SMSF Audit Fees
Transparent Pricing from an Independent SMSF Auditor
Looking for clear, fixed and transparent SMSF audit fees with no hidden costs?
At Manage Your Super, we provide independent SMSF audit services only. Our SMSF audit fees are structured to reflect audit quality, regulatory compliance and specialist expertise — not volume‑driven shortcuts.
We work with accountants, SMSF administrators, financial advisers and trustees across Australia, delivering robust audits that meet ASIC and ATO expectations.
How Much Does an SMSF Audit Cost?
SMSF audit fees in Australia typically range depending on:
- The complexity of the SMSF
- Asset types held by the fund
- Related‑party transactions
- Borrowing arrangements (LRBAs)
- Compliance risk and regulatory exposure
At Manage Your Super, we offer clear, upfront SMSF audit pricing, with no surprise charges after the audit commences.
📌 There are no volume‑driven pricing models, bundled services or independence compromises.
Our SMSF Audit Fee Structure
Our SMSF audit fees are:
✅ Fixed and transparent
✅ Quoted upfront
✅ Based on complexity, not transaction volume
✅ Free from cross‑selling or conflicts of interest
Each audit fee reflects the actual audit work required, not a generic low‑cost template approach.
What Is Included in Our SMSF Audit Fees?
Our standard SMSF audit fee covers:
- Financial audit of annual SMSF financial statements
- Compliance audit under the SIS Act & Regulations
- Independent Auditor’s Report (IAR)
- Audit working papers and documentation
- Professional judgement and audit conclusions
- Management letter outlining issues and recommendations (where applicable)
Where required, additional services such as Audit Contravention Reports (ACRs) are discussed transparently before proceeding.
Factors That Affect SMSF Audit Fees
✅ Fund Complexity
Funds with straightforward investments typically involve lower audit risk than SMSFs holding:
- Property (especially related‑party property)
- Unlisted trusts or companies
- Cryptocurrency
- Overseas investments
Greater complexity requires additional audit procedures and evidence.
✅ Related‑Party Transactions
SMSFs with related‑party dealings require increased scrutiny to ensure:
- Market valuation evidence
- Arm’s length income and expenditure
- Compliance with SIS provisions
This impacts audit effort and audit fees.
✅ NALI & NALE Exposure
Non‑Arm’s Length Income (NALI) and Non‑Arm’s Length Expenditure (NALE) significantly increase audit risk.
We assess:
- Nature of services provided
- Expense structures
- Supporting evidence
- Potential tax consequences
This specialist analysis is reflected in the audit scope.
✅ Borrowing Arrangements (LRBAs)
SMSFs with Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangements require review of:
- Loan terms
- Related‑party compliance
- Asset ownership structures
- Ongoing compliance obligations
LRBAs add complexity to the audit process.
Why Our SMSF Audit Fees Are Not the Cheapest
We do not compete on being the cheapest SMSF auditor — and that is intentional.
Low‑cost SMSF audit providers often rely on:
- High‑volume audit processing
- Minimal audit judgement
- Offshore audit work
- Template‑based compliance
Our SMSF audit fees reflect: ✔ Specialist expertise
✔ Independent judgement
✔ Australian‑based audit responsibility
✔ Regulatory defensibility
For professional firms, audit quality matters more than saving a marginal fee.
