Stella Carr

Stella is the chief consultant and business owner at 1st in Books. She is a qualified associate of the Institute of Public Accountants and a Registered BAS Agent. This means that she is required to maintain up to date knowledge of the Australian taxation system as it applies to small business account keeping, for example: Bookkeeping practices that comply with current accounting principles Preparation of accounting reports for both the business owner and their accountant Payroll setup and processing Single Touch Payroll Superannuation Lodgement of Tax File Declarations Preparation and lodgement of Business Activity Statements Preparation and lodgement of Single Touch Payroll finalisation Preparation and lodgement of Taxable Payment Annual Report (for the building industry and others) All of these activities are requirements the small business owner is faced with and for which there can be huge repercussions if not dealt with in a timely and accurate manner. Stella’s goal is to ensure that this is not a burden to her clients. Accounting systems sometimes need to work alongside specialised programs, such as A2X for Amazon sellers and payment programs such as Stripe and Paypal. Integration between these programs and your accounting program is also an area of specialistion at 1st in Books.
