My opinion is that it would have to be fairly complete and well thought out and well documented for Mathworks to be interested. It would also have to address a market niche that Mathworks is targeting. Information on Mathworks' strategic marketing plans is, as far as I know, not made public.

You would probably have more success selling your application yourself. Mathworks is (generally) willing to add listings for third-party applications to its directory.

thanks for the answer,

but is there anyone who has actually sold anything to mathwork, how, when and what?

I believe Mathworks has in the past acquired some entire companies in order to get technology it was interested in.

I am not very familiar with the origins of the various toolboxes.

If I understand correctly, there is a regular over in the Newsgroup who worked with Mathworks on some of the key sparse mathematics routines; http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/authors/908 . I do not recall him ever talking about the financial arrangements. Note: his work was not a toolbox.
