video transcript

Since 1973, we at Munro’s – a business improvement and accounting firm headquartered in Perth, but servicing clients all across Australia and sometimes internationally – have pursued Munro’s core mission of helping business people as safely and easily as possible start, grow and eventually exit successful businesses.

We’ve pursued this mission by providing professional services that help legally minimise taxes, safeguard wealth, and solve whatever problems our clients face throughout the business journey and beyond.

As ‘The Professional Problem Solvers’, we take great pride in helping Australians solve problems, but even more pride comes from helping prevent those problems.

We have a willingness to tackle whatever simple or complex issues, come up.

The willingness is tempered by the fact that we understand that we can’t know everything; and from time to time, we need to help connect our clients with external domain specialists.

We do whatever is necessary to help our clients get the best possible outcome.

Providing real value is a must, and so we pursue three big wins:

  1. A great outcome and experience for you – the client and your stakeholders;
  2. A rewarding experience for Munro’s people; and
  3. Always at a price that enables long term benefits for you, Munro’s people, business, and the wider community we seek to positively impact.

Evidence of our success in achieving this can be found in the more than 100 genuine 5-star client reviews shown on our website and submitted on Google. Based on an assessment we performed in December 2023, these ranked Munro’s in the Top 2% of Australian Accounting Firms.

They reveal not only the superb work we did for our clients, but also the care that is always taken and the lasting relationships we build with clients.

It’s these long-term relationships that achieve success for all parties, which make everything we do worthwhile.

  • ★★★★★ — Stephen Vella

    We first met Mike Beer 25 years ago, when he was assigned to our account by his employer at the time. When Mike moved to Munro’s, we decided to transfer our business to follow him as we were so impressed with both his professionalism and his character.

    We have never regretted our decision to keep our business with Munro’s and Mike, who we think of as a good friend first and a total professional second for the excellent service he and his company have provided.

    Congratulations Munro’s on your anniversary!

  • ★★★★★ — Bev Margetts

    Mike has been most helpful and professional with our accounting, superannuation and taxation affairs. We had transferred some years ago from a less than professional person and now very pleased to be with Munro’s. Congratulations on 50 years and best wishes for a long and successful future.

    Munros have been a wonderful support over the last 50 years. Christine , Simon and previously Barry, have taken tremendous care of all my accounts and have even managed not to laugh at the state of my annual paperwork, that is, when I eventually submit it.

    Accountant Drew was very helpful with a detailed insight to capital gains tax and reset period shall we sell our property. Drew contacted five minutes after I enquired to the office and followed up with this assessment

    The tax tribunal has said that a common-sense assessment applies when considering the varying number of factors and even conflicting circumstances when determining if a house is someone’s main residence. In your case, the Bunbury house may have become your main residence for that short eight week stay if you moved a great deal of personal belonging there. However, a common-sense assessment likely suggests it did not become your main residence (at least on the facts that I know). If it didn’t become your main residence, then the maximum period you can claim the property as your main residence for the period since 2018 is 6 years. I.e. 2018-2014. For the period 2024 onwards, the main residence exemption cannot apply. You could, however, move back in and re-establish it as your main residence and then move out and rent again, which would restart the absentee rule. However, you still would not get the main residence exemption for the period 2024 to the time you moved back in because the maximum 6 years has expired for this current period of absence.

    I engaged Munro’s on line owing to the fact that they claimed a specialisation in share trading. I am not a professional trader, however I presented Munro’s with a complex set of circumstances ranging over a 5-6 year period. To say I was delighted with their level of expertise and professionalism would be an understatement. I reside in Victoria and Munro’s is in WA, so this matter was dealt with entirely on line. The accounting professional that looked after my matter was one of the most helpful service providers I have recently encountered, going as far as assisting with my rather rudimentary IT skill. This firm, through the diligent work of the previously mentioned accounting professionals turned what I thought, was a dire Tax situation into a win for me. I cannot rate this firm highly enough, two other firms wanted me to jump through all sorts of hoops, Munro’s did a magnificent job, with little fuss and all on line. I publicly extend my sincere thanks and gratitude to the person that looked after my matter.

    Excellent accounting service with a deep understanding of tax implications for SMSFs.

    I was very impressed with Munro’s accounting service. Before I engaged with Munro’s, I met with accountants across Australia, but I decided to go with Munro’s because of their breadth and understanding of taxation.

    Brian from Munro’s was able to quickly and efficiently complete my 2023 tax returns, and also provided additional advice and expertise on how I could better structure my affairs.

    Originally, I briefed Munro’s to wind back my SMSF due to the administrative burden of managing it. However, Munro’s was able to clearly understand my affairs and prepare the tax documentation in a way that reduced the administrative burden. I was so impressed with their service that I decided to continue with the SMSF after all.

    I highly recommend Munro’s to anyone looking for an accounting service with a deep understanding of taxation and SMSFs.

    We have been clients of Munro’s (and Donald F Munro & Assoc. before that) for more than 50 years and have always found them to be right on point with their advice and work. Nothing is too much trouble to research and the responses always given in easy-to-understand language. We love that the K.I.S.S principle is used (keep-it-simple-stupid!) We can’t thank Simon and Carl enough for the great service that they provide. I have also, in community roles, worked with Barry Virgo and Ian Arblaster over the years on Co-operative business and their knowledge was second to none.

    Thank you and congratulations Munro’s on 50 years + in business.

    I was looking for a business advisor for my small business in the Perth area and stumbled across Munro’s. On the website I was able to conveniently book an initial meeting with them to find out how I could achieve long term growth. One of their business accountants, Drew, promptly replied back and even helped accommodate a meeting on an earlier date. I met with him at their Perth office, and he was beyond helpful. After the meeting he followed up with an email, comprehensively outlining what we had discussed with great tips to help me move forward with growing my business. I really appreciated that Munro’s was willing to take the time to meet with me and help me even though my business is still a little too small to pursue Munro’s services. Drew didn’t try and upsell me and was so helpful and realistic with what I should do at this current stage in my business.

    Munro’s were able to take complicated tax matters like cryptocurrency trading income for a new company and turn it in to a simple solution for me.

    Exceptional Professionalism and Genuine Support

    I can’t thank Drew enough for the incredible support he offered during an incredibly stressful and emotional time. His communication was efficient, clear, and refreshingly straightforward—qualities that are hard to come by when dealing with complex financial and legal matters.

    Although Munros were ultimately unable to take on my case due to an internal conflict, Drew still gave generously of his time and expertise without charge. He treated the complex situation with empathy and integrity, when most professionals would have run a mile. His advice and clarity made a tangible difference to both my confidence and the steps I’m now taking to secure a better future for myself and my children.

    It’s deeply regrettable that I can’t continue with Drew as our accountant long-term, because he would’ve been my first choice without question. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing not only expert accounting but also genuine human support.

    Thank you again, Drew — you have been amazing.

    Munros are a quality accounting firm. My accountant Rama is very thorough with his work and attention to detail, I would recommend him to anyone who is involved in cryptocurrencies. Keep up the good work guys 🙂

  • ★★★★★ — Bren Croll

    As soon as I saw that Munro’s were recommended by the cryptocurrency tracking app CoinTracking for tax advice, I knew they must be absolute pros.

    Munro’s will be my accountants for life now. Nothing was too much trouble and everything has gone so smoothly.

    Here’s what Carl fixed for me for my latest tax return:

    reconciled complex history from various crypto exchanges, some of which are now defunct, which I had spent several days trying to get various AI models to assist with to no avail

    fixed my balance issue in CoinTracking to accurately reflect my position

    Corrected purchase and sales history for employee shares scheme

    Adjust various mistakes from my previous accountants and carry forward the adjustments

    Scrutinised previous tax returns to adjust missed capital losses from a kitchen renovation completed over a decade ago on an investment property that can now be used to offset future capital gains.

    Provide clear advice on every single thing I asked with no hesitation. It’s so obvious that these guys have seen it all and done it all.

    Because I’m with Munro’s now, I feel SO much more confident about some big financial moves where the nightmarish tax implications would otherwise boggle the mind.

    Thank you so much!

    By the way, I wasn’t asked to do this review or sent one of those “please review us on Google” emails. I am posting this because I’m so happy with the service I was provided, it sells itself and I suppose a perfect 5 star rating with 140+ reviews is a testament to the fact that all of Munro’s customers have a similar experience to me. If you have complex tax affairs I don’t think you’ll find anyone better.

    Drew is absolutely amazing and very informative regarding tax purposes.
    If you are a NZ citizen and not already an Australian citizen, then you need to book a time with Drew.

    It was a breath of fresh air speaking with Drew as our previous accountants could not relay a definitive answer for some of the questions we had, and Drew answered it without a second thought.

    Seeking information regarding tax can be a daunting subject and not everyone explains it in Layman’s term, and that’s where Drew fits that topic.

    Definitely gained a couple more clients and has definitely earnt our business going forward.

    Thanks Drew 👍🏾
