position to get ourselves out of debt and start living life while we save.
Thank you so much Kurtis and the rest of the Komplete Accounting Group Team.
Kurtis & his Team came across extremely well. Very professional and responsive. Highly Recommended.
“We were so impressed by how efficient, professional and thorough Kurtis was with our tax return. He ensured that we were able to get maximum return for our situation and ensured that everything was taken into account. Kurtis’ holistic approach strategically considered our longer term goals and objectives when providing advice.
Thank you again Kurtis for everything, we would recommend you to everyone we know.”
We have known Kurtis Alaeddin for several years now & been using his strategies & advice since our first property purchase in November 2012.
We find Kurtis to be extremely professional but also very approachable. Kurtis makes himself available to answer any questions asked of him & always makes sure we understand fully any advice he is offering us before we act on it.
Since working with Kurtis we have purchased 3 x properties & are in the process of acquiring our 4th investment. After this purchase we will be controlling over $1.85 million in assets.
Some people would call me thrifty & I do like a bargain, but having a plan in place & sticking to it whilst following Kurtis’s advice has still allowed us to LIVE life. In the past 2 years we have managed to up-grade 2 x cars, we have spent approx. 30k on renovations & have been on 4 x overseas trips.
Needless to say we are extremely happy with the service Kurtis provides & we will continue using Komplete Accounting for all our Financial & Tax needs in the future.
