In each question below is given a statement followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. A course of action is a step or administrative decision to be taken for improvement, follow-up or further action in regard to the problems, policy, etc. on the basis of the information given in the statement. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then decide which of the given suggested courses of action logically follows for pursuing.
Statement: Air export volumes have increased substantially over the past decade causing backlogs and difficulties for air cargo agents because of increased demand for space and service.
Courses of Action:
I. Airlines and air cargo agents should jointly work out a solution to combat the problem.
II. The reasons for the increase in the volume of air export should be found out.
The statement talks about an increase in air export volumes that is causing problems for air cargo argents.
The first course of action talks about airlines and air cargo working together for a solution. However, the statement mentions nothing about the airlines, and hence, we cannot say whether the problem even concerns the airlines. Hence, it is an invalid course of action.
The second course of action talks about finding the reason for the increased volume, that has eventually caused problems for air cargo. This is a valid course of action, since it will help in coming up with potential solutions.
