2 hrs confidence:

"amount of expenses"

Explanation:
La palabra "amount" me parece más indicada para este contexto, me parece una mejor equivalencia para "volumen" y consta en varias entradas en Google.

Dejo alguna referencia.

Example sentence(s):

"If the Tribunal believes that the amount of expenses is not reasonable, it may make an order determining the amount it considers reasonable."
"Order in council respecting fees and the nature and amount of expenses relating to certain property under the administration of the Public Curator."

level of expenditure

Explanation:
This is a more common expression- there are 240,000 hits for this on google compared to 110,000 for 'level of expenses'.
Interesting that Spanish conceptualises this in 3 dimensions, whereas English seems to think 2 dimensionally in terms of level.

Example sentence(s):

Many countries are concerned that their level of expenditure on health care is constantly rising.
The more prosperous regions receive a higher level of expenditure than poorer ones.
