How to use it

There are two verbs here, and only one of them is irregular. When cost means to have a price, the past tense is cost: the repair cost four hundred pounds. When it means to work out the price of something, an accounting sense, the past tense is regularly costed: the team costed the project before signing. So costed is correct, but only in that narrower professional meaning, and using it for the everyday sense is the mistake people are usually asking about.
