What 575 means on a settlement sheet
Illustrative face-value gross at three ticket prices and three sell-through levels. Real nets land lower: comps consume capacity without revenue, and per-ticket fees sit between face value and what the show keeps.
| Sell-through | $20 ticket | $30 ticket | $45 ticket |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100% (575 tickets) | $11,500 | $17,250 | $25,875 |
| 85% (489 tickets) | $9,775 | $14,663 | $21,994 |
| 70% (403 tickets) | $8,050 | $12,075 | $18,113 |
Whether a show pencils at these numbers depends on the guarantee and cost base, not the gross — break-even is the number that decides.
