This paper studies the gap between quantum one-way communication complexity
Q
(
f
) and its classical counterpart
C
(
f
), under the
unbounded-error
setting, i.e., it is enough that the success probability is strictly greater than 1/2. It is proved that for
any
(total or partial) Boolean function
f
,
Q
(
f
) = ⌈
C
(
f
)/2 ⌉, i.e., the former is always exactly one half as large as the latter. The result has an application to obtaining an exact bound for the existence of (
m
,
n
,
p
)-QRAC which is the
n
-qubit random access coding that can recover any one of
m
original bits with success probability ≥
p
. We can prove that (
m
,
n
, > 1/2)-QRAC exists if and only if
m
≤ 2
2
n
− 1. Previously, only the non-existence of (2
2
n
,
n
, > 1/2)-QRAC was known.
