    They like paragraphs. Usually a couple of sentences yet to explain properly what you are describing, recommending etc. Whether or not you start your paras with a bullet point is not really relevant. What they don’t like is a bullet point followed by just a couple of words because that will not explain properly what you are trying to say.

    So don’t have:
    > Inspect cars
    > Recalculate depreciation

    Have:
    >Inspect a selection of cars picked from the non-current assets register. This will provide evidence for the existence assertion.
    >Recalculate the depreciation calculations for a selection of cars picked from the non-current assets register. This will provide evidence for the valuation assertion.
