Lets do some Algebra to figure out avg sales prices of the 3 consoles.
We know that total hardware revenue is $1.08 billion. We know that X360 avg price was $290. We know that between the 3 consoles the revenue split was X360 46%, PS3 29%, Wii 24%.
X360 revenue is $290*1,370,000 = 397,300,000
Formula for total revenue is X*.46=397,300,000 solve for X.
X*.46=397,300,000 X=397,300,000/.46 X=863,695,652
So revenue per console
Wii $207,286,956 PS3 $250,471,739 X360 $397,300,000
Avg price of console
Wii = $177 = $207,286,956 / 1,170,000 PS3 = $472 = $250,471,739 / 530,000 - This doesnt seem right 360 = $290 = $397,300,000
Everything seems right except the PS3 avg price. No way was the PS3 avg price was $472. Did I calculate something wrong. Wii avg price was heavily effected by special pricing.
