I am not going to waste any more time with people who just keep ignoring what's being said. I have not been in D1 only twice in the last 15 seasons or so, I know exactly how much my merch income was and the league average because I track the economy numbers among many other things.
What you say is irrelevant in this discussion: the merchandising money boost from NT players is directly linked to 3 factors:
1 minutes played for the NT
2 salary of the player
3 nationality
If the player is homegrown (you drafted him) he will definitely provide an additional boost to merchandising, but no evidence has been provided (that I know of) that a homegrown player will bring in a higher % of salary as merch income from NT games than any other player of the same nationality. Homegrown teams with no NT players usually have a much higher merch income than normal teams.
All of this doesn't change at different division levels. So if the boost is 50k in D1 it would be the same 50k in D2 or D3 or D4.
