Discussion :: Statement and Assumption
-
Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by three conclusions. Give answer :
Statement : Let us increase the taxes to cover the deficit.
Assumptions :
I. The present taxes are very low.
II. Deficit in a budget is not desirable.
III. If the taxes are not increased, the deficit cannot be met.
A.
Only I and II are implicit |
B.
Only II and III are implicit |
C.
Only I and III are implicit |
D.
All are implicit |
E.
None of these |
Answer : Option B
Explanation :
Clearly, the statement shows that the present taxes are not sufficient to meet the deficit but they may still be high. So, I is not implicit. Since the statement talks of covering the deficit, so II is implicit. Also, the taxes are increased to meet the deficit. So, III is also implicit.
