You may wish to explore the UTAH COBOL compiler.  It's under $100.
Can't say I know of how well it works and what features it has,
but seems like it may be at least worth a look.  It's been a while
since I've seen the advertisement so I can't say for sure where to
even look.  You may wish to dig up a few IBM PC magazines - one is
bound to have an ad somewhere...  Hope this helps,
