The article considers the advantages of including estimates in the consolidated financial statements. The authors include the risk premium, the inflation rate, and the company's credit position to the estimated indicators. These indicators play an important role in the overall assessment of the company's investment attractiveness in the context of the digitalization of the economy and the use of cryptocurrency. The risk premium provides certain guarantees of profit for investors, regardless of the yield of securities. It is expected that the higher the yield of the security and, accordingly, the level of danger, the greater the risk premium can be received by the investor. The inflation rate allows to adjust the value of the company's assets at the current moment. The assessment of credit position allows to understand how the discount rate and the cost of liabilities will change. The use of these indicators will allow to evaluate the current value of the company's assets, the level of its solvency and present the final indicators in the consolidated financial statements.

The article is devoted to the study of the essence of integrated reporting (IR). It shows that the unresolved environmental problems, the growth of the world’s population, the shortage of natural resources result in changes in the information requirements of stakeholders and, as a consequence, to the contents of companies’ reporting. In order to achieve the business goals interested parties need reports that systematically reflects the creation of company value through the complex interconnection of strategy, organizational management, operating, financial and investment activities, as well as the risk environment. Integrated reporting is capable of providing such information, combining financial and non-financial information about the company’s strategy, its achievements and management style. The main purpose of the IR is to summarize retrospective and prospective data demonstrating the process of value creation. The research reveals the problem of the lack of common understanding what IR is and the very idea of generating IR, along with the identity of the concepts of “integrated reporting” and “integrated report”, which does not comply with the International Standard for Integrated Reporting. The results of the research make it possible to determine the place of each type of report in the reporting composition and prove that the published integrated reports of Russian companies are actually integrated reporting, as they include consolidated financial statements and an integrated report, which meets the requirements of the International Integrated Reporting Standard.
