Here you go[0]. Some highlights:
1. $2.988 billion in state/city subsidies (so ~$48,000 per job)
2. The state estimated that Amazon will generate $27.5 billion in state and city revenue over 25 years, a 9:1 ratio of revenue to subsidies.
Using the numbers above, we can calculate that the state would break even in roughly 3 years if they're correct.
