​Buying & Selling Your Business

The sale or purchase of a business is one of the most important decisions you will make in your lifetime.  Our accountants are here to assist you with this process, whether that be grooming your business for sale, undertaking due diligence on a potential purchase or providing advice on appropriate and effective ownership structures.

Farm Accounting

You reap what you sow!  This is true in all industries but if there is any industry that requires the right advice and planning it’s farming.  We understand the volatility of the industry and the range of issues that impact on a farming business.  Our accountants can assist you to understand the financial ramifications of the multitude of decisions that need to be made.

​Financial Advisory Services

The Financial Advisers Act comes into full force on 1 July 2011.  Under this legislation accountants/tax agents are prohibited from giving financial advice unless providing this service in the ordinary course of business as an accountant/tax agent.  Black & White Accounting Ltd is not in the business of giving financial advice and any comment made by us on the subject of investment is not to be interpreted as advice.  We recommend you seek financial advice required from a suitably qualified Financial Advisor.

The way you structure your business now makes a huge difference to how it can operate without you in it.  All successful business owners need to have a plan in place for their own eventual departure from that business.  We are here to co-ordinate the transition of your business to your successors so you can get on with enjoying your retirement or whatever new endevours you choose to undertake.
