Obviously you will get more merchandising (assuming team stuff is sold only at the stadium) if you have more fans in the seats, so the higher those fan and market numbers, the higher the attendance and therefore the higher merchandising revenue received.

merchandising in prior versions have been junk too.
its not the factors you mentioned. my market size is a 9 with a fan loyalty of 75 and #3 in the league (out of 20) in attendance averaging in the high thirties.
the only reason i ask is i'm second to last in merchandising with a 50 to 1 ratio with the top team.
i bet its tied to
original market size. i created the teams and then based on cities and such i edited each team's market size, fan loyalty, etc. the current #1 merchandiser averages in the low teens in attendance but is a HUGE market and i did not adjust this.
