What this tool does and does not include
- The starting numbers are examples only. Replace them with your own.
- Simplified 2026 estimates for a British Columbia business or owner. They leave out many real-life details such as other income, deductions and credits.
- Rates and rules change. Confirm them with the firm or the government before you act.
- Information only. This is not tax, accounting, legal or financial advice.
Good to know
- A business can be profitable and still run out of cash. This tool shows the gap.
- Set up a line of credit while the business is healthy. It is hard to get when cash is already tight.
- Quarterly GST and tax instalments are easy to forget. Put them in.
