Question

In each question a statement is given, followed by two assumptions, numbered I and
II. An assumption is supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement. Statement: A leading smartphone company has announced a 20% discount on its latest model to boost sales during the festive season. Assumptions:
I. Customers are more likely to buy smartphones when discounts are offered.
II. The company’s latest model has not been selling well so far.

Q: Answer-In each question a statement is given, followed by two assumptions, numbered I and II. An assumption...

Offering a discount to boost sales assumes that customers respond positively to price reductions Assumption I is implicit. The statement does NOT say the model is selling poorly discounts can also be offered simply because it is a festive season. Hence, poor sales are not necessarily assumed Assumption II is not implicit. Thus, only Assumption I follows.
