Cost of a bug

Suppose you do a typo, a simple spelling mistake in your code. What is the cost of the bug?
If it is caught:
  • at development environment - 1 min of developer's time
  • at code review - Reviewer's time and developer's time .
  • at testing environment - Build time, tester's time, developer's time.
  • at staging environment - Tester's time, developer's time, testing environment build and re-test time, staging environment build and re-test time.
  • at production environment - Tester's time, developer's time, testing environment build and re-test time, staging environment build and re-test time, production environment build and re-test time, bad name in the memory of users who has already noticed the typo.
  • by client - Start preparing for another project/job.

Think about it!!!!
