The AIPLA Report of the Economic Survey for 2017 notes that the typical patent infringement suit with less than $1 million at stake costs on average costs more than $600,000 dollars, while the typical patent infringement suit with between $1-10 million at stake costs on average nearly $1.5 million to litigate.

Costs for IPR or Post-Grant Review (approximate mean):

    Through filing petition: $120,000.
    Through end of motion practice: $300,000.
    Through PTAB hearing: $400,000.
    Through appeal: $600,000



Arithmetic mean isn't a useful guide for litigation. Take the $600,000 as your entry price and you are on the right track.
