There was a recent report, it only helps during the first few months of sales according to a very flimsy study that was done.

It suggests that it only saves a mean of 15% total revenue during the first 12 weeks.

Though remember, these figures are all just theoretical projections of sales. Basically just "well we believe we should have made this much revenue. So if we don't make it, it means we lost potential revenue, not that we simply didn't make as much as we thought we would."
