Alberta levies no provincial sales tax | Source: [Alberta tax facts](https://www.everstonecpa.com/alberta-tax-facts). General information, not advice. Alberta tax, in practice ## What Alberta means for a Beaumont business Lighter than BC or Ontario, with one return owners often miss. ### No provincial sales tax Alberta charges **no PST at all**, so a Beaumont business selling within the province charges only the 5% federal GST: one registration, one return. ### Corporate rates Active business income eligible for the small business deduction is taxed at **11% combined** (9% federal plus 2% Alberta) on a $500,000 limit. Above it the combined rate is 23%, built on Alberta’s 8% general rate. ### But two corporate returns Alberta collects its own corporate income tax. A Beaumont corporation files the AT1 with Alberta Tax and Revenue Administration as well as the T2 with the CRA.

The Beaumont economy we work in ## Built for trades and professional practices Many residents work in Edmonton or the nearby industrial areas. Trades follow the city’s housing growth and that industrial work; professionals serve Edmonton-area clients from a home office. The books follow how the money moves: progress billings and holdbacks for trades, and retainers and fee income for professionals.

Others contract to industrial and energy service sites, where payment terms run long. Where construction is the main activity, payments to subcontractors go on [T5018 slips](https://www.everstonecpa.com/blog/t5018-subcontractor-reporting-construction). WCB-Alberta coverage has to be in place before crews start. Trucks and tools belong in the right [capital cost allowance](https://www.everstonecpa.com/blog/capital-cost-allowance-cca-classes-canada) class. Job costing shows each project’s margin, and GST is charged on progress billings as issued. Our [contractor accounting](https://www.everstonecpa.com/contractor-accountant) page covers the detail, and [energy services accounting](https://www.everstonecpa.com/energy-services-accountant-leduc) covers the industrial side. ## Incorporated professionals: structure and the PSB question Consultants, engineers and health practitioners often incorporate once income passes what the household spends. The corporation files the T2 and AT1, and the owner decides what to draw. A one-person corporation with a single employer-like client can be a [personal services business](https://www.everstonecpa.com/blog/personal-services-business-psb-risk-canada) and lose the small business deduction. We check the contract terms before that becomes a reassessment. See [incorporated professionals](https://www.everstonecpa.com/accountant-for-incorporated-professionals) and [when incorporating starts to pay](https://www.everstonecpa.com/incorporation-advice). Family members who genuinely work in the practice can be paid a reasonable salary; our guide to [paying your spouse a salary](https://www.everstonecpa.com/blog/paying-your-spouse-a-salary-canada) explains what makes it hold up. ## Payroll for a crew or a clinic Alberta has no provincial payroll tax. Payroll for a Beaumont crew or clinic means federal source deductions, CPP and EI, WCB-Alberta reporting and Alberta general holiday pay. We run the pay, remit on the CRA schedule, and file T4 slips by the end of February. ## Paying yourself and planning the year end Incorporated owners face one question each year: salary, dividends or a mix. Salary builds RRSP room; dividends skip payroll. We model both with the [salary vs dividends calculator](https://www.everstonecpa.com/salary-vs-dividends-calculator). Planning happens before year end: bonuses, equipment purchases, and instalments, which run to Alberta as well as the CRA. The T2 is due within six months of year end. For a Canadian-controlled private corporation claiming the small business deduction, the balance is generally due within three months. The [deadline calendar](https://www.everstonecpa.com/cra-tax-deadlines) lists the dates. If the books are behind, [bringing overdue books current](https://www.everstonecpa.com/catch-up-bookkeeping) comes first.

Common questions ## Common questions from Beaumont owners **How much does an accountant cost in Beaumont?** Fees are fixed and quoted in writing before work starts. Personal returns start from $125 and monthly bookkeeping from $325 a month; corporate returns are quoted after a free consultation. [Published fees](https://www.everstonecpa.com/pricing) are the same as anywhere in Alberta. [Ask about your case →](https://www.everstonecpa.com/quick-question) **Does my Beaumont corporation file a separate Alberta return?** Yes. A corporation with a permanent establishment in Alberta files the AT1 with Alberta Tax and Revenue Administration in addition to the federal T2. **Should my Beaumont trade or practice incorporate?** It usually pays once the business earns well beyond what the household spends, so profit can stay in the corporation at the small business rate. We run the numbers on your own figures before you decide. **Do I charge PST on sales from Beaumont?** No. Alberta has no provincial sales tax, so sales within Alberta carry 5% GST only. Sales into other provinces follow the place of supply. **Do you work with businesses outside Beaumont itself?** Yes. Businesses in south Edmonton, Nisku and the rest of Leduc County are served exactly as Beaumont ones are, at the same fixed fees. ## Related services and local guides Nearby cities, the rest of what we do for Beaumont businesses, and the reference pages behind this one.
