ACADEMIC WRITING
Having researched your topic in preparation for writing an essay, you will probably have accumulated a
wide range of facts, published research, and other information relevant to the topic. Many people simply
throw these facts together in body paragraphs, without properly applying them to the topic or signalling to
the reader the connections between them. Simply adding a few connecting words - known as "signposts" - make it much more readable: Transitions show the reader the "movement" between ideas/points.

will not be held responsible for paying that liability. Incorporation also enables a busi- ness to obtain professional managers with centralised authority and responsibility; there- fore, the business can be run more efficiently (Schwartz, 2010). Finally, incorporation gives a business certain legal rights . For example, it can enter into contracts, own prop- erty, and borrow money (Brown, 1999). In contrast to the conclusion drawn by Smith (2004), Nguyen (2006) showed that the connection between the factors was not causal in most circumstances.Similarly, Bell (2006) highlights that...
