Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) You must understand your audience before you can determine the correct length of a report. If the audience is receptive and the direct approach is being used, a report can be succinct, just long enough to inform readers of the subject matter.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Many reports require neither a synopsis nor an executive summary. Reports of fewer than 10 pages often omit such a preview or combine it with the letter of transmittal. A report over 20 or 30 pages long may include either a synopsis or an executive summary as a convenience for readers. Which one you provide depends on the traditions of your organization.
