DIRECTIONS:
In each question be low is given a statement followed by three assumptions numbered I, II and III. An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and the assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement. Then decide which of the answers (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) is the correct answer.
The following question based on statement & assumptions topic of verbal reasoning
The ‘X’ car manufacturing company has decided to increase price of the cars in A, B and C segments ranging from 5% to 10% with immediate effect as the steel prices have risen considerably in the recent past.
Assumptions:
I. The prices of cars other than in A, B and C segments are already very high and need not be increased.
II. The rival car manufacturing companies may also increase the prices of cars in these segments.
III. There may be adequate demand in the market of the cars in these segments even after the price hike.
(a) Only I is implicit
(b) Only II is implicit
(c) Only III is implicit
(d) Both I and III are implicit
e) All are implicit
The correct answers to the above question in:
Answer: (c)
I need not be implicit because we don’t know about the company’s policy regarding other segments. Again, if a manufacturer increases the price of products, the manufacturer assumes that there may still be adequate demand in the market of its products.
Hence, III is implicit.
Thus reject the options 1), 2), 4) and 5). Note that II may or may not be an assumption.

Question : 1
Statement:
Non-Brahmin well-versed with rituals, could be appointed as a pujari as well.
— Ruling of Supreme Court.
Assumptions:
I. Brahmins don’t have a monopoly over performing puja in a temple.
II. Mere eligibility for a post is enough to lay claim to the candidatureship for the post.
III. People will comply with the verdict given by SC.
a) All I, II and III
b) Only I and II
c) Only II and III
d) Only I and III
e) None of these
Answer »Answer: (a)
I is implicit; that is why ruling goes like this. Declaring non-Brahmin, having desired qualities, also eligible for pujari implies that II must be an assumption. No court delivers its verdict unless it assumes that people will abide by it.
Question : 2
Statement:
“Addictive ‘gutka’ and ‘paan masala’ with or without tobacco has been banned from Aug 1, 2002 in Maharashtra, where even school and college students were increasingly becoming their consumers.”
— A court notice
Assumptions:
I. Some of the ‘gutka’ manufacturers may not abide by the court’s directions.
II. School children and college students are vulnerable to gutka.
III. Consumers as well as manufacturers of ‘gutka’ will abide by the court’s directions.
a) Only II
b) Either I or III and II
c) Either I or III only
d) Only II and III
e) None of these
Answer »Answer: (d)
I is not implicit. A direction is given assuming that the person, for whom the direction is meant, will follow it.
Hence III is implicit. While stating the intensity of the problem, school children and college students are mentioned.
Hence, the speaker must be assuming II.
Question : 3
Statement:
Hurdles in restoring security in travelling through train will be removed by the railway ministry and travelling by train will once again be perceived as safe.
Assumptions:
I. The railway ministry has created hurdles in travellers’ security.
II. Today travelling by train is not considered safe.
III. It is possible to make train journey safe.
a) Only I and II
b) Only II and III
c) Only I and III
d) All I, II and III
e) None of these
Answer »Answer: (b)
If someone takes an initiative to remove the hurdles, it is not implied that he/she is the one who has created it.
Hence, I is not implicit. II is implicit because it is the problem for which initiatives are being taken. III is also implicit because one does not undertake an effort unless he/she assumes the difficulty can be overcome.
Question : 4
Statement:
“Today I am rejecting your proposal to play a cricket match against your team because of absence of Mr Z but tomorrow I am ready to play against your team at any cost.”

II. Match will be played tomorrow irrespective of availability of Mr. Z.
III. Mr Y will be ready to play a match against Mr X tomorrow.
a) All I, II and III
b) Either I or II and III
c) Only II and III
d) Only I and III
e) None of these
Answer »Answer: (c)
Since Mr X is determined to play against Mr Y’s team the next day, he must be assuming III. II is implicit because of the words “at any cost”.
Question : 5
Statement:
“Let us enter into a deal with company Y to come out of our financial crisis.”

I. Company Y can bail company X out of its financial crisis.
II. Two companies can enter into a deal.
III. Company Y is financially sound.
a) Only II and III
b) Only II
c) Only I and III
d) Only III
e) None of these
Answer »Answer: (e)
All the three are implicit. Since company X talks of entering into a deal, it must be assumed that two companies can enter into a deal. So II is implicit. Again, I is implicit because how can company Y help company X unless it is capable to do so? Besides, this capability must be based on being financially sound. So III is implicit.
Question : 6
Statement:
“Though party A is firm on the ouster of party B, it is unlikely to reap any benefit from it.”
— a political observer
Assumptions:
I. Party A expects to benefit from the ouster of party B.
II. Politics is a game of manoeuvring and manipulations.
III. The political scenario is peaceful.
a) Only I
b) Only II
c) Only III
d) All the three
e) None of these
Answer »Answer: (a)
A statement of the form though X, Y is unlikely is based on the assumption that X leads to Y.
