The comparison is done between two values of spending or between the spending of year 2013 and $20 billion.
I am of the opinion that option C compares 'spending' with '$20 billion' which is corrected in Option D with the addition of 'reached in'.
What am I missing?
Both C and D compare $40 billion dollars with $20 billion dollars correctly. The part "reached in" is unnecessary in option D - the same idea is expressed using fewer no. of words in option C. Hence C is better than D.
