Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: B) When audiences read reports, they expect to find key elements of the report to be located in specific places, depending on the report format. These elements include identifying information, preview, detailed discussion, and (optionally) additional documentation. Business reports clearly identify the author, the date, and the topic or title. Some reports also indicate the intended audience.
