Abstract

This article analyzes the nature of consolidated financial statements, the historical development of consolidation and its regulation, the current obligation in Spain to present consolidated financial statements, and the principles for the preparation of a consolidated balance sheet and a consolidated profit and loss account. It concludes with a brief reflection on the importance of having economists who are experts in consolidation techniques.
