Multiply your power * time to get kWh, then multiply your cost per kWh times kWh.
1200W = 1.2kW
time = 1 hour
$0.05 / kWh * 1.2kW * 1 h = $0.06

1200 watts is equal to 1.2 kilowatts and your electricity cost .05 cents per kilowatt hour. So multiply 1.2kw X .05 and it cost .06 cents per hour to operate

search the web for it. like put that into any search engine and see if that works. like google, yahoo, msn, ask, or what ever you can think of. but wikipedia is the best i think.
