Tax agent for butchers in Melton.
Independent butcher shops — and chain franchisees — run on cool-room equipment, perishable stock and strict food-safety compliance. A registered tax agent who knows the work keeps the BAS lodged on time.
Melton's butcher shops run on cool-rooms, perishable stock and food-safety compliance. We bring the same daily discipline to your books — fixed fee, on time.
Deductions specific to butchers.
Refrigeration — cool rooms, display cabinets
Major capital items, depreciate over effective life. Annual servicing deductible recurring expense.
Premises rent, utilities, waste removal
Power for refrigeration is a major recurring cost; commercial waste removal often missed.
Stock — meat, processed, packaging
Daily stock movement with short shelf life. Year-end stock adjustment essential.
Tools — knives, mincers, slicers, scales
Replacement and sharpening of knife sets is recurring; commercial slicers and mincers depreciate.
Food-safety training and HACCP
Council food-handler renewals, HACCP for wholesale, halal/kosher accreditation if relevant.
What we see at audit.
Built into stock COGS — daily stock-take captures it. Separate write-off would double-count.
Meat taken home for personal consumption is a private-use adjustment, not a deduction.
