OA: C - ...it estimates that this year 73 percent will be profitable(ellipses)
A, B, E - incorrect - pronoun error - ..inter study (singular)....they(plural)
A - incorrect - redundancy error - unnecessary they
D - incorrect - redundancy error - unnecessary it

I think C is comma spliced, but it is best among the alternatives.
