  • Question
  • Statement: "If I am not well you will have to go for the meeting." - A manager tells his subordinate.

    Assumptions:

    1. It is not necessary that only manager level personnel attend the meeting.
    2. If the manager is well, he would himself like to go for the meeting.


  • Options
  • A. Only assumption I is implicit
  • B. Only assumption II is implicit
  • C. Either I or II is implicit
  • D. Neither I nor II is implicit
  • E. Both I and II are implicit

  • Correct Answer
  • Both I and II are implicit 

    Explanation
    Clearly, the subordinate can attend the meeting as told by the Manager only when there is no inhibition. So, I is implicit. The subordinate is told to go only in case when the Manager is not well. This also shows the urgency to attend the meeting. So, II is also implicit.
