Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California

Approximately how much does it cost to file a simple bankruptcy?

I do not own any real property, I have a loan on a truck that has gone to collection. I would be filing bankruptcy for 3 credit cards, student loan, and small miscellaneous bills that have gone to collection. All of these bills were accrued with my husband whom I am currently seperated from, however have not yet filed divorce due to lack of money. I am a single mom raising our children all on my own with no help from the state and can not afford to file for a Chapter 13, therefore I would be filing for Chapter 7.. My bankruptcy would be very simple...
