How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($5,612,610) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (1,623,267), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $3.46 per $5 ticket — $0.69 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $1.54 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~4,762,080 tickets).
