Hello,
I’m the sole director of the business and pay myself a salary when the business can afford to. As I’m set up as an employee does that mean I need to be paying super on top of the income the business is paying me?

There are three partners in the business, it’s a digital media business. I work in the business full time, one partner is part time and the other works a full time job but helps out every now and then. I am wanting to put a shareholders agreement together but the others are assisting on equal share each. I am finding this difficult as I’m doing 80% of the work and generating the little revenue we have and it has become a bit of a disincentive to work harder as the rewards are not commensurate with the effort and contribution. How do I handle the predicament respectfully so everyone feels it has been handled appropriately and we can maximise the opportunity? Thank you

The RBA has cut official interest rates to a new record low of 1.25 per cent.

Will the Banks and all other Lenders pass on the full rate cut for their borrowers?

I’m working part time and I’m wanting to start a business part time providing lawn care, though I’m unsure if owning and working a business will affect the money I earn working part time?

Hi, I’m looking at buying a business where the distribution base is contractors. I’ve had a looking at the contractors existing agreements and there is no mention of super entitlements which is a concern for me if I take it on and find out later that there should be. The contractors aren’t employees but should the business be paying their super?

Hello, I want to create an online platform to help people experiencing anxiety and stress related issues. I have the professional qualifications and over time would invite other professionals to form part of the community. The question I have, is what do I need or should have to protect myself, other professional and the platform, what could we be liable for?

Hi, I’m looking at buying a restaurant and have looked at a couple within reasonable proximity to home. I’m a qualified chef but having a difficult time trusting the financial and information the business brokers are providing. Is there a proven strategy on how I may be able to get the true picture on how the business is performing, thank you

Along with 2 other partners we are about to set up a food distribution business, each of us will be directors and have equal shareholding. The question we have is two directors who want to have their shares in their family company name and the director want their shares to be just in a business name, not a pty ltd.

Does anyone see this as a problem and does it represent any risks to any of us as directors?

I have been operating a business under a company structure with two directors for 5 years and recently started a photography business as a hobby (it is going well too). Do I need to set up another company or can I be a sole trader so it doesn’t affect the other business?

I have just started working from home and want to know what I can claim through the business. We don’t owe any money on the house, does that matter and can I now claim travel expenses to visit clients?

Hello there. My friend and I would like to setup a design service business and need to know the difference between a partnership and a company? If it’s a partnership can we use a domain with .com.au or is that solely for a company? What is cost difference between setting up a partnership and company.

Hi,
As a father of a mortgage broker who has 8 years’ experience I want to know why the Royal Commission and Government would be denying brokers the opportunity to be paid $3,250 by the lender on a $500,000 loan yet be happy for real estate agents to be paid up to $10,000 for the sale of a $500,000 property. My son has worked hard, built a business and now what?

Hi, we need some advice.

One of our staff is never happy and continuously brings down the mood within the business and with a small team of 10, it’s very frustrating. The business is going well but it could be so much better and we are really worried about losing other staff because of the negativity. What is our best course of action, we don’t want to wait until it is too late?

I would like to get the opinions of other business owners to how long before a new staff member needs to be working for the business before they become part of the employee share options. We introduced it last year for staff who have been with the business almost from the start 4 years ago but not sure whether new employees should have to wait 1, 2 or 3 years. What do people think?
