See below for details on the cost of compute and storage transactions as well as management canister calls for new features on the Internet Computer as of December 2, 2022.
A thorough example how the cost of running a canister on a 13-node app subnet is computed can be found [here](https://medium.com/@DBOXFoundation/findings-from-calculating-the-cycle-consumption-of-messity-a-universal-example-b2af8dcd3151).

Regarding transaction fees, the **transaction sender** is responsible for covering any/all transaction fees.
