this question refers to material cost not labor cost

Your question isnt specific enough.
There are two types of costs: capitial/initial/non-recurring and operational/continuing/recurring. You have not specified the type of cost that you are looking for.
It could be that the labor to install the thing is the most expensive component, or crane rental ($100+ per hr) or both.
Are you looking for a capital cost, or an operational cost?
Are you looking only for part/objects costs or are you also looking to include human costs?

If your question refers to the component pats of the transformer then the most expensive is the copper used for its windings.
