Introduction

In Quebec, businesses can simplify their tax obligations by generating combined GST/HST-QST returns. This approach allows them to report both federal and provincial returns in a single return, reducing the complexity and potential errors associated with separate returns.

Benefits of Combined Returns

  • Reduced complexity: By combining federal and provincial returns, businesses can simplify their tax obligations and reduce the administrative burden. Minimized errors: With a single return, businesses can minimize the risk of errors and ensure that all necessary taxes are reported accurately. Improved cash flow: By invoicing customers for the duration of a project, businesses can improve their cash flow and reduce the need for advance payments. ## Progress-Based Invoicing*

    Progress-based invoicing is a payment method that allows businesses to invoice customers for the duration of a project.

    How Progress-Based Invoicing Works

  • The business provides the customer with a detailed breakdown of the project costs and timeline. The customer agrees to pay the business for the services rendered, based on the progress made. The business invoices the customer for the work completed, and the customer pays accordingly. ### Benefits of Progress-Based Invoicing*

    Exam Content

  • Financial statements (balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement)
  • Accounting principles (GAAP and IFRS)
  • Tax laws and regulations
  • Financial analysis and planning
  • Auditing and assurance
