We have worked with Liston Newton's Business Accountants and Advisory Team for over a decade. During that time, our business has grown substantially both organically and through purchases. This wouldn’t have been possible without Liston Newton Advisory to assist with our business planning, providing proactive advice and ensuring our accounts were always compliant in a complex and volatile industry.
Liston Newton's Business Accountants analysed our financial and business situation and helped us implement strategies to improve our position. Their strategies turned our business from making a loss, to recording a 6-month net profit of 36 per cent. And we are now on track to show a 240 per cent increase in turnover over the next financial year.
Liston Newton helped us move our accounting over to Xero. A Business Accountant managed the set up and training so we felt comfortable with the software. We now have all our processes streamlined which gives us improved visibility of our business performance. This has allowed us to open 2 more stores without a significant increase in administration effort.
We have a unique approach to business accounting. We consider your short and long-term business goals so we can provide the best possible foundation for you to grow your business and move towards financial freedom.

Another factor that causes the need for an audit is if a company or charity receives a government grant. This is proof for the government that the figures for the financial reports are true and fair.
First, you need to consider why you're hiring a business accountant over any other type of accountant.
Internally, business accountants are usually a major expense and are usually only employed in large-scale organisations. There can be some smaller businesses that may need an internal business accountant, however, this is fairly uncommon. We would recommend that you first assess whether the tasks could be better delegated, both internally and externally, before hiring a business accountant internally.
There are various equipment finance options, and choosing the right one will depend on your business circumstances:
Your business accountant can help you determine which type of loan is the best for your business.
Most business accountant suggest that it is better to fund an asset purchase with cash if your cashflow allows. Paying cash will save you money on interest payments.
If you don't have the cashflow to support paying for the asset in full, then financing will be a better option.
