That's not the retail price, that's the shipment price (the price paid by local importers/distributors to the manufacturer).

The first sentence explains it all:
That was in 1988-1989.

As for Smart Vision sales I am quoting Ricoh's consolidated accounts so everything is included here.
Pentax-branded medical products belong to Hoya and shan't be added. The microscope business doesn't belong to Ricoh either. Spotting scopes are included in Smart Vision.
Concerning the denominator: indeed shipments reported by CIPA are only those of Japanese companies and total shipments should be higher (add Hasselblad, Leica, Phase One, Yi, lenses sold by Korean and Chinese companies, compact cameras sold by Chinese companies and more).
Doing so would further reduce the calculated market share of Pentax and Ricoh Imaging.

Definitely no, see above. Smart Vision sales amounted to ¥20.2bn in 2017. Camera shipments (including both cameras with built-in lens and ILCs) amounted to ¥792.8bn. Lens shipments amounted to ¥414.3bn. Total is ¥1,207.1bn. Global sales of 360° cameras such as Theta cameras would have to be added on top of that to determine the relevant market.
20.2 ÷ 1,207.1 = 1.67% but the denominator should be a higher number.

Less than that actually.
The sales of the Smart Vision division, which includes but is not limited to Pentax (it also includes Ricoh GR, WG, Theta and rugged professional cameras), during calendar year 2017 were ¥20.2bn.
During the same period and according to CIPA data the shipments of ILCs amounted to ¥578.3bn and those of interchangeable lenses to ¥414.3bn. Total is ¥992.6bn. These figures are shipments and are therefore lower than the corresponding sales. They don't include accessories (e.g. flashes, batteries, chargers, grips) nor do they include services (e.g. repairs), yet the corresponding sales are included in the sales of Smart Vision.
20.2 ÷ 992.6 = 2.04% but Pentax is only a portion of the numerator and the denominator should be a higher number to ensure consistency.
