Question

Read the passage below and identify which of the following statements (1, 2, and 3) can be logically inferred. Select the correct combination from the options provided. Passage: The global demand for high-grade silicon wafers has spiked due to the surge in cloud computing. Taiwan remains the world's leading exporter of these wafers, followed by South Korea. Currently, manufacturers in the United States face a 10% tariff on imported silicon, which adds significantly to the production cost of locally assembled servers. If domestic silicon fabrication plants were established in the U.S., it would streamline the supply chain for data centers and potentially lower the retail price of cloud subscriptions for the end-user. Statements: 1. South Korea is the world's second-largest exporter of high-grade silicon wafers. 2. The United States currently imports most of its high-grade silicon from Taiwan. 3. Establishing domestic fabrication plants would make cloud subscriptions in the U.S. the cheapest in the world.
