As for "reinstall" cost, I'm going to guess 66% of the cost of the game's current MSRP. Unless each game has a unique identifier and they delete the game from your library of games when the new owner installs it, then it might be less, but I doubt they'll do that.

Are they going to possibly have different SKUs for rentals? Or is the game rental market killed off completely with this generation?
If you are talking retail margin, as a retailer I can tell you margin is about $1-2 per game. The money is in rebates based on sales and still isn't very much
