You get a discount.
If the upgrade is between different base types such as SD to US IIRC you get 50% of both minerals & resources of the SD cost counted towards the US cost.
However, if the upgrade is a redesign of the same base type, eg they're both US, then cost is assessed slot by slot. Examples:
1. 16 Arm replaces 16 AMP in the same slot there will be a small cost in both Bor and res & the full cost in both Iron & Germ.
2. 16 AMP replaces 16 Arm in the same slot there will be a small cost in both Bor and res & no cost in both Iron & Germ (the Iron & Germ value of the missiles are tossed away).
3. 16 AMP moved from one slot to another the full cost applies for the 2nd slot. The upgrade cost would be identical if you had left the AMPs in the first slot & added 16 in the 2nd slot.
