    What Actually Changed on 1 July and What It Means for Your Business

    Julianna, founder of Horizon Accounts, introduces a new series on building a strong financial year and explains key changes from 1 July. Superannuation must now be paid on payday each pay run (Payday Super). The national minimum wage rose by 6% and modern award minimum wages by 4.75%, employers should check their specific award rates rather than assume they match the national increase. She stresses the cash flow impact of payday super, the need to review pricing as wages rise and the importance of correct GST coding, offering a free GST savings checklist and a four-step to-do list to complete before the end of September. 00:00 Series Kickoff 00:25 Payday Super Rules 01:10 Clearing House Closure 01:39 Minimum Wage Updates 02:36 Cash Flow Impacts 03:18 GST Coding Checks 04:08 September Action Plan 05:31 Yearly Rule Shifts 06:15 Wrap Up Next Episode If you are listening to this podcast, chances are you are already on your way to exploring your numbers with a desire to understand and master your business finances, realising the transformative power that numbers hold for your business success.

    What You Can Still Do After June 30 and How to Make FY2027 Your Best Year Yet

    In the final episode of the 2026 financial year, Julianna explains what still matters at year end and how to start 2027 with financial clarity. She outlines key deadlines: business purchases must be paid for and ready to use by 30 June to claim a deduction, super contributions must be received by the fund by 30 June to be deductible, and payday super begins on 1 July. Julianna challenges the idea that 1 July is a reset, encouraging founders to use 12 months of data to spot seasonal patterns, profitability and unnecessary costs, then set a few meaningful targets and review numbers regularly rather than relying on bank balance. 00:00 Year End Wrap Up 01:28 Last Minute June 30 Moves 04:56 July Is Not A Reset 06:51 What Your Numbers Reveal 08:56 Set Up 2027 For Success 11:35 Define Your Best Year 13:00 Programs And Resources 14:54 Final Thanks And Next Steps If you are listening to this podcast, chances are you are already on your way to exploring your numbers with a desire to understand and master your business finances, realising the transformative power that numbers hold for your business success.

    What Your Business Earns vs What You Can Actually Spend

    In episode 122 of Prosperity on the Horizon, Julianna explains why business revenue and a healthy bank balance do not mean the money is yours to spend, because some funds are already committed to things like GST, superannuation and upcoming bills. She highlights GST as a major cause of confusion near the end of the financial year, including common GST coding errors that can either lead to overpaying or create unexpected liabilities and shares an example where correcting Xero coding reduced GST payable from $7,500 to $1,700. Julianna recommends treating cash as separate ‘buckets’ and gives three practical steps: check GST coding, calculate what is already committed and keep the books up to date. She also outlines what the Finish Strong workshop covers and mentions a free GST savings checklist and her Cash Flow Confidence Calculator. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 01:22 Why Bank Balance Lies 03:24 GST Basics Explained 04:37 Common GST Coding Errors 06:20 Bucket Your Cash 08:35 Three Steps to Clarity 10:58 Finish Strong Workshop 13:33 Recap and Next Episode If you are listening to this podcast, chances are you are already on your way to exploring your numbers with a desire to understand and master your business finances, realising the transformative power that numbers hold for your business success.

    Why Knowing Your Revenue Is Not Enough

    Julianna explains why many founders feel cash is always tight even when revenue is strong and why a bank balance alone does not show the full picture. She clarifies the difference between revenue (what you earn), profit (what is left after expenses) and cash position (what is actually available after accounting for GST, tax, super, committed bills and timing of payments). She outlines a simple way to calculate cash position and create a 30-day view of money coming in and going out, noting that accurate, up-to-date books are essential. She also shares a free Cash Flow Confidence Calculator and invites listeners to a live 90-minute online workshop, Finish Strong, on Tuesday 23 June at 12:00 PM Sydney time, limited to 20 people for $49, with a VIP group planning session in July for those who register before Sunday 21 June. 00:00 Welcome Back Setup 01:26 Bank Balance Trap 03:16 Revenue Profit Cash 05:11 Define Cash Position 07:00 Calculate It Simply 09:26 Decisions With Confidence 11:23 Finish Strong Workshop 14:27 Final Recap Next Steps If you are listening to this podcast, chances are you are already on your way to exploring your numbers with a desire to understand and master your business finances, realising the transformative power that numbers hold for your business success.

    Every June This Happens, Yet It Comes as a Surprise. Why?

    Julianna explains what matters at the end of the 2026 financial year and what is time sensitive before 30 June. She outlines two key actions that must happen before year end: business purchases must be bought, paid for and ready for use to claim deductions; and June quarter super must be received by the fund before 30 June to be deductible. She stresses that the most valuable step is having books as complete and accurate as possible, because year end is not only about compliance but also about getting a clear picture of profitability, pricing, expenses and decision making. She then covers July deadlines: STP finalisation, payroll tax annual reconciliation, June quarter super and the April–June BAS. She shares practical fixes (reconcile accounts, categorise transactions, remove personal items, review reports) and promotes a free checklist and the Finish Strong workshop on 16 June. 00:00 Year End Overview 01:43 June 30 Must Dos 02:18 Purchases And Super 03:58 Books Before Deadline 04:38 Year End Beyond Tax 06:51 July Compliance Timeline 09:23 Tidy Your Books Fast 12:10 Fresh Start Foundation 13:34 Finish Strong Resources 14:59 Key Takeaways Wrap Up 15:53 Next Episode And Goodbye If you are listening to this podcast, chances are you are already on your way to exploring your numbers with a desire to understand and master your business finances, realising the transformative power that numbers hold for your business success.

    What Founders Do When They Don't Know What's Coming Next Month

    Julianna explains how running a business without knowing your numbers creates constant uncertainty that costs time, money, energy and opportunities and increases anxiety, especially when books have been avoided for months. She says the issue is not ability but avoidance, which often shows up during BAS preparation in Australia with uncategorised transactions, unreconciled accounts and personal and business spending mixed together. She challenges the idea that only accountants and bookkeepers need to look at the numbers, arguing that accurate, up-to-date books help founders make decisions with clarity using profit and loss, cash flow and balance sheet reports. With 30 June approaching, she shares practical steps and also promotes an EOFY checklist, a live online Finish Strong workshop and a free cash flow confidence calculator. 00:00 The Cost of Uncertainty 01:35 Why Founders Avoid Numbers 03:46 The Numbers Person Myth 05:56 What Clean Books Enable 07:53 Messy Books Fix Plan 10:47 Your Numbers Are Directions 12:16 EOFY Checklist and Workshop 14:04 Final Takeaways and Wrap If you are listening to this podcast, chances are you are already on your way to exploring your numbers with a desire to understand and master your business finances, realising the transformative power that numbers hold for your business success.

  7. Can Your Business Support the Hire You Keep Putting Off?

    Can Your Business Support the Hire You Keep Putting Off?

    Julianna explains that the hire founders keep delaying is usually a visibility problem rather than a money problem, because many people rely on feelings instead of data and do not know what the next 30 to 60 days look like financially. She shares a client story where the numbers showed a quiet four-week period which was normal in the business, the part-time support cost was manageable and the freed-up time increased capacity for work already in the pipeline. She outlines four steps to assess a hire: calculate the true monthly cost, map the next 60 days of confirmed cash in and out, check timing and buffers and consider what the hire enables. She also highlights the cost of waiting (time, energy and growth) and also promotes an EOFY checklist, a cash flow confidence calculator and a June workshop. 00:00 Hiring Hesitation Explained 01:22 Why Founders Delay 03:01 Client Story Breakthrough 05:34 Feelings vs Cash Flow 07:47 Four Step Hiring Test 10:07 The Cost of Waiting 11:31 EOFY Resources and Workshop 12:45 Your Next Action Steps 14:23 Wrap Up and Next Episode If you are listening to this podcast, chances are you are already on your way to exploring your numbers with a desire to understand and master your business finances, realising the transformative power that numbers hold for your business success.

  8. Why the Money Always Seems to Run Out Before the Month Does

    Why the Money Always Seems to Run Out Before the Month Does

    In episode 117 of Prosperity on the Horizon, Julianna explains why founders often feel like money “disappears” even in a good month. She describes three common causes: the delay between earning money and receiving it, uneven or ‘lumpy’ expenses that land close together and small recurring costs that add up over time. Julianna highlights the difference between a profitable month and a cash positive month, stressing that profit is about totals while cash flow is about timing. She recommends mapping the next four weeks as a timeline of when money will land and when every cost will leave the account, and shares a free cash flow confidence calculator in the show notes. 00:00 Welcome Back and Series Setup 00:50 Why Money Seems to Vanish 01:32 That Midmonth Bank Shock 02:32 Three Cash Flow Culprits 04:36 Founder Story Timing Trap 06:55 Profit vs Cash Positive 08:53 One Timeline Exercise 10:59 Visibility Not Money Problem 11:44 Free Calculator and Next Week 12:47 Wrap Up and Goodbye If you are listening to this podcast, chances are you are already on your way to exploring your numbers with a desire to understand and master your business finances, realising the transformative power that numbers hold for your business success.
