Reference no: EM13132707
you will be reading portions of the 2011 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) issued by Broward County, Florida. You will be asked to prepare "executive summaries" of the information reported. An executive summary must be written concisely so that the executive does not have to read a long document. However, the summary still must include all of the major information reported in that section of the CAFR. Your job is to make it possible for the executive to read a few paragraphs rather than multiple pages of the CAFR and yet comprehend all of the key points and critical information. This is tough to do! Think carefully before you write your summaries. Determine what information is essential for the executive to know, and then write a clear and concise summary. EACH summary must be no more than 2 single-spaced pages.
