The cost of the monument is 14,000 F. It is financed by a national subscription launched by the central committee (12,000 F), a government donation (700 F), a subsidy from the town hall (1000 F), and a donation from a private patron. The Boulogne-sur-Mer local committee did not launch a local subscription, as one had already been opened for the Coquelin monument.
