I know that everyone, including CCP, says that the cost of what you destroy has a big impact on the isk you get at the end of the match; but from my observation, it has very little impact on how much isk you make. From what I see the WP's you have compared to the other people on your team has the biggest impact on how much you earn. I was in a match earlier and went 55/2 with 2980 WP's against a team that had quite a few people on it using non-faction proto. I had almost 1k more WP's than the next two people below me combined, there was a 3rd person with over 1k WP's; below him there was 2 people with over 500 WP's and 8 below.
Normally I would have made in the general neighborhood of 350k for that match but I actually made closer to 250k that match. Why? Because the guy repping me made 4245 WP's (he threw out ammo and killed 7 clones as well). I didn't think to ask how much he made that match as we exchanged gg's but last time I made over 4k wp's with such disparity of WP's for the rest of the team I made over 400k ISK and that was just from shooting an ADS that couldn't take a hint and I never did kill it.
So quite frankly I don't believe that isk destroyed translates into isk gained all that much, if at all.

Pre-1.7 I made 500-700k+ ISK almost every match when enemies pulled out a couple of tanks and I took them out with my own tank and I might not have even been at the top of the leaderboard. In 1.7 I took out 13 tanks in my first match and I made it to the top of the leaderboard, I got less than 300k... ISK destroyed has the biggest impact on ISK gained for all people in that match, it is divided between everyone participating, biggest payouts go to the winning team and their top 3 players. As far as I've noticed.
It doesn't matter what you personally destroy, it matters what gets destroyed in match.
Well, that's got me a bit stumped because it doesn't line up at all with what I've seen. Hell, back when I was in ToP during the whole district locking craze I'd get 10mil ISK at the end of the match just from hacking a SD back and forth. We never destroyed anything, just rushed to the closest supply depot between the two of us that wasn't too far from an objective and see how much WP's we could rack up from hacking it (my best is ~11k in a semi-speed hacking suit).
Regardless, the OP seems to have been under the assumption that the ISK he destroys directly relates to the ISK he gets which both of us pointed out, isn't the case.

The misunderstanding is probably my fault. I'd hazard a guess that if ISK destroyed does actually have an impact on the pool of ISK available to the team that Aur gear would at most grant it's ISK's equivalent of ISK; but it seems more likely to me it wouldn't grant any ISK because it isn't actually worth any ISK. And I'd guess the FW gear would only grant the ISK it costs to get from the loyalty store.
