You forgot the zero in front of "7th Expansion." The correct doujin circle name is "07th Expansion," taken from Ryukishi07.

Considering how he made the story and the characters, royalties will all go to him. That includes royalties from figurines, artbooks, anime DVDs (for original concept and original character designs), upcoming PS2 game, manga sales, basically anything with the Higurashi no Naku Koroni tag on it, he'll receive a percentage.

And that's not including the sales he has received for selling +100,000 copies of his doujin game that sells for around 1000 yen. Simple math will yield 100,000,000 yen (~USD $900,000).
