This question looks very much similar to the following one:
https://www.beatthegmat.com/study-of-us- ... 15655.html
IMO (E) as reason stated by stop@800.
Also, (C) is not a valid choice because it is incomplete construction. We need an auxiliary verb at the end phrase to complete the sentence.

Although E looks best, is the use of present perfect has estimated correct ?stop@800 wrote:IMO E

is the study still estimating?
I will go with "e" as well.
use of perfect tense make sense hear, as estimate was done before and still hold true.
