I think it's a mix of a tactic that spends extreme money in one release(the sheer sum of money spend can be a promotional device) and less on the next - and Ayumi paying stuff out of her own pocket to realize her artistic ideas.

Compare GREEN/Days(super expensive) and NEXT LEVEL(relatively cheap, not low-budget, but probably not very expensive) for example. I think they counted on Days/GREEN to help sell NEXT LEVEL, therefore spend especially much on it.
