Materiality
Materiality is the magnitude of an omission or misstatement of accounting information that, in the light of surrounding circumstances, makes it probable that the judgment of a reasonable person relying on the information would have been changed or influenced by the omission or misstatement. While that the relevant financial statement bases and presumptions on the effect of combined misstatements or omissions that would be considered Immaterial. It does not affect the financial statement.
The user-specific quality is its understandability and usefulness for making decisions. The primary qualitative characteristics are Relevance and Reliability. The components of Relevance are materiality, predictive value, and feedback value (or confirmatory). Under Reliability (or faithful representation), the components are verifiability, neutrality, and representational faithfulness (i.e., free from error). The secondary qualities are Comparability and Consistency. In Comparability, you have to consider cost effectiveness (do benefits exceed costs?). For Consistency, there is a materiality constraint and recognition threshold.

Changes in tax laws, changes in the tax rates etc.) that could have a significant impact on a company`s net earnings and subsequently the net income materiality base.
