How about $1.08 for the whole thing, for a finished
product (not just the of materials), including labor
and including shipping?

Or pay $0.00 if your machine comes with a built-in
audio subsystem.
It's an audio device, so it comes with a documented
standard interface. Also the fact that it has an
output comes in handy for calibration and for
life-long quality-assurance checks.
It's as secure as anything you could build yourself.
The entropy delivery rate is high enough for all
ordinary purposes.
