How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($13,867,775) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (3,920,107), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $3.54 per $5 ticket — $0.71 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $1.46 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~3,982,140 tickets).
