    Directions: Read the following information carefully to answer the given questions: XYZ Ltd. presently has three Accounts Assistants - A, B and C - and five Accounts Officers - D, E, F, G and H. Its management is planning to open a new office in another city using three Accounts Officers and two Accounts Assistants from its present staff. The following guidelines have been established to set up the new office:
    (i)  A and C are constantly finding faults with each other and should not be sent as members of the same team.
    (ii) C and E function well alone but not as a team. They should not be sent as members of the same team.
    (iii) D and G do not enjoy good relations. They should not be sent as members of the same team.
    (iv) Since D and F have been competing for a promotion, they should not be sent as members of the same team.
    If C is sent to the new office, then which member of the staff cannot go with C?

    A)  0                            

    B)         F

    C)  G                           

    D)         H

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     If C is selected, then A cannot be selected. So, B must be selected. Now, if C is selected, E cannot be selected. So, three Accounts Officers have to be selected from amongst D, F, G and H. But, if D is selected, neither F nor G can be selected. So, D cannot be selected and F, G, H must be selected.
