it depends on several things. chemicals needed/ cost – total electrical demand/cost per KWHR- maintenance repair costs. somewhere it should list the normal power required to operate in both standby and use cycles. most use either 2 pumps or a single 2 speed pump. the running wattage of the pump[s] and the wattage of the heater are your major costs. for example a 120 volt unit might have a 3/4 HP& 1/10th HP duel speed pump and a 1KW heater. total wattage when running – motor 1200, heater 1000- total 2200. if electric costs 10cents a KWHR your cost would be 22 cents an hour when in use. standby would be perhaps 1/4 of running costs depending in insulation and heat loss. say $1 a day for power on standby.
Hard question to answer as there are many factors involved. I live in north east US and have a 350 gallon tub. I keep temp at 102 degrees. I estimate that it cost between $2.50 and $3.00 per day to operate. This is a small price to pay for the pleasure I get by using it every day. It would be a pretty expensive luxury if it were only used once or twice a month.
