Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 2 red aces, 2 red Queens, and 13 spades.  That leaves 35 cards for everything else.

For the game to be fair, the cost must equal the expected value.  The expected value is the sum of each outcome times its probability.

C = (12) (13/52) + (20) (2/52) + (38) (2/52) + (0) (35/52)

C = 68/13

C ≈ 5.2308
