We believe you should know what you're paying before the work starts. We meet you first, at no cost, to understand your situation — then agree a fixed fee for the year ahead.

  1. 1

    A free first meeting

    We get to know you and your business — no charge, no obligation.

  2. 2

    A fixed price for the year

    An agreed annual fee that covers your accounts, tax, ACC, resolutions, dividends, phone calls, meetings and a complimentary end-of-year sign-off.

What your fixed fee covers

Tailored to you
  • Annual accounts & tax returns
  • ACC assessments
  • Working for Families credits
  • Resolutions & dividends
  • Provisional tax management
  • Phone calls & meetings
  • A complimentary end-of-year sign-off meeting

Fees that fit. Whether you're a sole trader, a single company or a company with a trust and GST, we set a fixed annual fee based on the nature and complexity of your work. Time-based work is charged at an hourly rate agreed at your first meeting.
