How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($105,265,010) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (6,951,376), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $15.14 per $20 ticket — $0.76 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $4.86 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~7,298,220 tickets).
