Q14. Direction (Q. 14): A statement is followed by three assumptions. Consider the statement and assumptions and decide which of the assumption(s) is/are implicit in the statement. Statement: The electricity company informed the consumers through a notice that those who did not pay their bills by the due date would be charged penalty for every day of default. Assumptions: I. Money collected as penalty would compensate for the losses incurred due to delay in making payments of the bills. II. People generally heed notices. III. Majority of people would pay their bills by the due date to avoid penalty.

  2. BOnly I is implicit
  3. CNone of the assumptions is implicit
  4. DOnly I and II are implicit
  5. EOnly II and III are implicit

Answer: A. I, II and III are implicit

Explanation

The notice presumes penalties offset default losses (I), that people read notices (II), and that the threat of penalty prompts timely payment (III).
