    Statements: Some cost are amount. At

    least some amount are interest. 100% interest are principle. Only cost are compound. Conclusions: I. Some amount are compound. II. Some principle are amount. III. Some cost are principle.
    A Both conclusion I and conclusion III follow. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All conclusions I, II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Only cost are compound → All compound are cost and compound cannot have any positive relation with any element. Hence conclusion I does not follow. At least some amount are interest (I) + 100% interest are principle (A) → Some amount are principle (I) → Conversion → Some principle are amount (I). Hence conclusion II follows. Some cost are amount (I) + At least some amount are interest (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion III does not follow.
