Factors in determining "adjusted gross"
No one yet has calculated a truly precise and definite referential adjusted gross for a film, since doing so would have to take into account most (or all) of the following:
- Box office gross on initial release
- Ticket price at time of release, or its relative price to other commodities in a given year,
- Economic conditions that may help or hurt the entertainment industry as a whole (theaters in 2008 lowered ticket prices to attract more viewers though the average ticket cost $7.00) roadshow tickets,
