After 10,000 mi. break-in:

23 49,000 9.5
$115 $123.5
Each change=
5 quarts & 1 filter
$23 $9.5
This assumes 9,000 mi change interval for synth,
and does not count for store trips, underhood time,
etc....
Synth is Cheaper, and I'll bet that the dino oilers
will have to add a couple of quarts in 40,000 mi, since
dino oil boils away under normal use, and synth does not.
