Are You Ready for the Next Provisional Tax Deadline?
|
|
The second provisional tax deadline for the 2025 tax year is just days away (28 February 2025). It’s the trickiest and most important provisional tax deadline of the tax year, because the income estimates on which it’s based must be highly accurate. Estimates that don’t fall within 80 – 90% of your actual taxable income can expose taxpayers to a stiff 20% under-estimation penalty.
We can help you to meet this important deadline and ensure that it meets SARS’ stringent criteria for compliance and zero penalties.

But each new person brought into a company brings their own expectations for the future of that business – which can lead to complexity. Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of bringing in investors versus building your business alone.

What Your Balance Sheet Says About Your Business
|
|
A balance sheet is a vital financial report for a business, providing a snapshot of the company’s financial health by detailing its assets, liabilities and owners’ equity. These are also used to calculate important financial ratios.
A balance sheet is essential reading for all stakeholders, including businessowners, managers, lenders and investors, as it offers valuable insights into a company’s financial standing and can help improve management decisions.
