I heard the credit spread on corporate bonds is just the amount of tears shed by the poor saps who bought them.

D? Really? The difference between the coupon rate and the dividend? That's like apples and oranges, man.

Hmm, I'm torn between B and C. I guess I'll go with C, just to be safe. Credit risk, you know?

Yes, that's correct. The credit spread reflects the risk of default by the issuer, which is why investors demand a higher yield.
