The cost should never be the deciding issue of having an election or not. This is how poor democracies run by minorities end up becoming dictatorships.
Not that I want an election. I couldn't care less... but elections should happen either when the mandate ends for the governing party or when there is a significant change in public opinion.
Personally, I just want to see government work on way or another. The Conservative minority just seems to have too few friends in parliament to do anything but stall for time.
