Major Olympic sponsors  have not made any public comments on how they will plan to advertise during the Games. \n\n\n  Spokespeople from Toyota, Coca-Cola, Airbnb, Alibaba, Visa, Intel and General Electric did not respond to requests for comments on this story. \n\n\n  See also: Tom Brady jokes with Biden at the White House: 'They started calling me Sleepy Tom'  \n\n\n  The budget for the Tokyo Olympics catapulted above $20 billion after the Games were postponed a year ago, according to The Wall Street Journal . Some of those costs include billion-dollar stadium renovations, Olympic Village construction, and event marketing. \n\n\n  This $20 billion cost could be offset with the revenue from the Games, but revenue will be lower than projected because the Tokyo games will no longer have fans in attendance. \n\n\n  Empty stadiums will cost the Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (OCOG) at least $800 million in ticketing losses . \n\n\n  However, ticketing is only a fraction of the problem from the empty stadiums in Tokyo. According to local organizers , visitors in Japan for the Games would have spent roughly $2 billion on meals, transportation, hotels and merchandise. \n\n\n  The OCOG budgeted for a projected revenue of $6.7 billion  for the Tokyo Games, far lower than its estimated costs -- but that estimate includes revenue from fans buying tickets. \n\n\n  The Tokyo Olympics will still bring in money from sponsors and TV revenue, but the overall revenue picture is unclear due to the pandemic. \n\n\n  It's worth noting that many Olympic Games are not profitable  compared with $18 billion in costs. \n\n\n  See also: AOC casts doubt on inflation wave: Price increases are 'sector specific' and could be due to 'supply-chain issues'  \n\n\n  Many governments and host cities will tout that beyond the revenue shortfalls of the Games, having the Olympics lifts the economy by creating jobs and boosting tourism for years. These measures are harder to quantify but many studies have found these claims about employment  to be more ambiguous. \n\n\n  \"The world is faced with great difficulties,\" Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga  said on Monday. He then added \"we can bring success to the delivery of the Games.\" \n\n\n  If the Olympic Games were canceled, the IOC would have to refund nearly $4 billion  to its broadcast partners. \n\n\n  See also: Tokyo Olympic opening ceremony director fired over 1998 Holocaust joke  \n\n\n  The Olympic Games have not made much economic sense for host cities in recent years as the costs continue to skyrocket .
