A report contains necessary facts but no comparison of alternatives or recommendation. Which aspect is weak?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Decision support.
Facts provide the evidence base, but a decision-oriented report should also help the reader compare choices, understand likely consequences, and consider a recommendation when appropriate. Since the facts are present, factual accuracy is not the stated weakness. Missing comparison and guidance weaken the report’s decision-support function, regardless of its introduction or grammar.
