60 watts for 24 hours is 1440 watt-hours, or 1.44 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per day. Multiply this by the kWh cost for your utility. If it is 10 cents per kWh, then it would be 14.4 cents per day.

If you are really concerned with accuracy, note that voltage variations will cause the lamp to consume a different amount of power. The 60 watt rating is for the exact voltage on the lamp.

The cost would depend on what power company supplies your electricity, each company charges a different price.

Depends on your kwh cost from your electric company.

Here's a great site to help you figure those things out once you know what your kwh cost is.

Depends on how much your electric company is charging you per kilowatt hour.
