In Austin I pay about 1.3 cents/gallon, or 10.4 cents/cubic foot of water, $10.40/CCF. This is including waste water service, which is nearly twice as much as water service (but based on the same amount of water).
However, this is based on my own bill (total billed amount divided by total water used) -- a bit tricky since there are tiers and surcharges.
Also, we're under water restrictions due to the drought - water the lawn once a week, no washing your car in the driveway, etc.
Probably the greatest monetary cost you could cause the owner to incur is if they thought the toilet was faulty in some way due to the continuous flushing and had to call in a plumber.
Also I can't believe I'm seriously having a discussion about toilets on HN. Heh.
