GST & BAS in Xero: Preparation to Lodgement
Prepare, reconcile and lodge a BAS for three clients at once.
BAS work is the bread and butter of every Australian firm, and it is where juniors earn their keep. This course puts you on BAS jobs for three different clients at the same time, exactly like a real quarter in practice.
You meet your third client here: Coastal Property Group, a property entity that adds a new layer of GST complexity.
You prepare each BAS from the ledger up, reconcile GST accounts, build the workpapers and take each one through review to lodgement standard.
