Well, you can buy a soda for about 50 cents. And there are 25 times as many people in the world as there are in the United States. Yet, Coca Cola doesn't get anywhere near 96 percent of its revenue outside the United States. Coca Cola is one of the best international companies in the world, and is doing very well outside the United States, but it still gets more than 30 percent of its sales from the United States. One has to be VERY careful about extrapolating revenues for the rest of the world, based on revenues from the United States.
