How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($88,841,260) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (3,765,272), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $23.59 per $30 ticket — $0.79 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $6.41 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~6,586,040 tickets).
