iMac yellow screen

I have a late 2012 iMac (21.5inch). I thought 21.5 models were immune to this issue, but I noticed bottom half of the screen is showing some yellow tint compared to upper half. I thought it was due to the angle of the screen and lighting in my room but that changed when I put my MacBook pro right next to my iMac. Compared to my mid 2009 MacBook Pro, the iMac's screen has a definite yellower time to it..

How much will it cost to replace the screen to eliminate the yellow tint? Please, no replies about taking my iMac to Apple store or calling them. I've already called several different Apple stores, and they have no idea. And please, no Applecare answers or "expensive" answers. I just want exact numbers.

iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

If you want exact numbers, your iMac will need to be physically examined by a repair tech. Or research a price through iFixit.

If you do have AppleCare, onsite service is available for desktop computers if you have AppleCare. You need to request this service from a supervisor and/or go through Customer Relations.
