Would Yahoo! consider making this change to the Yahoo! Answers system?

The idea: Allow members of the Yahoo! Affiliate programs to profit from the ads accompanying their questions. This would improve the quality of the questions, because users often answer the most thought-provoking questions. Pay Per Sale or Pay Per Click, it could work either way.

Those who preferred not to participate in the affiliate program could chose to be rewarded with points for a specific number of answers to their questions.

This could and would benefit everybody involved. Yahoo! would see increased profits, and users would profit, too, and everybody would benefit from the higher quality content.
