You can find a lot of useful cost studies here at the GPI website (Genuine
Progress Index):
http://www.gpiatlantic.org/publications/pubs.htm


There is also lit review there on the health costs of poverty and the
approaches that could be used to do a full report

Thanks Dennis
 
This looks excellent.

The Ontario Association of Food Banks produced a similar report in 2008:
The cost of poverty: An analysis of the economic cost of poverty in Ontario
http://www.oafb.ca/assets/pdfs/CostofPoverty.pdf
 
I am not aware of many other studies arguing the *economic* case for
reducing poverty. Are there more out there?
