Munro’s seeks to fairly price services and ensure you receive great value for services provided.
In determining price, we take into consideration your specific situation.

Please be advised, however, that we may not be able to provide specialist advice in this initial catch-up. If you require tailored, specialist advice on complex matters, then you can engage us for a paid consultation. We will let you know if a paid consultation is required to address your concerns.
If you need tailored tax advice – have questions or are uncertain about what is best for you – then a consultation is perfect for you.
Should you simply require a tax return to be prepared and lodged, then you are better off asking for a quote.
If you’re a business owner/leader looking to engage us for business advisory and accounting services, then book a Get To Know Each Other meeting instead.
A paid tax consultation is a meeting to address specific tax issues. Its purpose is to address those tax issues during the meeting – for us to give you tax advice.
This is different to the Get To Know Each Other meeting, which is designed for both of us to get to know the other, broadly discussing the problems you face and the solutions we may be able to provide. We don’t generally provide tailored tax advice during the Get To Know Each Other meeting. Rather, the result of the Get To Know Each Other meeting may be a joint agreement for Munro’s to prepare an engagement proposal, which should be the beginning of a long and prosperous advisory relationship for you and your business. Refer to How We Get Started for more information.
Consultations allow you to meet with a specialist advisor from Munro’s to discuss and address your situation, questions, concerns and options. Your Munro’s advisor will use their many years of experience and expertise to provide you with readily available answers and advice. A post-consultation email is also sent to you, which briefly outlines the advice given. Additionally, if you want us to, we can record the consultation and provide you with a copy.
Whilst we of course do our very best to provide the necessary advice during the initial consultation, we are not always able to address everything in one consultation. Where your situation/plans include complex matters which cannot be fully addressed during the initial consultation, we can provide further advice and assistance as required as part of a secondary consultation and/or project. This additional work will be separately priced based on your unique circumstances following the first consultation, and agreed with you before proceeding further. There is no obligation to proceed should you not wish to receive the additional advice and assistance.
This depends on your circumstances and can only be answered with a maybe. Until such time that we explore what it is you are doing and plan to do, we cannot say whether or not one consultation will be sufficient to address everything. We make our expertise available to you by way of a consultation, capped at the agreed price, so as to best address what you need and allow us to let you know what further advice and assistance (if anything) is needed. Our clients continue to be very pleased with our professional services and we are confident we can help you too.
If you remain unsure if a consultation is right for you, then please submit an enquiry. Include your name, phone number, background information/circumstances and questions. We will respond within one business day, suggesting whether or not a consultation is necessary or what your other options are.
No, tax consultations where we provide tailored tax advice are not free.
Only the Get To Know Each Other meeting is free. See above – What’s the difference between a paid tax consultation and Get To Know Each Other meeting? – then consider what is best for you.
We charge a fair price for consultations because you have asked us to provide you with advice and there are costs associated with providing that advice.
Only in exceptional circumstances. If you are a startup or not-for-profit, then you are welcome to submit an enquiry to request a discounted consultation. Please be sure to state your name, phone number, background information/circumstances and questions. We will respond within one business day, letting you know if you qualify for a discounted consultation.
Payment for consultations are accepted using Stripe or direct bank deposit.
Stripe
When booking online, your payments are securely processed by Stripe. We accept payment using Mastercard, VISA and AMEX.
After you select your consultation date and time, you will be asked to answer a few questions and then pay using Stripe.
To complete payment, you need to include the Name as it appears on your debit/credit card, your card number and expiry date.
Direct Bank Deposit
If you would prefer to pay using direct bank deposit, then please call our reception at (08) 9427 5200.
If all you need is a tax return prepared and lodged (i.e. you don’t require any advice), then rather than book a paid tax consultation you can request a quote from us.
Since everyone’s circumstances are unique to them, in order to provide a quote we firstly need to review your situation and relevant activity/transactions.
To allow us to do this, please email Enquiries@munros.com.au the following information:
Alternative to email, you can upload to our secure client account facility. If you would like to use the client account facility, then please let us know and we will arrange for a team member to setup your account.
Claims of being a ‘Top 2% ranked Australian Accounting Firm‘ (and similar claims) are based on two separate assessments conducted by Munro’s on 9-10 August 2023 and 1 December 2023. The ranking is derived from a comparison of the total of each accounting firm’s overall star rating multiplied by each firm’s quantity of reviews as shown on Google Maps. A total of 4,235 Australian accounting firms listed on Google Maps were identified for the earlier assessment, and a total of 4,301 for the latter assessment, which may not represent a complete list of Australian accounting firms. Munro’s claims are based on Munro’s best estimation and represent a snapshot collected at the time of each assessment. If the assessment was to be conducted today, then it is likely that Munro’s ranking would have changed – Munro’s may or may not be in the Top 2% today. Also, the methodology does not account for other potentially relevant factors such as quality of service, expertise, or client satisfaction beyond Google Maps reviews.

video transcript
In December 2023, we conducted a review of Australian accounting firms on Google Maps, based on star rating and quantity of reviews.
Out of the 4,301 Australian accounting firms we identified on Google, Munro’s ranked number 44, placing us in the Top 2% of Australian Accounting Firms. We’re thrilled to share this fact with you and share those reviews on our website. We’d also like to thank all our clients who left us those wonderful reviews.
Thank you.
I highly recommend Drew Pflaum at Munro’s for any matter relating to property, crypto, business tax, etc. I’ve recently met with Drew and he was very diligent and knowledgeable in explaining the best possible options/solutions I have available for my business. Drew is definitely the go-to person for any complex tax matters.
Drew Pflaum and Munro’s have been Fantastic with my crypto portfolio and their advise on my taxation requirements regarding this. I am also very impressed with their promptness, expertise and dedication in all my accounting matters. I would recommend their services to anyone who wants a professional and up to date accounting firm.
Just met these guys on an initially consultation call. Can’t speak highly enough about them in the short time I’ve used their services. Their advice on the call and their follow up afterwards is the best I’ve seen. Highly recommend and looking forward to the continuing relationship. Thanks a lot Drew and Cherie.
The family began with Don Munro at Wesfarmers. Simon and his professional staff at Munros have continued to give excellent service and advice over many years. Lil Ward and Carol look forward to our association with you in the future. Congratulations on 50 years.
Congratulations Munro’s on 50 years. I think my father must have been one of Donald’s and Barry’s earliest clients. Their names were ever present around the breakfast table when I was hopping on a school bus. I reflected with Christine a few months ago that the most important people in life were my family, my accountants, my GP and and Gough Whitlam. In no particluar order. (Why Gough Whitlam? He gave me a free university education and stopped the Vietnam ballot a year before it was my turn. And I have never voted labor). Thanks to Ian, Melissa, Christine, Noeline and Rama. Ever professional.
Munros have been a wonderful support over the last 50 years. Christine , Simon and previously Barry, have taken tremendous care of all my accounts and have even managed not to laugh at the state of my annual paperwork, that is, when I eventually submit it.
Had run into troubles with my personal tax return and immediately appointed Munro’s to act on this matter. Drew and Adam immediately handled my case and was sorted at God speed. Communication was great with all of them and it was easy to provide them with all the requested information.
Highly recommend them for all your accounting and taxation matter, including complicated cryptocurrency matters.
They know what they are doing. No matter how complex your accounting is, Munro’s is the way to go. They also have international experience. Drew and Mike’s expertise and responsiveness won’t disappoint you.
We first met Mike Beer 25 years ago, when he was assigned to our account by his employer at the time. When Mike moved to Munro’s, we decided to transfer our business to follow him as we were so impressed with both his professionalism and his character.
We have never regretted our decision to keep our business with Munro’s and Mike, who we think of as a good friend first and a total professional second for the excellent service he and his company have provided.
Congratulations Munro’s on your anniversary!
This is such a great team! I was behind in my crypto accounting and I received clear instructions and assistance to bring all of my accounting up to date this year. I recommend Munro’s to everyone, especially people using crypto currency. This team are experts in this field!
Drew has been exceptional. Very knowledgeable, easy to understand, timely with his responses, he came in to bat for us when we needed someone to do that. Highly, HIGHLY recommend.
