How much are new "security" procedures going to cost?

I certainly can't do it, but can anyone calculate how much these new "security" procedures are going to cost?

TSA overtime
new TSA hirings
lost time/productivity standing in line to check bags
lost time/productivity standing in security line
cost to purchase new toothpaste, deodorant, gel inserts, baby teethers, etc., etc. when luggage is lost or delayed
cost of lost luggage
loss of time/productivity and cost to visit doctor to get prescriptions for
certain items
cost of purchasing a 4 oz. bottle of Robitussin (or whatever else) vs more economical 8 oz. bottle
