Business Writing: Justification$/$Recommendation Report $($Problem$/$Solution Report$)$

Topic: Problem, Two Solutions, and One Recommendation at a Business

Format: Justification$/$Recommendation Report. Direct Strategy, Use MLA format for sources, not APA. See below for details.

Your Task:

Think about a problem you have encountered in your work place. One semester, I had a student who worked $9-5$ in an office that had been remodeled. The only problem was that the chairs were very uncomfortable because they were meant to look good, but they were not made for sitting on for long periods.

Research a solution and an alternative solution. She investigated the cost of ergonomic chairs, included an alternative solution, calculated the replacement costs, and that was her report. You are going to create a report that does the same.

OR

Think about a problem that you believe could exist with your non$-$profit. It needs to be a practice problem involving an item you can price $($do not including social media analysis here$).$ For example, if you picked World Wildlife Federations, maybe their issue in the office is that they need more phone lines installed. Just pick a logical problem$/$logical solutions$/$alternatives$.$
