Answer & Explanation:In Assignments 2.1 (Part 1) and 2.2 (Part 2) of the Justification
Report, you built up the major parts of your formal, researched
justification report (Problem Statement, Overview of Alternatives,
Criteria, Methods, Evaluation of Alternatives, Findings and Analysis,
and References). For Part 3 you will begin by inserting your revisions
of Parts 1 and 2 based on your instructors suggestions. Then, you will
include a few new sections. Note: Some sections
presented below are out of order so pay attention to where the section
should go (for instance, the Transmittal should be the second page of
your report based on the provided template). It is essential that you
present the final report in the correct section order. Use the basic outline below to draft your paper. Organize your responses to each question under the following section headings: Preliminary Parts (for Question 1)Introduction (for Question 2) Problem Statement (for Question 2b)Terminology (for Question 2c)Major Sections of the Report (for Question 2d)Scope and Limitations of the Research (for Question 2e) Recommendation (for Question 3)References (for Question 4) Using the provided template from Week 7, write Part 3 to complete a single-spaced report in which you: Create
the preliminary parts of the report that precede the Introduction
(after reading Chapter 11 in the textbook). Each element (1a to 1d)
appears on a separate page (1a should be page 1, 1b should be page 2,
etc.). The preliminary part includes: Title PageTransmittal (stand-alone business letter)Table of ContentsExecutive Summary Create an introduction that tells what your report is about. The introduction includes: Begin with a general introduction paragraph that gives the reader any needed background information on the company or problem.Include the Problem Statement that you already created and revised in Part 1.Include terms that readers will need to know in order to understand the report.Briefly summarize the major sections and findings of the report developed in Parts 1 and 2. Note:
This is in addition to including the revised sections not instead of
including the revised previous sections from Parts 1 and 2.Discuss
what your report will cover and what it will not (including limitations
such as research, time, information, or any other factors the reader
should consider when reading the report). Create the Recommendation section of the Report. Provide
a one to two (1-2) sentence recommendation based on what your
Evaluation of Alternatives and Findings and Analysis sections have
determined is the most feasible alternative (i.e., solution) to the
problem in the Problem Statement. Create the References section, which goes at the end of the Report by pasting in your revised References page. Note:
Remember to organize the report by the section headings. The report
should reflect a style and format appropriate for business; single
spacing and bullet points are acceptable for formal business reports. Your assignment must: Be
typed, single spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with

Dear Dr. Karnes:
I am pleased to present the report you authorized on June 10, 2014,
regarding the feasibility of potential pizza options for the upcoming class
party.
An analysis of both Pops Pizza Planet and Scoobys Pizza Mansion found
that, although both alternatives offered delicious options, Scoobys Pizza
Mansion better met our chosen criteria in cost, choices, and delivery time. It
is therefore the recommendation that we utilize Scoobys Pizza Mansion for our
upcoming class pizza party.
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to research potential party
choices. I appreciate your consideration of my recommendation. Should you have
any questions regarding this report, please do not hesitate to contact me at
(909) 555-5555.
Sincerely,
Sophia Bailey
