Assumptions:
I. If it is not said explicitly, the subscriber may claim for their payments in cash in cash any irregularities are made by the representatives.
II. Representatives of company X are not trustworthy.

- if only assumption I is implicit.
- if only assumption II is implicit.
- if either I or II is implicit.
- if neither I nor II is implicit.
- if both I and II are implicit.
- if only assumption I is implicit.
Correct Option: A
Only I is implicit. Why does the company need to issue such instruction? It must be assuming I. The motive behind the instruction may be to ensure convenience in keeping the records regarding transaction of the company. Hence, II is not implicit.
