Chartered Accountants in Brisbane
Our experts provide strategic business consulting and tax advice for business owners
When you are running a business that starts to gain some momentum and success a little bit of stress can often creep in that often spoils that exhilarating feeling you have most of the time. This most likely comes from the obligations you feel to your employees and your ability to keep things moving in the right direction. At Watson & Watt, we are chartered certified accountants working for small businesses in Brisbane to deliver the kind of bookkeeping, taxation and accountancy support and advice that enables sustained growth.
For business owners, an absence of information and the recognition of this is something that those at the top may experience at the year’s end, particularly when it comes to determining their tax bill and what they can claim as deductions. Our goal is to help those that retain our services to make the best of their circumstances and to leverage their strengths and the opportunities available to them throughout the year so that they have the greatest possibility of maintaining viability as well as profitability.
Chartered Accountants Serving Brisbane
The team here at Watson & Watt provide end-to-end solutions to help our clients stay in control of their taxes throughout the year, and among the services that we provide these include:
- Income Tax Returns
- Activity Statements (BAS)
- Company Secretarial (ASIC)
- Tax Planning and Minimisation
- Financial Statements
- Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT)
A Chartered Accountant Is An Investment
Sometimes business owners feel that investing their cash into accountancy services is an unnecessary expense that they could do without. However, we encourage those that possibly leave their taxes and bookkeeping to the last minute to consider the cost implications and time required every year in facilitating this role in-house.

Having a chartered accountant partnered with your Brisbane business is not only a means to getting the taxes paid and the books prepared, but it is also an investment in a highly knowledgeable team that can work with you to achieve your goals and set you up for long-term success.
Taxation is a minefield for those that have not studied it in depth, and so here at Watson & Watt, we work with our clients to help them identify potential deductions that they could avail of throughout the business year. Having this information enables business owners to make strategic decisions and plan for the year-end.
Nobody wants to face an audit, and one of the ways that you can avoid this as much as possible is by tasking the preparation of your books and tax preparations to a professional chartered certified accountant. You won’t have to worry about making a lot of mistakes that could put the spotlight on your business, and you won’t run the risk of being excessive in terms of write-offs that might also raise an eyebrow.

How does your pricing work?
All our pricing is fixed, agreed in advance and paid via direct debit. And for those that qualify we offer a 12 month payment plan at no extra cost where we spread the costs of the year’s services over 12 equal instalments.
Each year we will send you a new proposal with updated pricing and schedule of services.
Should you require additional services in the period we will provide you with a proposal for those services before we do any work. That way you are always in control.
What happens after we enquire?
After you submit an enquiry we will organise a time to for a free video meeting or phone call at a time suitable for us both. This meeting can go up to 30 minutes long and is a chance for us both to get to know each other, find out what you are looking for and whether we are a good fit for each other.
If we both agree that we can work well together and deliver you the outcomes you are looking for, we will provide you with a proposal for our services which will outline the services, costs involved and our terms and conditions. Once that is accepted there are some compliance requirements we need to satisfy such as ID verification and tax agent linking on the business portal. But we will outline all that in detail once that time comes.
Do you do individual tax returns?
We only do individual tax returns for those individuals who are part of a business group (e.g the shareholders/directors) we do the accounting for, and for those with substantial investments and investment structures such as family trusts or self-managed super funds.
How do you work with clients?
We work with our clients through a combination of email, phone, video and if the case requires it, face to face meetings.
