SKC Accounting

Company Incorporation

Setting Up a Company

Knowledge. Clarity. Confidence.

A company is a separate legal entity.

That creates opportunities, but it also creates responsibilities.

Before incorporating, it's important to understand why you're choosing a company and what operating one will involve.

Who May Consider a Company?

A sole trader whose business is growing

A new business with more complex plans

A family business

Entrepreneurs establishing a venture

Businesses bringing in additional owners

Clients considering a different operating structure

How SKC Accounting Can Help

Depending on your circumstances, assistance may include:

  • discussing the accounting and taxation considerations

  • company-registration assistance

  • ACN

  • ABN

  • TFN

  • GST and PAYG registrations where required

  • initial accounting setup

  • referral for legal advice where appropriate.

Common Question

Is a company automatically better than being a sole trader?

No.

A company can be appropriate for some businesses and unnecessary for others.

That's why we recommend considering the structure first rather than incorporating simply because someone told you that you “should have a company”.
