By definition, government expenditure refers to the money used in the acquisition of goods and services for current use. In this case, the government expenditure is simply equivalent to investment.

Government expenditure =  $400 billion

From economics: I=S+T–G+M–X

Where

I = Investment

S = Savings

T= Tax revenues

G =Government budget

M = Import

X = Export

Rearraging to get G:

G = S – I + T + M – X

G = $400 billion - $400 billion + $500 billion + $200 billion - $300 billion

G = Government budget =  $400 billion
