Statement and Assumption
?

Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer :

Statement : The Government has decided to levy 2 percent on the tax amount payable for funding drought relief programmes.

Assumptions :
I. The Government does not have sufficient money to fund drought relief programmes.
II. The amount collected by way of surcharge may be adequate to fund these drought relief programmes.

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option E
Since a surcharge has been levied to fund drought relief programmes, it follows that the Government does not have sufficient money for the same. So, I is implicit. Besides, the percentage of surcharge must have been decided after studying the expected inflow in relation to amount of funds required. So, II is also implicit.
