How is RRR calculated?

In Albion Online, production bonuses add up: 18% base in a royal city, +15% when crafting in the specialty city, +40% when refining in the resource's city, +59% with focus, plus any daily bonuses.

RRR is then derived from the total bonus: RRR = 1 − 1 / (1 + bonus). A 117% bonus (specialty refining with focus) gives 53.9% of resources returned.
