It probably cost about $5 with all the various accounting and other costs.

I once transferred all of my money out of an online bank and closed the account, but apparently between the time that I closed the account online and the time that it was physically closed, I had earned $0.02 interest. Consequently, I was mailed a check for 2 cents. :heh:
