Active vs. Passive Voice in Financial Reports

✨ Writing Prompt

You are tasked with drafting a concise financial review report for a quarterly earnings call. The report should analyze the company's performance and present key findings. Start with a paragraph written in passive voice, such as 'Sales were affected by market fluctuations.' Then, revise that paragraph to use active voice, focusing on clarity and directness, like 'Market fluctuations affected our sales.' Include at least three additional sentences addressing different aspects of the report, ensuring you alternate between active and passive constructions. Finally, reflect on how each voice affects the tone and clarity of your writing.
