Agreed that she's not bringing in the BIG percentages any more, but she's honestly still earning a large amount for Avex. Sure there are expenses as there are with all products, but looking at the amount of revenue she pulls in, the expenses must be only a fraction of that. If she wasn't pulling in the money, they wouldn't spend so much on her.
If she was only pulling in a small amount over the expenses, it wouldn't be worth the effort on Avex's part when that money could be put into other artists etc... so clearly she earns enough to deserve what ever expenses are necessary.
