There was no budget for the Holocaust and the victims had to pay for their own sufferings and their death. In 1939-40 the SS became in part a vast business entreprise. The Holocaust was financed by slave labour hired out (under SS discipline) to private entreprise. About 2,000 (!) German corporations used SS slave labour ... In addition, the victims' assets and personal possessions were seized by the SS and stolen. In all, the SS made money from the Holocaust. According to the Holocaust historian Raul Hilberg, the Nazis made more from Jewish slave labour than from seized assets.

Was the cost of the war higher for the North or the South?
In terms of dollars spent, the US government spent much more money than did the Confederacy. In order to field its large armies and provide all the support needed, the cost was high. And they had the resources from which to spend. In terms of human costs, the South had been greatly damaged because of the war. Many farms were completely destroyed and the South did not participate in the growth that the North enjoyed.
