I find the answer to this question is so awkward and so meaningless. Please explain what it means :evil:

Retailers reported moderate gains in their November sales, as much because of their sales of a year earlier being so bad as that shoppers were getting a head start on buying their holiday gifts.

Underlined portion:

of their sales of a year earlier being so bad as that.

Answer:

their sales a year earlier had been so bad as because

"because" here is as vague and ambiguous as the original !!!!!!
