			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Murray and Dianne Smith established their accounting firm Arthur M Smith &amp; Associates from their home office in February 1983. While the business was young, Murray worked it part-time whilst continuing to work his regular job. After some time, Murray and Dianne built the business to a stage that it could support itself. Since then the family-run business has expanded to employ several staff including Murray and Dianne’s son Wade. Due to this rapid growth the company has moved into new premises in Musgrave Street.</p>
<p>Arthur M Smith &amp; Associates continues to provide professional accounting and taxation services to our valued clients throughout Central Queensland and Australia and we are committed to this high standard of cost-effective service.</p>
