The report's claim about Macmoo's tuition reimbursement program rests on which assumption?
A) Tuition costs have risen dramatically in recent years.
B) The cost of going to college is higher than the average salary of a Macmoo employee.
C) Macmoo did not create the program primarily in order to attract top talent to the organization.
D) Benefit programs provide a more cost-efficient way to provide benefits to employees because of tax advantages.
E) The program is the only example of Macmoo's awareness of its founders' values.
Answer: C
Explanation: C) The annual report claims that the tuition reimbursement program is an example of how the company puts people ahead of profits, but if Choice C is false, then the program could be designed to improve profits by helping the company attract top talent. Choice C must be assumed, or the real motivation would be different than the report claims. Choices A and B make the program sound more generous but don't need to be true in order for the motivation to be the way the report describes. Choices D and E undercut the argument.
