How this return was calculated

We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($3,276,455) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (544,423), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $6.02 per $10 ticket — $0.60 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $3.98 per ticket.

Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~3,645,750 tickets).
