There was some talk some time ago about the different fees, sail buttons etc. Now that ILCA released a couple of "financial" articles, might as well list the actual numbers here (emphases mostly mine):
Membership fees – ... For the last few years this had been US$10.34 per member but for 2020 this has been reduced to US$9 per member.
Sail Button fees – ... The current sail button fees are US$13.14 for a Radial or 4.7 sail and US$28.87 for a MKII Standard sail. The additional fee for the MKII sail is to recoup expenses related to obtaining international patent rights for the sail.
Plaque Fees – Every new class hull sold has a World Sailing Plaque fitted, which carries a total fee of US$118.25. This fee is split between World Sailing ($19.70) ILCA ($83.55) and the ILCA Regions ($15.00).

Interesting to see the "new" fees, too, which the builders will pay to ILCA on these pieces of equipment:
But the real bomb (well, sort of) is in the footnote, which actually belongs to another thread
Very interesting, too, that PSA and PSJ are now named "legacy" builders, and as a compensation for the loss of their regional monopolies, they will de facto pay only half of the above fees, and will actually receive half of the new builders' fees (if I understood it right)
