The assignment is to be presented in the form of a report (including an executive summary, numbered sections and headers and footers).  The number of words must be between 1400 and 1800 in total (including any tables, contents page, headers, footers and references, but excluding the cover sheet, screen shots and the A4 spreadsheet).  The word count must be stated on the front cover.  Student marks for the assignment will be reduced where the assignment is outside the word count maximum or minimum. The amount of penalty will be related to the number of words (deduct 5 marks if up to 200 words over or under, 10 marks if 201-400 words over or under, 20 if 401-600 words over or under, 50 marks if more than 600 words over or under).
