another appropriate category. The average exchange rate of hryvnia to the euro, set by
the National Bank of Ukraine, is used to calculate the value of assets and income. This
classification is important from the point of view of determining the composition of
financial statements, since international standards and regulations allow certain
exemptions for certain categories of companies and establish a clear relationship
between each category of companies with the composition of their financial statements.
In accordance with the provisions of the Directive 2013/34/EU, we have
summarized the components of the annual financial statements of enterprises in the
categories presented in Fig. 1. As can be seen from the figure, the main components of
reporting for all types of enterprises are Balance Sheet, Income Statement and Notes
to the Financial Statements. It is also important to note that the financial reporting
element is the Management Report, which is compulsory by large enterprises and
public interest entities.
