Statement: The Officer In-charge of a Company had a hunch that some money was missing from the safe.
Courses of action:
I. He should get it recounted with the help of the staff and check it with the balance sheet.
II. He should inform the police.

  1. A
    only I follows
  2. B
    only II follows
  3. C
    either I or II follows
  4. D
    both I and II follows

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Since the officer only has a "hunch" (suspicion), the first immediate step must be to verify the fact objectively by recounting the cash and reconciling it with the books (Course I). Informing the police (Course II) right away without any empirical proof or audit verification is premature and unprofessional.
