Solution

Both I and II are correct.

Explanation:

The proprietor of a sole proprietorship is personally liable for all the firm’s debts, meaning their personal assets can be used to repay debts if the business’s assets are inadequate. Also, the life of a sole proprietorship is uncertain because the business depends entirely on the proprietor; illness, insolvency, or the proprietor’s death may lead to the business’s termination.
