Summary/Abstract: The financial system of the State Forests is separate and does not belong neither to the finance system of public sector entities nor to legal entities operating on the basis of the Commercial Code or even state-owned entities. Activities performed by the State Forests are characterized by specific production conditions, thereby posing a number of problems or uncertainties in accountancy. The aim of the article is to present how the State Forests operate, which are the sources of their income and what kind of costs they incur in order to finally achieve profits that allow to function effectively in the Polish economy.
