Construction of the infrastructure to build them cost $2,000,000,000 but the incremental cost per bomb was much less, I doubt they cost a million a piece and the cost would have dropped with increased production.

How did the nuclear bomb solve Americans problems in world war 2?
it ended the war quickly, at low cost in terms of both money and lives lost on both sides.
Why did Eisenhower favor the development of nuclear weapons such as the hydrogen bomb?
He believed that developing nuclear weapons instead of preparing for conventional war was more cost-efficient.
How much would it cost today to build an atomic bomb today like the one US dropped on Japan?
The first atomic bombs cost billions because they had to learn how to gather uranium and plutonium into a form that was good enough for a bomb and they had to design the bomb. Now a nuclear missile cost would be probably about a million or more. The cost of the newer missile is in the housing and maintenance of the missile.
How does an atomic bomb effect the economy?
The atomic bomb made Japan's economy temporarily collapse, but, with the help of the United States, got back on it's feet. See it as if a person punched some-one, but then helped them back up. Japan lost many farms, which made the stock market branch in farming collapse. Nagasaki was a major industrial city, and the A-bomb (atomic bomb) took out the stock market branch of the industries. Remember, get your facts straight.
Why did president Eisenhower favor the development in nuclear weapons?
The Soviet Union had exploded its own nuclear bomb (a fission bomb) in 1949, and Truman wanted the United States to stay ahead of the Soviet Union... as did lots of other people. So a fusion bomb (more powerful than a fission bomb, but used a fission reaction to set off a fusion reaction) was developed.
What is the cost price of a nuclear weapon grade uranium?
In very round figures, the cost of enough Oralloy (93.5% HEU) or Plutonium to make a bomb is somewhere between $100,000 and $1,000,000, with Plutonium being a bit cheaper at this time.
Where in Tennessee was the first nuclear bomb made?
Nowhere. The first atomic bomb was made in Los Alamos, New Mexico. However uranium was enriched in several large plants at Oak Ridge, Tennessee. This site was selected by the Manhattan Project due to the available of low cost electricity from the Tennessee Valley Authority, which was needed to operate the thousands of pumps in the Gaseous Diffusion enrichment process. This uranium was used in the Little Boy bomb (the second atomic bomb detonated, the first atomic bomb used in combat) and at low enrichment levels in the Hanford plutonium production reactor's fuel.
What was the cost of the bomb that America dropped on japan?
The cost of creating the atomic bomb was approximately two billion dollars.
What did the atomic bomb cost to be made?
Back in World War Two, the atomics costs were different to today’s cost in a sense since back them it was not only building the bomb but the research on how to get it done. The entire Manhattan Project in total cost more than 2 billion dollars in history records.
How much does it cost to make a nuclear bomb in 2012?
No one's built a nuclear weapon in over 15 years, except for experiments in North Korea. America hasn't built any for almost 40 years. That said adjusting for inflation, it would cost roughly $150,000-$200,000 dollars; less if you buy preprepared fissile fuel.
