It will depend on their mobile carrier and the plan that person has with their mobile carrier. No different than had you asked the question about calling from the US to the EU. Without details, the answer is something from very little to a great deal.
Do note that unless the individual has no access to WiFi, Skype, Google Hangout or any number of other VOIP-based services are anywhere from free to fractional cents per minute, again, all depending on the exact service and plan.

I call my mom in the US from Cyprus. My mom doesn't do computers so I can't Skype her. It generally costs me about 2 euros for a 20 minute call (that includes VAT). It's quite reasonable - I only call once a month or so.

So your other person doesn't need to do computers at all 😉

This would be a good point for a sticky. Many people in other parts of the world are used to telecom systems which are a patchwork of land and mobile lines with differing pricing for inbound calls. Not so for the US or Canada.

The receiving party on a mobile phone is the one paying for receiving the calls.
