List and briefly explain five characteristics of effective report content

What will be an ideal response?

Answer: Effective report content is accurate (factually correct and error-free). It's also complete, in that it provides readers with all the information they need to understand the situation, problem, or proposal and then make a decision. Effective content is balanced. It represents all sides of the issue fairly and equitably. It also includes all essential information, even if some of it doesn't support the author's line of reasoning. Furthermore, effective content is clear and logical–written in uncluttered sentences and well organized. Finally, effective content is documented properly, giving credit to all sources of information on which the report draws.
