Regarding the facts in problem 8 :

a. If your tolerable error limit (TEL) is \(\$ 250,000\) (10 percent of the account balance), are you satisfied that accounts receivable are fairly stated? Why or why not?

b. If your tolerable error limit (TEL) is \(\$ 175,000\) (7 percent of the account balance), are you satisfied that accounts receivable are fairly stated? Why or why not?

c. Assuming that the answer in Part b is no (you cannot accept the hypothesis that the account is fairly stated), discuss the various alternatives you have available to satisfy yourself that the account is not materially misstated.
