Art museums do not usually think of their collections as capital or consider the interest income that would <<<< be generated if a portion of the capital would have been >>>>> invested in another form.
(A) be generated if a portion of the capital would have been
(B) have been generated if a portion of the capital would have been
(C) be generated if a portion of the capital were
(D) be generated if a portion of the capital was
(E) be generated if a portion of the capital had been

"would have been" wrong => A and B out!
I pick C. "If a portion of capital were invested, interest income would be generated".
