I was mistaken, drop rates were infact mentioned in the FAQ. http://forums.zynga.com/showthread.php?t=779480

However, looking again i think the wording used may be worth a little attention, as it does not mention specifically consumables in the first statement. (i guess i assumed this was the case). So don't take my word for it i guess...

"Factoid: Item loot drops percentages are scaled to the amount of energy/stamina spent on the job. There is no incentive to stay in a lower tier to 'farm' for item loot. (Factoid added 10/18)

Factoid: Factoid, like Vegas, job consumables, property parts, collection items, and loot drops will occur and random and at varying rarities. Job consumables will drop from specific jobs. Specific loot drops will only drop in specific regions. (Factoid added 10/18)"

Given the wording used it is entirely possible that the scaling only applies to non-consumable items.
