The World Bank has developed a computer program that assesses the authenticity of world currency suspected of being counterfeit. The program contains extensive profiles of the printing techniques and components of currencies of all major nations; such profiles include chemical composition of paper, density of ink, and details in the printing plates that are invisible to the naked eye. Counterfeiters, including the best counterfeiters known from history, cannot hope to reproduce all facets of a particular nation’s currency.
Which of the following can be logically concluded from the passage above?
A. The staff resources required to prepare currency for analysis by the program make use of the program prohibitively expensive.
B. Consumer banks will soon purchase the right to use the program on their own computers.
C. The program cannot fail to identify as inauthentic counterfeit currency that has previously escaped detection.
D. The authentication program has taken a number of years to develop.
E. In numerous cases, authentic currency is not recognized as authentic by the program.

C IMO because the stimulus says "The World Bank has developed a computer program" which means such program did not exist in the past. Furthermore it says, "The program contains extensive profiles of the printing techniques and components of currencies of all major nations" and "Counterfeiters cannot hope to reproduce all facets of a particular nation’s currency."
E also seems plausible, but to me E seems more of an inference than a conclusion supported by the entire stimulus.

C. The program cannot fail to identify as inauthentic counterfeit currency that has previously escaped detection.
Because those counterfeit that are not widely circulated is difficult to detect . The programme contain even the chemical composition of the paper used for printing the authentic currency and hence it is highly possible that it detect all types of counterfeit.
