Christmas is coming, are you ready for the tax side of the celebrations?

The festive season brings parties, gifts, and plenty of cheer, but it can also bring Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) implications for your business.

Make sure you understand the rules and keep your celebrations tax-smart.

The December edition of the Cairns Economic Monitor has landed, and it arrives with a dose of reality for anyone hoping for a festive rate cut.

October inflation came in at 3.8%, abruptly cooling those Christmas wishes. The RBA has been clear: it wants unmistakable proof that inflation is easing, and the latest numbers aren’t doing it any favours.

While the monthly CPI series has been around since 2022, it is now a key driver of interest rate expectations, giving us faster insight into economic momentum. That makes 10 December a pivotal date, with the next CPI release dropping just days before the 17 December RBA meeting. A softer reading would certainly boost confidence, but at this stage, a rate cut before year-end would feel like nothing short of a Christmas miracle.

It’s great to hear that Cairns is on the rise! The region’s economy has been growing faster than Queensland and the rest of Australia since COVID, thanks to powerhouse industries like defence, health, education, tourism and aviation. Continued investment and skills development will keep Cairns moving forward.

Kayla and Sarah from our Townsville office were out at MAGS Droughtmasters (Monty Atkinson Genetic Sale) last week, and what a fantastic event it was!

Lamont Stud, sold by Mac & Gayle Shann, and Mungulla Stud, sold by Kylie Graham, put forward an impressive lineup and the results showed it. A total of 112 bulls sold with a 100% clearance for the second year in a row. The top-selling bull reached an incredible $58,000!

It was a highly successful day and a great opportunity for Kayla and Sarah to connect with many of our valued agribusiness clients. Always a pleasure to be part of an event that showcases the strength, quality and community spirit of our region’s producers.

Looking forward to the next one!

Happy International Accounting Day!

Here’s to the number crunchers, spreadsheet wizards, and balance sheet heroes who keep everything adding up just right. At PVW Partners, our accountants don’t just count the numbers - they make the numbers count!

Did you know International Accounting Day dates back to November 10, 1494, when the first book on double-entry accounting was published by Italian mathematician Luca Pacioli - often called the Father of Accounting? Over 500 years later, accountants are still turning numbers into insight, helping businesses thrive, and making cents of it all.

So today, we’re celebrating the brains behind the books and the legends behind the ledgers.

Here’s to our incredible accountants at PVW Partners who balance more than just the books - they balance trust, integrity, and impact every day!

Rates Hold, Inflation Rises - and Cairns Property Prices Surge Ahead of Incomes

The RBA held the cash rate at 3.6% in November, following a surprise rise in core inflation to 3.0% for the September quarter. This shift has prompted markets to push expectations for the next rate cut out to late 2026, reinforcing a more cautious monetary outlook.

At the same time, the housing market in Cairns continues to surge at a pace that far outstrips local income growth. Just five years ago, the median house price sat around $376,000, while typical household incomes were approximately $85,000. Today, median prices are edging toward $750,000, nearly doubling in that time, while incomes have risen far more modestly, especially when adjusted for inflation. This growing divide in mortgage affordability could reshape the region’s property landscape unless price and income growth find a more sustainable balance.
