The following question based on statement & assumptions topic of verbal reasoning
Banks should always check financial status before lending money to a client.

I. Checking before lending would give a true picture of the client’s financial status.
II. Clients sometimes may not present the correct picture of their ability to repay loan amount to the bank.
(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.
e) if both I and II are implicit.
The correct answers to the above question in:
Answer: (a)
I is implicit in the norm prescribed in the sentence. This is why checking is being advised. Again, what would the banks check? Obviously, what the clients reveal. Banks would assume the revelation to be true.
Hence II is not implicit. However, II is vague. If cross-checking is what the speaker has in mind, II would become implicit.
