Harmonized Sales Tax in Ontario

On July 1, 2010 the Ontario Retail Sales Tax (RST) was combined with the federal Goods and Service Tax (GST) to create a federally administered Harmonized sales tax (HST). The HST has a combined rate of 13% of which 8% is the provincial portion and 5% is the federal portion. The HST, except for some exceptions, generally uses the same rules and tax base as the GST.

MAESTRO TECHNOLOGIES INC.

At SB Partners, we are always on the lookout for state-of-the-art technology tools that can help our clients. We saw the advantages with Maestro Technologies’ management and accounting software. We were impressed with the system’s design and its ability to generate sophisticated and customized financial reports fully integrated with a project management system. The software is specifically designed for the construction industry including general contractors, heavy and civil contractors, homebuilders, trade and service contractors, concrete and aggregate producers, drilling and mining and project based operations.
If you are in the construction sector, we think it is worth checking out. For more information visit www.maestro.ca or contact Peter Feldman at p.feldman@maestro.ca
