Fit outs can be quite the experience! They may not come cheap, and they demand a lot of time and effort, causing significant disruptions. However, they hold immense importance and are an essential aspect of pharmacy business practices. Clients often approach us with one common question during their fit-out planning or execution: "What is the tax treatment?" Considering the substantial amount of money involved in these endeavours, the tax implications are crucial, and we need to address a myriad of issues. With Depreciation, Temporary Full Expensing, and Instant Asset Write Offs rules in constant flux, alongside the complexities of Fit Out incentives, it's no wonder this is a topic of concern. To help you gain some clarity, I've taken the liberty of breaking it all down.
Budgeting for Pharmacy
July has finally arrived which means the new beginnings of another financial year. One of my favourite things to do with a business around this time is to prepare an annual budget for the next financial year. We get to review the past year’s performance to see goals we have achieved, what worked and what didn’t work for the business and discuss challenges and opportunities that are occurring in the business. Particularly with 60 Day Dispensing impacting pharmacies in the 2024 financial year, it is vital pharmacies must have a good understanding of their profitability and cashflow and understand what measure they need to introduce to mitigate the impacts. It’s a great time to reflect and set goals for the business to focus on for the next year and to recharge the energy to regain momentum again.
Building Team Engagement
A business such as a pharmacy cannot survive solely on an owner. It requires a team to help you run the business and how successful the pharmacy operates is dependent on how great your team and their dedication are. There are many factors that creates a great team however the driving force is through team engagement. A business relies on the energy, commitment and focus of their team members to allow your pharmacy to survive and thrive.

Empowering Women in Pharmacy
Hello, everyone! It's been a while since my last blog, and although I wish I could say it's been a quiet few weeks, so much has happened. I want to highlight two standout events that occurred during this period: the government's introduction of the 60-day dispensing measure in the recent Federal Budget, and the opportunity I had to host a panel discussion at the inaugural Women in Pharmacy Western Australia (WIPWA) networking event.
