Is it public (or common) knowledge what an IB like JPMorgan takes home in terms of $$$ for a deal of this size?

I've heard it from a friend working at one that it's 0.5-2% of a deal (the bigger the deal the smaller the cut), and here's a Quora discussion that corroborates that figure [0].

For public deals, banks will give a fairness opinion and they have to publicly disclose their fees in the relevant securities filings. This data is aggregated by various services (likely behind a paywall), which would let you slice and dice it by deal size.
