It's hard to say where E&Y is on the food chain. Do you mean in Audit practice, Tax, consulting or all revenues combined? Do you want to know how many clients or what? Their Audit side is good and has been growing nicely. They have a very large Tax practice. Overall I believe they are probably third or fourth of the Big Five.

E&Y would be the bottom of the 'top 4' (unless your 4 implies a no-longer-existent AA :). Of the Big 5, E&Y would rank 4th, above Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, but below the really big dogs:

1) - PricewaterhouseCoopers

2) - Arthur Andersen (for the time being, anyway :)

3) - KPMG
