Therefore, the average salary for all workers in Kravonia is likely to increase over the next four years.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
- A Kravonians with more than one college degree earn more, on average, than do Kravonians with only one college degree.
- B The percentage of Kravonians who attend college in order to earn higher salaries is higher now than it was several years ago.
- C The higher average salary for jobs requiring a college degree is not due largely to a scarcity among the Kravonian workforce of people with a college degree.
- D The average salary in Kravonia for jobs that do not require a college degree will not increase over the next four years.
