The link below is the fee schedule for the US Trademark & Patent Office. Actually filing a patent is the cheap and easy part. Researching to be sure the invention does not violate an existing patent and creating the paperwork to file will cost many times more than filing the patent. Depending on what the invention is, developing the idea to a level that can be patented may cost millions of times the cost of the patent itself. Any average is a worthless number.
