Darren Chester, the transport minister further of Australia claimed that the cost of the investigation has now reached over Aus $200 million or 150 million USD already. But stating the cost wasn't the factor in the decision of pulling out the search but it came after the designated search zone of more than 120,000 square kilometers or 46sqm were already completed but isn't successful.
