This week we looked at using visual aids and graphics in oral presentations. Graphics are also used in many written reports. For this practice assignment, you should write an informal report that incorporates some type of graphics – a chart, graph, etc. For your report, choose one of the four “Problem Solving Think Pieces” on page 236 of the textbook, and write a professional business report that addresses the chosen scenario and incorporates a graph/chart.
Be sure this is a properly formatted business report, with both written material and the graphic(s). Also, be sure to thoroughly proofread and edit.
