What is Consolidated Statements?

Consolidated financial statements combine the financial data of a parent company and its subsidiaries into a single set of reports — balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement — by eliminating intercompany transactions. They present the entire corporate group as if it were one economic entity, providing investors a complete view of the group's financial position.

Example
