Bookkeeping for Tradies FAQS

Questions Meet Answers

Man looking through BAS receipts

Yes. Even if it’s just you, tracking income, expenses, and tax obligations is crucial. A bookkeeper keeps your finances organised and ensures you stay compliant.

The 80% rule helps the ATO determine whether you are a business or more like an employee. If 80% or more of your income comes from one client, it might impact how you are taxed.

Sole traders must keep records of bank transactions, invoices, and receipts for at least five years. This helps with tax compliance and financial reporting.

Xero is a top choice for tradies. It is cloud-based, integrates with payroll and invoicing, and helps you manage finances easily while on the go.
