The cheapest I'd recommend would be about $100 for a Takamine Jasmine or Epiphone DR-100. Any guitar at that price will be all laminate (plywood), which has a more dull and muted sound than a guitar with a solid spruce top. I really like the Yamaha FG700S at $199. That guitar has a solid spruce top and sounds great for the price. It is also a well made guitar that is easy to play, stays in tune well, and should last you a while as you learn to play better.
Obviously you can spend thousands of dollars on a great guitar, but for a beginner I'd say you'd pay around $200 for a good quality guitar, about $100 for a passable guitar to start learning on, and anything less than $100 you'll be very quickly disappointed with.
FWIW, I have a very nice Guild D4NT acoustic guitar which I paid $650 for about 15 years ago (back when they were still making them in the US before Fender bought Guild). I'm currently saving up to get a Taylor 314ce which will be around $1500. I also have a nice Parker electric guitar I paid around $800 for on Ebay. I've been playing guitar for 40 years and am the worship leader at my church, so I play every Sunday. My first decent acoustic guitar though was a $100 Epiphone back when I was about 9 years old, but compared to the Guild I have now it was a bear to play and I would never play on that quality of guitar again at this point.

Answer
I recommend an Acoustic depending on how much you wanna pay Id recommend a Martin and Company they can price anywhere from 600-1500+ dollars. They have one of the best sounds Ive ever heard, also Ovation guitars they price anywhere from 800-3000 dollars. Sounds step but you would never have to worry about buying another acoustic. If you don't like the price you can look at Ibanez about 150- 300 dollars. With Electric guitars I highly recommend Ibanez RG series guitars 300-600 dollars and Gibson Les Paul 1500+ dollars. Any more question just email me.
