Meaning of material and immaterial

AAmit11y ago
If in the director’s opinion, subsidiary is immaterial, then it is acceptable to exclude it from the consolidation. What is meant by material and immaterial? Please kindly explain, sir.

Subjectivity is a major element here! Together with the necessity of the agreement of the auditors! I imagine in practice that, for a subsidiary to be considered to be immaterial, it pretty much must be a dormant company - but I don't know!
