Restaurant /Cafe /Takeaway and Health & Beauty Industry Tax Review

The ATO have advised that they will commence mailing letters to businesses in the Restaurant / Café / Takeaway and Hair & Beauty Industries.

If this is your business industry you can expect to receive a letter within the next few weeks.

We have attached a copy of the sample letter here for your reference.

The letter explains how the ATO work out which businesses they perceive to be doing the wrong thing, and how they reach this conclusion, in regards to their reporting and taxation obligations. The letter also outlines the possible actions that they may take against those who do not meet these obligations.

The ATO are asking all businesses in these specific industries to advise them if you believe you may have made a mistake with your record keeping. Additionally they may also ask for your help to find any possible mistakes and to notify them if any are found.

We believe now is a great opportunity to review your record keeping processes. An industry specific review will involve a comprehensive assessment of your bookkeeping processes, business performance reporting with a comparison of the ATO Industry Benchmarks.
