Owner-Manager Tax Planning
At FRASER | HOWATT, we take an integrated approach to
owner-manager tax planning, examining both your business and
personal tax positions. Taking both into account, we’ll work
with you to create the best possible tax strategy designed to
make the most of tax saving opportunities while reducing tax
expenditures wherever legally possible. We can advise on matters
such as compensation packages, income splitting, and retirement
and succession planning. You’ll see the difference on your
returns, at the office and at home.
Personal Tax Planning
Reducing your personal taxes takes more than just filling out
returns. It takes a strategy and a plan; FRASER | HOWATT can
help you with both. We have extensive experience with personal
tax planning, particularly for owner-managers. We can assist in
customizing compensation packages, setting up trusts, or
advising on retirement, succession and estate planning, all with
the goal of minimizing your tax burden.
Corporate Tax Planning
The skills of a Chartered Accountant can truly be utilized when
it comes to corporate tax planning. As CAs, we know business -
and we know taxes. Put the two together…
FRASER | HOWATT can help you structure (or restructure) your
business to maximize tax advantages while minimizing its tax
burdens now – and in the future. Specifically, we can prepare
your corporate tax returns and ruling requests, offer advice and
strategy on how to utilize tax deferrals, improve tax accounting
practices, deploy technology, and institute other methods of
positioning your business matters to gain the best possible tax
returns.
GST/HST Planning & Compliance
FRASER | HOWATT offers GST & HST support and service to assist
your business or organization. Employing a Chartered Accountant
for planning and compliance will ensure that you make timely
payments, avoid making overpayments, and will ensure that you
are receiving all rebates, exemptions and benefits available.
The expertise of a CA also means that you will be made aware of
any new regulations, issue or opportunities that may arise in
the future.
Succession and Estate Planning
Without adequate succession and estate planning, in addition to
your assets, you might end up passing on a tax burden to your
heirs. For owner-mangers, business viability may be compromised
or continued family ownership could be jeopardized. FRASER | HOWATT Chartered
Accountants can provide practical advice and strategies for
management succession, tax planning, financial structuring,
equity ownership, wealth preservation and wills.
Scientific Research & Experimental Development
If your business or organization is involved with scientific
research or experimental development, then you know how
important timely and successful filing of eligible claims can
be. At FRASER | HOWATT, we also understand this importance and
have experience in this field. We can save you time and energy
and that means more money for your business.
