Kitchens, wardrobes, bathroom vanities, joinery — cabinet making in Melton's growth corridor sits at the intersection of carpentry and joinery licensing. A registered tax agent who understands both saves time year on year.
Melton's kitchens, wardrobes and joinery are crafted by cabinet makers. The work that turns a builder's frame into a home. Same craftsman's approach to your tax — fixed fee, on time.
Above-threshold items into simplified depreciation pool; smaller hand tools immediate.
If you rent a workshop, full rent is deductible. Home-based workshops claim a portion of running costs (but not rates/mortgage interest unless complex).
Held as trading stock when not yet allocated to a job. Year-end stock adjustment matters more here than in most trades.
AutoCAD, Cabinet Vision, Polyboard subscriptions are deductible at work-use percentage.
Manufacturer-specific training (Hettich, Blum hardware), TAFE Cert IV in Cabinet Making for cross-trained carpenters, OHS courses.
Sheet stock pre-cut for a specific job is work-in-progress (asset), not just stock. Mis-categorising affects GST timing and income recognition.
If your workshop is in a separate building on your property, you can sub-meter or apportion the electricity. Pure home-office rates don't apply to dedicated workshops.
Equipment finance — the interest is deductible but the principal isn't (the asset itself depreciates over its life).
