Answer: You are trying to find out if the statement is true or false? It is FALSE.

Explanation: Analysts should be concerned with the material movements in the company's financial statements. Although as stated in the question, small changes could amount to material movement but that applies in situations where there is a huge outflow but at the same time, there is similar inflow, so the net effect is negligible on a particular financial statements line item. This instance is not relevant to financial analysts but only the concern of internal control and or internal audit.

Financial analysts are interested in what the key drivers of the financial statements are. These drivers in most cases are an avenue to explain what has transpired in the financials between the current period and the preceding one by way of writing a commentary and providing a succinct and holistic explanation of the financial statements.

It would be time consuming and too operational if analysts are concerned with every percentage movement in the financial statements.
