|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $952 |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $829 |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $750 |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $525 |

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 3 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 13 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$7.3k net in total, assuming a unit uplift of x3.0 (industry-typical for old catalog titles). Same ±30-50% error range applies.

## Methodology

Units are estimated from Steam-purchase reviews times a release-cohort multiplier (Boxleiter method, 20-75x by year). Revenue uses an effective price (lifetime discounts and regional pricing) and nets out VAT (~13%), refunds (~9.5%) and Steam's 30% cut: roughly 55% of gross reaches the developer.
