We only incur $20,000 a year on taxable expenses. Why should we bother accounting for the GST?

In the current climate of limited budgets and resources, the amount you recover could be significant to your organization.

If the amount of the rebate does not justify spending considerable time recording the GST transaction by transaction, you can use a simplified approach to save time. Simply add up all the GST paid during your reporting period from your invoices, and claim the rebate at the appropriate rate on that amount. If you are not registered, you can file the rebate claim once a year.
