It doesn't make any difference if authors get an advance unless of course they don't sell enough books to pay back the loan. The advance isn't a gift in addition to the royalties it's just a loan against future sales and it comes out of their royalties until it is all paid back. So for counting total income it doesn't matter if they get an advance or not. The only thing that matters is how many books they sell and what they got for them.
