Higher salaries and latest requirement for extended roster generate wide team with average players.
The superstars with high salary that went through huge training investments worth nothing these days. Bonus that motivate keeping such players specifically is critical.
Using your formula i would put b = 2 to properly address that.

If you're simply asking us, would we like more revenue then yes.

Thanks,

Yes, you should bring more money into the game in order to balance out the increased median salaries and restore value in training.

Yes, you should do part of it via merchandising. The current idea seems legit but the percentage needs to be higher imho. Around 20-25% at least. You could think about binding it to the next paid player if the aim is to have superstars dispersed more evenly. The higher the difference - the bigger the bonus.

And yes - you probably should bring a bit more money into the game via the TV contract as well. But definitely you should also increase the salary floors (%) in all divisions. This will achieve two goals at the same time:

1) Will make tanking much less efficient. Competitive teams won't feel it at all.
2) Will virtually give a bit more money to teams in lower divisions (the salary floor is a percentage of TV money - the higher the league level, the bigger the %)

If it helps, it could even have a fixed % over the average of top 2/3 players, as needed I suppose.

I think this is part of the "other" possible changes/means of extra revenue.
Not sure if the "team consolidation" won't do something there already, at least at the lower divisions.
Sounds promissing though I'm sure it's something that has to be tinkered with carefully in order to keep things "balanced", especially with such diversity between countries.

Besides the salary floor, over-extension should be considered, too. Give the bonus only to those who doesn't pay over-extension tax (-bonus). I believe that the arguments to over-extension tax, mostly apply to merchandise bonus as well.
