A. two times as much on marketing their products as they do on developing them, as doing so
-> better options available with a concise word "twice"
B. twice as much on marketing their products as they do on developing them, as it
-> no particular antecedent for it
C. twice as much on marketing their products as they do on developing them, for it
-> no particular antecedent for it
D. twice as much on marketing their products as they do on developing them, as the marketing of their products
-> seems to be correct but lets check Option E too.
E. twice as much on marketing their products as they do on developing them, as doing so
-> this is almost the same as Option D but the phrase "as doing so" may refer to either "developing them" or "marketing". Hence Option D looks better as it clarifies the referred action
