What does it cost a refinery to produce just one gallon of regular unleaded gasoline?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) May 27th, 2010

I realize that one gallon of regular unleaded gasoline costs us about $2.79 at the pump. but, what is the actual cost involved for a refinery to produce this gasoline? state and local taxes lay a heavy burden on a gallon of gasoline, so, what does a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline cost to produce at a refinery?
