In the following question, two statements are given each followed by two conclusions I and II. You have to consider the statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given conclusions, if any, follows from the given statements.
Statements:
(I) Major companies are nowadays surviving because of the strong supply chain system.
(II) Supply chain comprises of logistics, retailers and distributers.

Conclusions:
(I) Retailers play most important role because they interact with customers on first hand.
(II) If an organization has strong logistics, then product can easily be available to the customers in such an era of competition.

  1. A
    Only conclusion II follows
  2. B
    Conclusion I and II both follow
  3. C
    Neither I nor II follow
  4. D
    Only conclusion I follows

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let us evaluate the conclusions based strictly on the provided statements:
Conclusion I: Statement II mentions that the supply chain comprises logistics, retailers, and distributors, but it does not specify or imply that retailers play the most important role. Hence, conclusion I does not follow.

Conclusion II: From Statement I, major companies survive due to a strong supply chain system, and Statement II tells us logistics is a core component of this system. Therefore, having strong logistics directly supports making products efficiently available to stay competitive. Thus, conclusion II logically aligns with the premise.

Hence, only conclusion II follows.
