Question 2

Question 4
Under Part 1000 of the CIA General Standards of Practice, how is 'materiality' determined in the context of an actuarial assignment?
An omission, understatement or overstatement is material if the actuary expects it to affect the user's decision-making or the user's reasonable expectations
Materiality is whatever threshold the external auditor sets for the financial statements, which the actuary then adopts
Materiality is a fixed percentage of the liability being valued, prescribed so that different actuaries reach the same answer
Materiality is determined after the work is complete, by measuring the difference between the actuary's estimate and the eventual experience
