Introduction. Serhii Mykytovych Rohachenko was a leading scientist in accounting at the Ukrainian Agricultural Academy (UAA) from 1945 to 1977 (in 1959 he created the department of accounting and until 1961 he headed it and became the builder of the accounting scientific school) [1; 2]. Subsequently, the scientist worked at the Uman Agricultural Institute (in 1978 he created the department of accounting and headed it until 1979) [3; 4]. He made a significant contribution to the development of theory and practice of accounting, methods and organization of teaching accounting disciplines. Unfortunately, there is almost no information about the scientist in open sources. In 2025, he would have turned 125 years old. These arguments determined the relevance of the research topic.
