How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($1,930,930) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (137,841), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $14.01 per $20 ticket — $0.70 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $5.99 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~1,853,980 tickets).
