The easiest way to do this is the most annoying, but the safest. I will actually set the payroll for each club, as well as the auto payroll for each club. This way it stays the same every year for all the clubs or however you wanna do it and you can ensure they have what they need to spend.
The best way to "spread" money around the league is to 1) set the national TV contract to equal whatever the league salary cap is and then to 2) set the cash max at half that amount. That way, teams will always end up with some kind of surplus on their end of the year expenses and then the money will flow to the rest of the league to ensure nobody ends up in the red after revenue sharing is doled out.
I haven't had great success futzing with the luxury tax, mostly because teams don't always spend like humans would. For me the easiest ways are 1) setting the budgets and barring that 2) ensuring there's surplus cash floating around the league.
