Correct option is D
Statement:
Recent marketing trends suggest that words like 'premium', 'exquisite', and 'priority' are considered prestigious by consumers of the middle-income group and hence increase the chances of sale of any product advertised with these words.
Assumption I:
The products advertised with the said 'prestigious' words definitely cost higher than those which are not advertised with such words.
This assumption is not necessarily implied by the statement. The statement discusses the impact of certain words on sales, but it does not mention that these words correlate with higher product prices. The focus is on the perception these words create, not the cost of the product. So, Assumption I is not valid.
Assumption II:
Such prestigious words have no impact on sales among the lower income group.
The statement doesn't address the impact of these words on lower-income groups. It only mentions the middle-income group, so the assumption that these words have no impact on the lower income group cannot be definitively assumed from the statement. Thus, Assumption II is also not valid.
Neither Assumption I nor Assumption II assumed.

Thus, correct option is (d).
