  • Question
  • Statement:
    In an attempt to make the conditional access system "consumer-friendly", the government issued a notification asking cable operators to declare pay channel rates by June 15.
    Assumptions:
    I. Cable operators may not be able to declare pay channel rates by June 15 due to lack of adequate time.
    II. Everyone has their own business compulsions and wish to test their own market.


  • Options
  • A. if only assumption I is implicit.
  • B. if only assumption II is implicit.
  • C. if either I or II is implicit.
  • D. if neither I nor II is implicit.

  • Correct Answer
  • if neither I nor II is implicit. 

    Explanation

    The timeframe given by the government implies that the government must be assuming that the time given is adequate for operators to declare pay channel rates. Hence, assumption I is not implicit. Assumption II is not implicit because it is beyond the scope of the statement.
