Client Services - Business Advisory

In our 30+ years of experience, we have overseen many businesses in a wide variety of industries. We know that running a business is a complex undertaking. We will take some of the weight off your shoulders, providing ongoing guidance. Whether it's owner/manager remuneration, managing foreign exchange, or whether certain assets should be held in a company versus personally, we are your strategic advisors.

Business Start-Ups

Starting a business is an exciting yet overwhelming task. We will provide all the pertinent information and necessary tools needed in this process.
Decisions about whether to and when to incorporate, business structuring, Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) filings,
payroll, bookkeeping, financing, and cashflow forecasts are some of the areas where we can assist you.

Scientific Research & Experimental Development (SR&ED)

As a means of stimulating growth in the Canadian economy, both the federal and provincial governments have implemented programs that provide tax incentives for companies and individuals to claim back a portion of their
eligible SR&ED expenditures.

The benefits of the SR&ED tax credit can be significant. For a Canadian-controlled private corporation (CCPC),
a substantial refundable tax credit can be obtained on eligible expenditures.
These investment tax credits can be in the form of cash refunds, reductions of corporate taxes or both.
You do not have to be profitable to obtain the cash refund.

At T&B, we will assess the eligibility of each company to see if they can qualify for the SR&ED program, on a no-cost,
no-risk basis. Our strategic partners are some of the top SR&ED engineering consultants in this area who specialize
in identifying and scoping out possible SR&ED activities.

We have been very successful in securing claims for many of our clients over the years. Often, both our new and existing clients never realized that the nature of their operations would qualify as SR&ED activities until we
introduced them to this program.

The SR&ED rules are complex and require an understanding of the tax and scientific rules. We will prepare the claim, ensuring that it is fully supportable and we will liaise with the government authorities in obtaining a favourable result.
