About 50% of it goes to Taxes, 40% goes to living and development costs, and the final 1 - 10% goes to Notch, or now, his employees.
Development costs for minecraft?
You've got it a bit wrong.
roughly 5% of that is used for living, unless he enjoys a lavish lifestyle.
I have no idea how much he pays his employees but I am fairly certain he gets at least a 25% share of the revenue.

Time waits for none at all

It may fly or even vanish
But none will seem more lavished
Than time lost to all.
