The purpose of the article is to define the subject of the management accounting and its objects through the development of accounting theory. In the study the following research methods were used: analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, comparison, generalization, and a system approach. The author studies the evolution of capital as a subject of accounting theory, considers a modern approach to capital as an object of integratedreporting, defines the subject of management accounting. The article proves that management accounting is a research direction of accounting theory as a science of higher level, provides the classification of management accounting objects based on the forms of capital and the way they are related to the state and changes in capital. This classification can be used to make charts of accounts for management accounting, based on the forms and transformations of capital in the system of double-entry or triple-entry bookkeeping.
