If you click on the arrow beside the dollar value, it will show you the breakdown in crypto.
and the author gets 75% of that ... so roughly 580SBD, 12.28 SSP and 245 Steem. For simplicity, if they were all equal to SBD = 837.33SBD.
So, the poster spent 1190SBD to get a return of 837SBD.
using an exchange of 1.75 for SBD to USD
The poster spent $2082USD to get a return of $1465.

The owners of the votebots always win though.:-)
