Structuring an Analysis Report

Summary

A clear report leads with the key finding, then the supporting evidence, then methodology and caveats last — the opposite order of how most people naturally write it up.

• 2Practice writing a one-sentence headline finding before building any supporting charts.
• 3Learn to move detailed methodology into an appendix, not the main body.
