Economic materialism. Materialism is the importance a person attaches to acquiring and consuming material goods. The use of the term materialistic to describe a person's personality or a society tends to have a negative or critical connotation.
Materiality also has a qualitative aspect. This refers to the notion that a misstatement or omission of information can be significant to the users of the financial statements due to the nature, rather than the size, thereof.
