Statement: No regular funds have been provided for welfare activities in this year's budget of the factory.

Assumptions:

The factory does not desire to carry out welfare this year.
Budgetary provision is necessary for carrying put welfare activities.

[A].	Only assumption I is implicit
[B].	Only assumption II is implicit
[C].	Either I or II is implicit
[D].	Neither I nor II is implicit
[E].	Both I and II are implicit

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The non-provision of funds for welfare activities in the budget clearly indicates the factory's intention to not carry out such activities in the current year. So, I is implicit. Also, welfare activities cannot be carried out in organisations without the allocation of funds for the same in the budget. So, II is also implicit.
