In the question given below, there are two statements marked as Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Read the statements and choose the correct option.

Assertion (A): Investment in human resources leads to the low rate of return.

Reason (R): Human resource is a never-ending resource.

Options are:

(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

(b) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

(c) (A) is correct but (R) is wrong.

(d) (A) is wrong but (R) is correct.

 

Answer

So, the correct option is (d) - (A) is wrong but (R) is correct.

 

Explanation

  • Assertion (A): Investment in human resources leads to a low rate of return. The assertion is false because investment in human resources leads to a high rate of interest in the future.
  • Reasoning (R): Human resource is a never-ending resource because human resource is not like any other resource that is limited in number and will eventually vanish. Thus, the reasoning is true.

Thus,

  • Assertion is false.
  • Reasoning is true.

So the correct answer is (d).
