Premier League champions Chelsea were paid close to £100million through the distribution of broadcast and commercial rights money in 2014-15.
The Stamford Bridge club received a total of £98,999,554, made up of the overseas television and central commercial rights, as well as merit payments, facility fees and the equal share of £21,968, 793 handed out to all clubs.
The other clubs to finish in the top four - Manchester City, Arsenal and Manchester United - also received in excess of £95m while sixth-placed Liverpool earned a £92m payment.
Chelsea received £24,897,960 as a merit payment for finishing top of the league while, by contrast, bottom side QPR were paid £1,244,898.
QPR's total received stood at more than £64m, while the fall of fellow relegated sides Burnley and Hull City will be broken somewhat by respective £65m and £66m windfalls.
In total, the 20 Premier League clubs were given £1.605billion by a ratio of 1.53:1 between the top and bottom clubs, the most equitable distribution across European football's major leagues.
