Bookkeeping services in Kellyville and Sydney
Bookkeeping is the ongoing work of recording, reconciling and reporting on your business transactions, and getting it right is what makes everything downstream, BAS lodgements, tax planning, cash flow decisions, reliable. SMA Business Advisory provides bookkeeping for business owners across Kellyville and Sydney who want their books kept current by someone who understands the accounting and tax context behind the numbers.
Books you can rely on, all year round
Bookkeeping done properly becomes the record every other financial decision in your business relies on, whether that’s lodging your BAS on time, understanding your true cash position, or planning ahead with your accountant.
SMA Business Advisory provides bookkeeping for business owners across Kellyville and Sydney who want their books kept current and accurate, whether you’re managing a growing team, juggling multiple income streams, or simply want time back from your own books. Bookkeeping can be engaged as a standalone service or alongside SMA’s tax and advisory work.
The full cycle of keeping
your records accurate
Bookkeeping with SMA covers the full cycle of keeping your business’s financial records accurate and current, month in, month out.
- Transaction coding and data entry
- Bank and credit card reconciliation
- Accounts payable and receivable
- Monthly or quarterly reporting
- BAS-ready records
- Catch-up and clean-up bookkeeping
Overseen by a CPA, not treated as data entry
Bookkeeping at SMA Business Advisory isn’t treated as standalone data entry. It’s overseen by Manraj, a CPA-qualified, registered tax agent with 15+ years’ experience, so the way your books are kept lines up with how your tax return and any advisory work will use them later.
This makes SMA a good fit if your books are behind or inconsistent, if you want regular reporting without hiring an in-house bookkeeper, or if you’d simply rather your bookkeeping and tax work be handled with the same understanding of your business. If you already have an in-house bookkeeper producing reliable, current reports, SMA’s tax and advisory services can work directly from what you provide.
- Direct oversight from a CPA-qualified, registered tax agent on every file
- Bookkeeping kept in step with your tax position, not managed as a separate task
- Catch-up and clean-up bookkeeping available if your books have fallen behind
- One point of contact for bookkeeping, tax and advisory questions
Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions we hear most often. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, get in touch and we’ll be happy to help.
How often will my books be reconciled?
This depends on the volume of transactions in your business, but most clients are on a monthly cycle, with some moving to weekly where the business needs closer tracking.
Do I need to switch accounting software to work with you?
No. SMA can generally work within your existing software, and can also help you move to Xero if that would serve you better.
Is bookkeeping bundled with tax return preparation?
It can be engaged on its own or alongside SMA’s tax and advisory services, whichever suits your business.
My books haven't been touched in months. Can you fix that?
Yes, catch-up bookkeeping is part of this service. We’ll work through the backlog before moving you onto a regular cycle.
Will you also handle my payroll?
Payroll is a related but separate service. See Payroll Processing for pay runs, superannuation and STP reporting.
What do I need to provide each month?
Typically bank statements or feed access, receipts for larger purchases, and any loan or asset finance documents. This is confirmed during your initial consultation.
Can you help with BAS lodgement as well as bookkeeping?
Yes, once your books are kept current, BAS and IAS lodgement is a natural next step.
