Which among the following species has the highest ionisation potential?

Assertion $(A)$: Boron has a smaller first ionisation enthalpy than beryllium.
Reason $(R)$: The penetration of a $2s$-electron to the nucleus is more than the $2p$-electron; hence,the $2p$-electron is more shielded by the inner core of electrons than $2s$-electrons.
