Ross had a 2 million dollar budget and record companies in the US get a little bit over 7 dollars from retailers for every sold unit...
I used 7,2 dollars
2 000 000 / 7,2 = 277 778 units actually, Ross has to sell to go even.
----
You can also put his single sales and future royalties into the picture wich would give Def Jam an higher income, but thats harder to calculate.
----
If we put these numbers against Curtis wich had a worldwide budget of 27 million dollars, and sold what? 3 million copies world wide? Please correct me.
lets say they get 7,2 dollars on world wide sales (it's probably 6,5 in europe and 5 in asia)
3 000 000 x 7,2 = 21 600 000
so thats -5 400 000 dollars, quite big flop on Curtis for interscope
game over, monkeeeyyy!

tour money? ringtones?
well, tour money has little to do with their album budgets unless they pay for their own music videos...but royalties will probably give both record labels more income...but Curtis is still a FLOP...
Interscope is never giving 50 cent a Michael Jackson budget again...

worldwide budget? 27 million?
where do these numbers come from? curtis was a low budget album. Only famous producer he had on it was Timbo and a throwaway Dre beat

lol. Truth. If you guys spent as much time worrying about your own money than some rappers, you'd be billionaires by now.
