In the question below, a statement is given, followed by two assumptions numbered I and
II. An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You must decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement. Statement: The national aviation ministry has decided to mandate a "Carbon-Neutral Surcharge" on all private jet departures to fund the development of sustainable aviation fuels and regional green initiatives. Assumptions:
I. Private jet users currently have a disproportionately high environmental impact compared to their contribution to the nation's green energy funding.
II. The demand for private jet travel is relatively inelastic, and owners will continue to fly despite the surcharge due to the convenience and status associated with it.

Why Assumption I is implicit: For a government to specifically target a group (private jet owners) for a "Carbon-Neutral Surcharge," it must be based on the belief that this group is either causing a specific problem or is not paying their fair share toward the solution. If their impact was already considered "proportionate" or "neutral," there would be no logical grounds to impose a targeted mandate. Why Assumption II is implicit: This mirrors your "companies cannot easily withdraw" logic. If the government believed that the surcharge would cause all private jet owners to stop flying or move their planes to another country immediately, the policy would fail to "fund the development" of green initiatives. The policy assumes that the target market is resilient enough to pay the fee and stay in operation.
