I wonder if the production costs of the 360 will be reduced with the new Jasper chip? This will mean more profit for MS with every console sold. Cheaper production costs will also mean the selling price of the console will be reduced. Cheaper production of consoles will obviously result in price cuts in all regions that will further boost sales.

Reductions in process size always result in lower per unit cost. This is due to larger yields on each wafer.

Theres also a decent chance, since they're switching to TSMC that the cost per die would be lower anyway because of that, and perhaps the yields higher with a better quality process.

 TSMC makes all of AMD and Nvidias GPUS so it is a perfect fit with them. Honestly im confused why they didn't use them from the start!
