Many lenders and franchisors ask for reports in a specific format tied to the BAS quarter rather than the calendar month, and PAYG instalment notices are easier to plan for when the P&L already separates GST from income. Xero and MYOB both produce standard reports, and we build the management commentary on top rather than replacing either platform. A named accountant prepares the pack and a second reviews it before release, with questions answered inside AEST hours from our second office in Pakistan. ## AU rules that shape the work ### Reporting lines up with BAS quarters Many Australian businesses want a report pack that closes just before each BAS due date, so PAYG instalments and GST movements can be reviewed with current numbers rather than guessed. We align the reporting calendar to your BAS cycle if you ask. ### Revenue shown net of GST Reports are built from figures net of GST, since GST collected is a liability, not income. We check this treatment on every P&L we issue, so gross sales are never mistaken for revenue in a lender or franchisor pack. ### We report, your BAS agent lodges The GST reconciliation behind each report pack is handed to your TPB-registered BAS agent or accountant as a workpaper. LedgerBPO never lodges BAS. ### Built on Xero and MYOB reports We build the monthly pack on top of Xero's or MYOB's native reporting, adding commentary and variance analysis rather than moving your reporting into a separate tool you would need to learn. ## What's included - Monthly P&L, balance sheet and cash flow statement from reconciled books - Budget versus actual with variances flagged above an agreed threshold - Written commentary: what moved, why, and open questions for you - Departmental, class, location or project P&L where you code them - Trailing twelve-month and prior-year comparisons on every statement - Gross margin, operating margin and cash runway shown on one summary page - Accrual and prepaid adjustments so months compare fairly - Balance sheet reconciliation schedule attached to every pack - Fathom, Syft or spreadsheet report templates maintained in your account - Quarter-end and year-end packs formatted for your CPA or accountant - Lender-format statements when your loan agreement specifies one - A 20-minute monthly review call to walk through the pack ## Deliverables and KPIs | Deliverable | KPI we report | | --- | --- | | Monthly report pack in AUD | P&L, balance sheet and cash flow issued after second-accountant review | | GST-net revenue check | Every report confirmed to show revenue net of GST before release | | Variance commentary | Every movement above threshold explained in plain English within the pack | | BAS-quarter alignment | Report calendar aligned to your BAS due dates on request | ## AU software we work in - [Xero](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/xero/) - [MYOB](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/myob/) - [QuickBooks Online](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/quickbooks-online/) - [All 50 platforms](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/) ## Pricing in AUD Pricing depends on volume and scope.

Pricing depends on volume and scope, so we send a custom quote within 1 business day. As a market reference, Australian companies with 1 to 5 staff typically pay A$850 to A$1,800 a month for reporting-inclusive plans, general fixed-fee bookkeeping runs A$300 to A$1,500, and registered BAS agents charge A$75 to A$150 per hour (Australian bookkeeping fee surveys, 2026). ### Do you lodge our BAS? No. Our reports are built from GST-reconciled books, and we prepare the BAS workpaper for your TPB-registered BAS agent or accountant, who reviews and lodges it with the ATO. LedgerBPO never lodges BAS itself. ### Do you cover AEST hours? Yes. Our reporting team overlaps Australian Eastern Standard Time from our second office in Pakistan, so a question about a variance or a report format is answered during your working day. ### Can you format reports for our bank or franchisor? Yes. Many loan agreements and franchise systems specify a report format or a covenant calculation. We build the template once in Xero or MYOB, produce it each period, and flag anything trending toward a limit you have set. ### Do you give an audit opinion on the numbers? No. We prepare management reports and year-end statements for your use and your accountant's use, and we give no audit opinions and no legal, tax or investment advice. If you need audited statements, we prepare the supporting schedules your auditor requests. Next step ## Books closed. Invoices paid. Every month. Tell us what is going on with your books or billing.
