    Solution

    No income is service (E) + Some service are goods (I) → Some goods are not income (O*) → Probable conclusion → Some income may be goods (I). Hence conclusion I follows. No income is service (E) + [Every tax is service (A) → Conversion] + Some service are tax (I) → Some tax are not income (O*). Hence conclusion II does not follow. Every tax is service (A) + Some service are goods (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion III does not follow.
