What it costs me to run a heater does not depend on how much you are charged, but a 1500 watt heater would use 1500 watt-hours or 1.5 kWh for every hour it is run. Run for 24 hours it would use 36 kWh, also known as 36 units.
They usually require less power, but you can get a very small bulb that will run less power. All in all though, halogen is the least efficient when it comes to heat, power, and amount of lumens (light) it projects.
0.260kW * 4h * $0.20/kWh = $0.208
To calculate a cost in kW/h a time interval has to be stated. How long is the 400 watt heater going to be on in a 24 hour period. You also have to state what you are being charged from the utility power company per kW/h.

Propane heaters cost less to run per hour.
Track lighting is cheaper in the long run as it uses halogen lights which take much longer to burn out, however the initial cost of a dome light is much cheaper.
