Statement: Do not copy our software without our permission - A notice.
Assumptions:
- It is possible to copy the software.
- Such warning will have some effect.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Since the notice warns one against copying software without permission, it is evident that software can be copied. So, I is implicit. Also, the warning is given with the motive that no one dares to copy the software. So, II is also implicit.

Warning may have effect would make this answer right but using "will" makes it wrong according to me.

I concluded A because assumption II implied that the warning WOULD have an effect which cannot reasonably be assumed. The warning did not state any kind of punishment which would make the warning even more unlikely to be effective.

Generally warnings are given when there is a possibility for that situation so that the situation can be avoided. That means the given statement implies assumption I.
