Signs of dependence of subsidiary enterprises with the legislation of Ukraine were systematized. The approaches to determining the composition of the consolidated group of enterprises were considered. The main features of the assessment of control and authority of members of the group of enterprises for the needs of consolidation were identified.

The regulatory procedures for the consolidation of financial statements were analused.
