Option D is the correct answer.
According to me, the first one is out of knowledge nothing about sales is been said. And the second one is vague.

Option D is the correct answer. As 2 & 1 statement does not follow at all.

I sentence is not assumption; it is CONCLUSION. It doesn't follow. Second statement is vague; as FUTURE & PAST words convey vague meaning. Neither assumption follows.
