The total remittance transfers sent across the world from the top three industrial nations in recent years is almost $100 billion annually, according to the Government Budget Office, or roughly the equivalent of those three countries' foreign assistance budget.

A. years is almost $100 billion annually, according to the Government Budget Office, roughly the equivalent of those three countries' foreign assistance budgets.

B. years is almost $100 billion annually, according to the Government Budget Office, or roughly the equivalent of those three countries' foreign assistance budgets.

C. years are almost $100 billion annually, according to the Government Budget Office, or roughly the equivalent of those three countries' foreign assistance budgets.

D. years - almost $100 billion annually - are, according to the Government Budget Office, roughly the equivalent of those three countries' foreign assistance budgets.

E. years, an amount that is almost $100 billion annually, are, according to the Government Budge Office, roughly the equivalent of the foreign assistance budgets of those three countries.
You can, for example never foretell what any one man will do, but you can say with precision what an average number will be up to!

A good question also deserves a Thanks.

I'm between C and D , Don't see anything wrong with C. Maybe D is the right answer since using "OR" in this sentence is not necessary.
