I will answer this question as a Full-Time YouTube

I'll answer this question as a Full-Time YouTuber with it depends. The reason why many YouTubers will give you this answer is because it depends on a lot of factors:
1. Your niche and topic - advertisers will pay more money to advertise in certain categories. For example Finance advertisers will pay more because the revenue they make off a home loan is huge, compared to a cereal product that makes $5 from their product.
2. The amount of your viewers that view your ads - Things like ad block is really big these days which means your viewers may not even be watching your ads which means you don't earn income. In addition views on mobile devices don't get monetised well and until YouTube find a way to display ads gracefully, most likely you won't be getting much income from the views you get from mobile devices. Also people may skip your ads and sometimes people may not even get served ads because YouTube values user engagement and would prefer them to not abandon your video before watching.
3. The amount of views you actually get - I say this because the number of subscribers have nothing to do with how much you get paid, since you get paid per impression and views, you can have people with little subscribers have highly viewed material and people with a lot of subscribes get nowhere near the amount of views you would expect from that many subs. This is all to do with how sticky your content is, the topic and the consistency of your content. For example, some tutorials like making a TV entertainment unit may attract a lot of views but not subscribers because after you make one, when are you likely to make it again? Or any other furniture for that matter. That YouTuber will be getting views because they have helpful content but may not be the type of content you would tune in for every week. Conversely you may have a Vlogger where people will tune in because they love the YouTuber and will subscribe to that channel for that reason and will watch regularly.
I hope this answers your question, please see my blog for more info such as a full list of ways a YouTuber can make money.

Well I won't say that I'm a professional YouTuber & I mind that because I not even made minimum 100 videos on YouTube but those 100 videos taught me alot about youTube alogorithm,

YouTube algorithm is the only strict & well maintainted system till now i saw on the internet, yes thats true & if we talk about present 2015 YouTube T&S then its not pretty easy to rank any YouTube video & earn huge

They way YouTube has its policies & Laws they maintain it in that way , its not like "Speaking a like & doing anothe like" what YouTube says they do in the means of copyrights & Rankings.

Well sorry I just moved slighly to another topic in flow, lolzz 

As you asked that how much a YouTuber with 1M subscribers earn a year, you can't say that if a person having a huge number of subscribers can earn huge, it depends on the Video, how he represented, & how the video quality & the way of making is.

So as i will clear your doubt 

The earning of YouTube Videos are calculated in such manner

When an ad successfully appears to a viewer on YouTube content, that is called an impression. There can be multiple ad impressions per playback, or just one.
  • CPM (Cost-per-mille): the estimate for how much an advertiser paid per thousand impressions.
  • Estimated Monetized Playbacks: The estimated number of times a viewer watches the video (i.e., a “view”) and is shown at least one ad impression, or when the viewer quits watching during the pre-roll ad without ever reaching the video (i.e., an “abandonment”).
  • Gross revenue: The estimated total amount of money the video made from ads before it's split between Video owner and revenue-sharing partners (i.e., YouTube and other YouTube partners).
These three measurements can be used to measure and evaluate how different ad types perform over time relative to one another.

They can also be used in conjunction with the Estimated Earnings report to calculate the earnings and measure the RPM (revenue-per-mille), or how much money earn per thousand impressions on an ad.

To determine the RPM, take the estimated earnings and divide by the number of impressions (found in the “compare metric” menu), then multiply by one thousand. When dividing, be sure you are using estimated earnings and number of impressions from the same period of time. Remember, the number of impressions may differ from the number of monetized playbacks because multiple ads can appear with a single video, and a unique impression is counted for each ad shown on the video overall.

So its now clear to you that you can't perfectly say what is the earning of the YouTube with a count of views & subscribers.

That's pretty difficult to say. Because how much a YouTuber will earn from videos depends on various different factors like what kinds of ads are shown; how many of viewers are clicking on those ads; how many ad views the videos get and most importantly the niche of the video. 

So two different YouTubers with one million subscribers each may earn totally different. Also Google never discloses how much they pay their ad publishers. However, one million subscribers is quite much and someone should expect to earn quite well. Remember, they are NOT paid for subscribers; but only for the ad views and clicks they get on their videos.

With more subscribers, someone can expect to get more ad views and that's what increases their income from the videos. However, there are smart ways to make money with YouTube videos even with less subscribers. Read : How To Make Money From YouTube Videos?

I know one successful youtuber who revealed in one of his videos how much he makes.
he has almost 2M subscribers and gets 3M viewers for each of his videos (some reach 6M).
He pays tax on his income. After tax he makes about 2500 euros in a month. His videos are short (4 to 5 min long) and do not come out very often. Maybe one video every 3 weeks. Just looking at these numbers it may seem like huge money considering the length of the videos. But there actually is a rather big amount of work involved. You have to produce original content, content that your subscribers will love, content that potentially can be spread out and shared on social networks, funny content etc...
One other very successful youtuber who has 7M subscribers and produce similar content reveals it can take him 2 to 3 weeks to produce one video of 5min.

The (crap) media like to tell about one or 2 successful youtubers who make millions and present their story in a way that will make you think that any average guy from his living room with his computer on his laps can become a millionaire.

The truth is being a successful youtuber requires skills and talent. you have to work hard to produce good quality original content.  It is a full time job.
It is unlikely you become a millionaire tomorrow just posting random videos on youtube in your spare time.
Many answers have explained stating the money earned through ads, many of them have not considered an important factor - Adblock!
People who have adblock also view the videos and since it is common addon in many browsers the money earned through ads is greatly reduced!
Subscribers is important but views is the more important factor for how much a YouTuber makes.

Some people make a few amazing videos and quickly get a million subscribers then stop making as many videos.

The real metric is views. This is becuase your profits come from advertising and how many clicks ads on your videos make. A small portion of your viewers will click on ads or watch ads all the way through so the more views the more money.

How much? About $2- $5 per 1,000 views.

See that video with 1 million views?

They just made $2,000 - $5,000 off that video.

Total thier number of views per year, divide by 1,000 and then multiply by 2 to 5 and you got thier income.

Most smart channels branch out into selling merchandise such as t-shirts, mugs and branded sponsors for videos but advertisements are still the meat and potatoes of a Youtubers income. It is the most basic metric you can use to measure their worth. Sometimes even big channels with 1 million subscribers have flops. You will see videos on such subscribers with 10,000 to 50,000 views. It is entirely possible they didn't even make as much money on that video as it cost in time and resources to make. This is why many people that do this as a job produce 20 or more videos a week, some will nail it others won't.
