An inventory equal to 90 days sales is as much as even the strongest businesses carry, and then only as a way to anticipate higher prices or ensure against shortages.
(A) as much as even
(B) so much as even
(C) even so much as
(D) even as much that
(E) even so much that


Thanks
Geetha

tough one specially looking at the meaning but A should be good.
 
I am not sure but this is the way i approached which makes me go for A.
Word "AS" should be there to create parallelism with the line "then only as "
This makes it option A, B , C and D.
So much as is wrong because much is not adjective. Only an adjective can exist between So..As.
this makes ti to option A and D.
D- As much that is wrong Idiomatic usage.
 
Answer A remaining should be right.

When you are trying to compare two things use the idiom "as much as"
or "as many as".
The rest of the choices present wrong idioms.
