To arrive at our assessed value for the client, we will consider three generally accepted approaches, namely, market approach, cost approach and income approach.

Effective Corporate Tax planning is when you maximise tax savings by capitalising on beneficial tax-law provisions, increasing and accelerating tax deductions and tax credits, and generally making maximum use of all applicable breaks available under the Singapore Income Tax Act.

The followings are some of the deductions that companies can claim:

• Companies that buy commercial vehicles not exceeding 3,000kg for business use can claim capital allowance over three years, compared with six years previously.
• Trade losses or un-utilised captial allowances for the year, up to $200,000 can be carried back to the previous three years
• Staff training costs are deductible.  If firms receive government grants, only the actual costs they bear are deductible.

Working with the management, buyer or seller of business entities, and their lead advisers to validate the commercial and financial information of the transaction.

The budgeting process is a source of competitive advantage. Effective budgeting requires careful research and realistic planning as well as collaboration. It can help to set high objectives or move the business into new territory.
