Being located in New York City certainly helps, but historically the Yankees have made some fantastic business decisons over the years. Steinbrenner bought the team for $10 million from CBS in 1973. The team is now valued at 1.2 billion dollars.

The Yankees generate more income than any other sports franchise in America. Here are the figures for 2006:

REVENUE:
Ticket sales = $117 million (4.178 million tickets @ $28 avg)
YES Network TV/radio rights = $60 million
Major League TV and licensing = $30 million
Concessions = $10 million
Sponsorships and advertising = $30 million
Premium seating = $27 million
Local radio = $13 million
Catering = $5 million
Other = $10 million

TOTAL = $302 million

OPERATING COSTS:
Player salaries = $195 million
Major League revenue-sharing fees = $70 million
Major League luxury tax = $25 million
Stadium operations = $20 million
Travel and training = $20 million

TOTAL = $330 million

2006 TOTAL = $28 million loss

HOW IT WORKS:
Yankees management plays two games. The first is the day-to-day running of the team. Fifty-one thousand fans pay an average of $28 to come to 81 home games, where they suck down sodas and hot dogs for $4.50 each, generating half the team’s sales. The other half comes from $140 million in ad deals and media rights. The largest expense is player costs, which run about $200 million a year, and then there’s league revenue sharing and the costs of flying the team around the country. But eking out a marginal profit on operations is hardly the aim. The bigger game they’re playing is maximizing the value of the team itself. No need to worry about last year’s $28 million loss, when its value rose $200 million, to $1.2 billion. “Like a piece of property in New York City, it’s really not an annual profit-and-loss-based business,” says Joseph Perello, former vice-president of business development. The Yankees—read Steinbrenner—also own more than a third of the YES network, which broadcasts Yankees games to 8.7 million subscribers. The network’s revenues top a quarter billion and its profit margin is 60 percent. Though a completely separate business from the Yankees, YES’s value is directly tied to how much interest people have in the team, making a $200 million payroll a very easy decision.

By purchasing a related business - a cable network like YES - they rake in ever more profits. A very smart move by Steinbrenner and staff.

They also run a tight ship - the Yankees staff is a mere 200 in New York, including the players and the Staten Island farm team. Most stadium staffers are contracted out.

More good news: The Yankees will get a break on their revenue sharing bill when they open their $800 million team-financed new stadium in 2009. Teams can deduct stadium operations expenses including construction costs from the revenues eligible to be shared with low revenue teams.

They are called the "Evil Empire" by other clubs (usually Boston) but they are the model franchise that all other MLB teams should copy.
