One statement is given, followed by two assumptions, I & II. You have to consider the statement to be true, even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. You are to decide which of the given assumptions can definitely be drawn from the given statement. Statement: “You are appointed as a trainee accountant on temporary basis. Your employment status will automatically be converted to permanent on submission of pass result of M Com final exam." — Extract from an appointment letter. Assumptions: I. M Com final exam is a reasonable proof of an accountant's capability. II. All trainees are appointed on temporary basis. Correct Answer Only assumption I is implicit (Implicit - suggested though not directly expressed) I. M Com final exam is a reasonable proof of an accountant's capability. The phrase “employment status will automatically be converted to permanent on submission of pass result of M Com final exam” indirectly suggests that M Com final exam ensures the candidate’s credibility to such an extent that the candidate’s position can be made permanent on the basis of the pass result. Thus, it can be assumed that M Com final exam is considered as a proof of an accountant’s capability. II. All trainees are appointed on temporary basis. The letter is being addressed to a particular candidate as it is an appointment letter. Therefore, we cannot generalize the situation of the candidate. Hence, only assumption I is implicit.
