    Is materiality based on operating profit or PBT? I have been using the study hub and some of the answers base materiality on operating profit. Should it be used. I am confused

    Use whatever is sensible in the context of the specific scenario, e.g.:

    1. Partner specifies a particular profit – use that profit

    2. Partner says “profit” and exhibit gives only one measure of profit – use that measure

    3. Partner says “profit” and exhibit gives more than one measure of profit – include in your justification of materiality your choice of profit.
