It costs about $.032 to produce a 1 dollar note, so an extra 500000 new bills would be about $16k. It could be even cheaper if these were old bills than needed

It could be even cheaper if these were old bills than needed to be pulled out of circulation. In that case they'ed be paying money to dispose of them anyways.

Not sure if they still burn the plastic money, would be nice to imagine they dissolve it in acid and use it to make more money (but they probably can't because of the dyes, at least).
