Conclusions : I. If gifts are retained , their utility increases. II. Gifts are not meant for repeated change of hands.


  • Options
  • A. If only conclusion I follows
  • B. If only conclusion II follows
  • C. If neither I nor II follows
  • D. If both I and II follow

  • Correct Answer
  • If only conclusion II follows 

    Explanation

    I is not hinted at. It is an invention of the concluder's mind. II follows  because if "the whole purpose of something is defeated", it loses its meaning.
