ISPs sell (lease) a "virtual product" called an IP address for $10 to $15 per month.

ARIN should get one month's revenue on an annual basis.

ICANN should get one month's revenue on an annual basis. ====

A /8 is 16,777,216 such products. At an average of $12.50 per month, that is $209,715,200 from the ISP to ARIN each year.

ARIN can then pay ICANN $1,7476,267 *each year* for EACH /8.
