Real problems we've solved

Situations like these are routine for us. Details are representative of client outcomes.

Book Free Consultation
Construction · Alberton
11 weeksto full compliance

Problem

Three years of unfiled returns and mixed personal/business expenses left TM Construction unable to qualify for a R2 million tender.

What we did

We reconstructed 36 months of bank statements, separated personal drawings, and prepared IFRS-compliant AFS. SARS returns were filed, penalties reduced on objection.

Outcome

Tender-ready within 11 weeks. Overdraft facility approved by the bank the following month.

Healthcare · Johannesburg South
74%penalty reduction

Problem

Greenleaf Pharmacy was assessed by SARS for underreported income spanning two years, with a R180k penalty notice.

What we did

We reviewed the assessment, identified three calculation errors, and lodged a formal objection with supporting reconciliations. SARS reduced the liability at ADR.

Outcome

Penalty reduced by 74%. Clean tax status restored. Now on a structured provisional tax plan.

Engineering · Vereeniging
ZeroSARS payroll penalties since onboarding

Problem

Van Wyk Engineering's payroll was processed manually on a spreadsheet. EMP501 reconciliations were consistently late, attracting SARS penalties each year.

What we did

Migrated the payroll to SimplePay, set up automated EMP201 submissions, and reconstructed two years of IRP5 records for a clean reconciliation.

Outcome

Payroll now takes hours instead of two days per month. No further SARS payroll penalties since onboarding.

NGO · Sandton
Section 18Areceipts unlocked for donors

Problem

Thrive NPO was operating without SARS PBO status, paying full income tax on donor contributions and unable to issue Section 18A receipts to donors.

What we did

Prepared the PBO application, supporting AFS, and constitution amendments required for SARS approval. Donor-ready financial statements prepared for annual reporting.

Outcome

PBO status granted within 14 months. Donor pool expanded after Section 18A receipts became available.

Tech Startup · Midrand
3 weeksfrom zero to investor-ready accounts

Problem

A two-year-old software startup had no formal accounting system — revenue tracked in Excel, invoices in email, no VAT records. Investors asked for management accounts.

What we did

Set up QuickBooks Online, imported 24 months of historical data, registered for VAT, and delivered the first management accounts within three weeks.

Outcome

Investor-ready management accounts delivered on schedule. First VAT return filed with zero penalties.
