If something falls within 5% to 10% of profit before tax , then how do you determine if it’s material or not for audit opinion questions as we dont’ have any set materiality?
what would materiality levels for following
5% –
7%-
10%-
Less than 5% is not material.
Greater than 10% is material.
Inbetwee is a matter of professional judgement in the circumstances.
so what shall i say for 7% material or not?
There is no one correct answer, you have to judge and justify in the circumstances depending on what the misstatement is. For example, you might consider that a 7% understatement of profit is not “as bad” as a 7% overstatement. Or you might think anything more 5% is material.
Thank you so much maam for all your help 🙂
You’re welcome!
