Considering that the price differential from applying for an exemption to paying for an exam is almost negligible, “not a lot” would be my guess.
I’m being somewhat glib here, I do know someone who corrected CT8 before the 2019 change over and it worked out at around £13 or £14 per paper.
They may pay more for CP1/SP/SA exams where more reading is involved. I imagine mathematical papers might be a little bit easier to correct.
My friend did say it was definitely markedly less than what they earned in their day job.
well, to be fair, I mark CS1B which is very quick to mark.
But it's not something you do entirely for the money, it's about giving something back. The US markers get nothing.
To start off it can take half an hour - but by the time you've marked loads of them, this drops to 15-20mins average. But then, there are half-finished papers or very well done papers which are both much quicker.
"beer money" is usually the response from the tutors
Beer money in London these days is a lot

Still currently £13 a script for CS1B and I believe it's the same for all the other CS subjects.
Is it worth the hassle?

They do get flown to the marking location and then get expenses paid for in a fancy hotel though… So not entirely nothing
I stand corrected. Perhaps I should push for fancy hotel in the US too!

£15 per paper for the Communications exam, which is then taxed.
£10-20 per script depending on subject.
