Morphology
The meaning 'the total expenses for promoting and selling a product' is directly and compositionally derived from 'marketing' (promoting/selling activities) + 'cost' (monetary amount). This modifier+head noun pattern is regular and cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
The phrase marketing cost gives a simple money picture: marketing is the work of telling people about a product and cost is the money you have to pay. So, marketing cost means the total money spent 'to promote and sell' a product or service.
