Statement: Several labour and industrial courts in this State have no proper premises. Vacancies of judges and stenos are kept pending. - A statement of a retired judge of State X.
Assumptions:
1. Adequate number of staff and judges helps in the smooth functioning of the industrial and labour courts.
2. The State is not bothered about the condition of the labour and industrial courts.
3. Physical facilities of an office help in increasing efficiency of its employees.
Implicit Assumptions:
1. Adequate number of staff and judges helps in the smooth functioning of the industrial and labour courts: This assumption is implicit in the statement. The statement mentions that there are vacancies of judges and stenos, which implies that the courts are not functioning at their full capacity. If there are inadequate staff and judges, it would impact the smooth functioning of the courts.
2. The State is not bothered about the condition of the labour and industrial courts: This assumption is not implicit in the statement. The statement only mentions that several courts have no proper premises and vacancies of judges and stenos are pending. It does not provide any information about the state's concern or lack of concern regarding the condition of the courts.
3. Physical facilities of an office help in increasing efficiency of its employees: This assumption is implicit in the statement. The statement mentions that several courts have no proper premises, which implies that the lack of physical facilities could hinder the efficiency of the employees. Having proper physical facilities, such as adequate office space and amenities, can contribute to a better working environment and increase the efficiency of the employees.

Clearly, the statement shows that the present taxes are not sufficient to meet the deficit but they may still be high. So, I is not implicit. Since the statement talks of covering the deficit, so II is implicit. Also, the taxes are increased to meet the deficit. So, III is also implicit.

The company has decided to increase the price of its products by 10%.Assumptions:
I. The company is facing financial difficulties.
II. The customers are willing to pay the increased price.
III. The competitors have also increased the price of their products.
The correct implicit assumption in this statement is II. The customers are willing to pay the increased price.
Explanation: The company's decision to increase the price of its products by 10% suggests that they believe the customers are willing to pay the higher price. If the customers were not willing to pay the increased price, the company would not make such a decision. Therefore, assumption II is implicit in the statement. Assumptions I and III are not necessarily implied by the statement. The company's decision to increase the price does not necessarily indicate financial difficulties (assumption I) or that the competitors have also increased their prices (assumption III).

Statement:
In order to reduce the gap between income and expenditure, the company has decided to increase the price of its product from next month.
Assumptions:
1. The rate will remain more or less the same after the increase.
2. The expenditure will more or less remain the same in the near future.
3. The rival companies will also increase the price of the similar product.
Explanation:
The statement mentions that the company has decided to increase the price of its product from next month in order to reduce the gap between income and expenditure. We need to identify the assumptions that are implicit in the statement.
Assumption 1: The rate will remain more or less the same after the increase.
This assumption is not implicit in the statement. The statement does not provide any information about the rate remaining the same or changing after the increase in price. Therefore, assumption 1 is not implicit.
Assumption 2: The expenditure will more or less remain the same in the near future.
This assumption is implicit in the statement. The company's decision to increase the price of its product indicates that it expects the increased price to generate enough income to reduce the gap between income and expenditure. If the expenditure is expected to increase significantly in the near future, the decision to increase the price may not be sufficient to reduce the gap. Therefore, assumption 2 is implicit.
Assumption 3: The rival companies will also increase the price of the similar product.
This assumption is not implicit in the statement. The statement only mentions the company's decision to increase the price of its own product. It does not provide any information about the actions of rival companies. Therefore, assumption 3 is not implicit.
Conclusion:
Based on the analysis, we can conclude that only assumption 2 is implicit in the statement.

Understanding the Statement
The statement mentions that Bombay people were captivated by Michael Jackson's performance, which was enhanced by high technology. We need to analyze the assumptions to determine their relevance.
Analysis of Assumptions
- Assumption I: "When a show is accompanied with latest technology, it has a magical effect."
- This assumption is implicit. The statement explicitly mentions that the audience was "spellbound" and "mesmerized" by a performance that utilized hi-tech elements. This suggests that the technology played a significant role in creating an impactful experience.
- Assumption II: "Bombay people were never impressed with performances by Indian musicians."
- This assumption is not implicit. The statement does not provide any information about the Bombay audience's past experiences with Indian musicians. It only focuses on their reaction to Michael Jackson's performance, making this assumption unfounded.
- Assumption III: "Michael Jackson is a super singer."
- This assumption is implicit as well. The strong positive reaction of the audience implies that they regard Michael Jackson as a talented and noteworthy performer, supporting the notion that he is viewed as an exceptional singer.
Conclusion
After evaluating the assumptions, we find that:
- Assumption I is implicit as it connects the technology to the audience’s reaction.
- Assumption III is also implicit as it reflects the high regard for Michael Jackson.
Therefore, the correct answer is c) Only I and III are implicit.

Understanding the Statement
The statement made by the officer indicates a directive aimed at addressing punctuality among employees. It is important to analyze the assumptions that can be drawn from this statement.
Analysis of Assumptions
- Assumption I: All the employees come late.
- This assumption might seem plausible since the officer is addressing punctuality. However, it is not explicitly stated that all employees are late. The directive could also be a proactive measure rather than a reaction to a specific problem. Thus, this assumption is not necessarily implicit.
- Assumption II: Employees read such notice on the board.
- For the notice to have any effect, it is essential that employees notice it. This assumption is implicit because the officer expects that the notice will be seen and acknowledged by the employees.
- Assumption III: Employees will follow the instructions.
- The effectiveness of the notice hinges on the assumption that employees will comply with the instruction to come on time. This is a reasonable assumption and is implicit in the statement.
Conclusion
Considering the analysis, only assumptions II and III are explicitly implicit in the statement. Assumption I cannot be definitively concluded from the statement. Therefore, the correct answer is:
c) Only II and III are implicit.
This means that the officer assumes that employees will read the notice and that they will adhere to the instruction given.

Understanding the Statement
The statement from the advertisement suggests that intelligent individuals would benefit from the coaching offered by the institute to enhance their performance.
Analyzing the Assumptions
Let’s break down the assumptions to see which are implicit in the statement:
Assumption I: Brilliant students prefer to join coaching classes.
- This assumption implies that intelligent students are inclined to seek additional help and guidance, which aligns with the notion that the coaching institute is targeting intelligent individuals.
- Therefore, this assumption is implicit in the statement.
Assumption II: Coaching classes help the students to improve their performance.
- The statement directly suggests that the coaching offered will improve performance for intelligent students, indicating that the classes are effective.
- Hence, this assumption is also implicit in the statement.
Assumption III: No other institute provides such coaching.
- This assumption suggests exclusivity, implying that the coaching provided is unmatched by any other institute.
- The original statement does not support this exclusivity, as it simply promotes the benefits of their coaching without dismissing other institutes. Thus, this assumption is not implicit.
Conclusion
Based on the analysis:
- Assumptions I and II are implicit.
- Assumption III is not implicit.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A': "Only I and II are implicit."

- Hence, this assumption is also implicit in the statement.
Assumption III: No other institute provides such coaching.
- This assumption suggests exclusivity, implying that the coaching provided is unmatched by any other institute.
- The original statement does not support this exclusivity, as it simply promotes the benefits of their coaching without dismissing other institutes. Thus, this assumption is not implicit.

Statement: The residents of the locality wrote a letter to the Corporation requesting to restore normalcy in the supply of drinking water immediately as the supply at present is just not adequate.
Assumption 1: The Corporation may not take any action on the letter.
This assumption is not implicit in the statement. The residents' request for restoring normalcy in the supply of drinking water implies that they believe the Corporation has the authority and responsibility to address their concern. The statement does not suggest any doubt or skepticism regarding the Corporation's response to the letter. Therefore, assumption 1 is not implicit.
Assumption 2: The municipality has enough water to meet the demand.
This assumption is implicit in the statement. The residents' request for restoring normalcy in the supply of drinking water indicates that they believe there is a sufficient supply of water available. If the municipality did not have enough water to meet the demand, the residents' request would not make sense. Therefore, assumption 2 is implicit.
Assumption 3: The water supply to the area was adequate in the past.
This assumption is also implicit in the statement. The residents' request for restoring normalcy in the supply of drinking water implies that there was a time in the past when the water supply to the area was adequate. If the water supply had always been inadequate, the residents' request would be for an improvement rather than a restoration of normalcy. Therefore, assumption 3 is implicit.
In conclusion,
- Assumption 1 is not implicit.
- Assumption 2 is implicit.
- Assumption 3 is implicit.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'D' - Only assumption 3 is implicit.
Assumption 1: The Corporation may not take any action on the letter.
This assumption is not implicit in the statement.

The residents' request for restoring normalcy in the supply of drinking water indicates that they believe there is a sufficient supply of water available. If the municipality did not have enough water to meet the demand, the residents' request would not make sense. Therefore, assumption 2 is implicit.

This assumption is also implicit in the statement. The residents' request for restoring normalcy in the supply of drinking water implies that there was a time in the past when the water supply to the area was adequate.
