EoFY Sale – 20% Off For Computers And Laptops
If you run a business or are self-employed, you know what March 31 means. It’s the end of the financial year. Time to categorize all your expenses, prepare the paperwork and decide what to do in the next financial year to make your business even more profitable!
It also means that these next few days is your last opportunity to minimize the tax you’ll need to pay. Ironically, you do it by spending money, on business expenses and equipment but if you need to buy something anyway, might as well do it now! This way, you can claim those expenses when earlier, which will make your tax obligations a bit smaller.
If you have been postponing getting some repairs done, upgrading your computer, or replacing it with something better, now is the time. Instead of depreciating assets over several years, the IRD allows an immediate tax deduction for equipment costing less than $1000 (GST exclusive).
That’s why we also offer 20% off all computers in stock from now until March 31, 2022. We have plenty of computers for under $1000, so hurry up!
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
