Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The passage states that although the number of equity offerings and debt offerings were about equal, the underwriting fees generated were higher for equity. Thus, option C is the correct statement. Option A is incorrect because although the underwriting fees were higher for equity, it does not state that there were an equal number of equity and debt offerings. Option B is incorrect because it states that the size of equity offerings was twice as large, which is not mentioned in the passage. Option D is incorrect because it states that there were twice as many equity offerings, which is opposite to what is mentioned in the passage. The statement that there were only about half the number of equity offerings as debt offerings, but the underwriting fees generated were higher for equity, is true based on the information given. The other statements are not accurate according to the information provided in the passage.
