CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

THESIS ABSTRACT This study investigated the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX/S&P) and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) indexes companies from 2005 to 2010. The quantitative research method was selected for this research study. The two hundred and forty companies were selected from a stratified sampling method. Thirty-six statistical models were developed for this research study. The research question for this research study was: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, is there a relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. The results found that among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, there was a relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm performance, firm size, and CEO power, except for the relationships between, CEO bonus and firm size in NYSE medium sized companies, CEO bonus and firm performance in NYSE large sized companies, and CEO Bonus and CEO power in NYSE medium sized companies. The correlations between sub variables of CEO cash compensation, firm size, and firm performance were found to be ranged from weak negative to good positive ratios, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. The correlations between sub variables of CEO cash compensation and CEO power were found to range from moderate negative to good positive ratios, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. 3 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

CHAPTER ONE - INTRODUCTION 1.1 CEO COMPENSATION HISTORY The compensation of CEOs continues to attract the interest of shareholders, academics, media, and the general public. It is believed that the recent growth in CEO pay, against the backdrop of corporate scandals and governance failures that plagued corporations around the world, has put executive compensation at the center of the debate on corporate governance. Historically, according to Saks and Frydman (2010), the compensation trend is remarkably flat from the late 1940s to the 1970s, indicating a weak relationship between pay and aggregate firm growth. The level of pay and the use of stock options are lower from the 1950s to the 1970s than they are in more recent years, despite corporate governance does not appear to have been stronger in the past (Saks and Frydman, 2010). That is, the composition of executive compensation also changed considerably since the 1950s, as both stock options and other forms of incentive pay became larger shares of total compensation over time. In addition, they find that the growth in executive pay cannot be explained by changes in board characteristics, the rise of shareholders who own large blocks of stock, or the decline in family owned firms. In contrast, the correlation is much stronger from 1970 to 2000. That is, after a sharp decline during WWII, the level of pay increased slowly from the mid-1940s to the mid-1970s and then rose at an increasing rate from the 1970s to the 11 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

present. Murphy (1999) finds that the compensation paid to CEOs of large publicly traded corporations rose dramatically during the 1980s and 1990s, which prompted an investigation of the underlying factors that determine managerial pay. Evans and Hefner (2008) states that, from a compensation growth perspective, the nineties were a great time to be a top executive in a large U.S. company (Evans and Hefner, 2008). The median total compensation of CEOs nearly tripled from $2.3 million in 1992 to over $6.5 million in 2000 in the S&P 500 Industrials. The primary driver of this remuneration spike was the dramatic growth in stock options that grew from 27 percent to 51 percent of total compensation. Bebchuk and Fried (2003, 2004) believed that the rise in CEO pay and the expanded use of stock options have been linked to managers’ ability to extract rent (compensation) from the firm. They stated that:

“Firstly, seeking to make pay more sensitive to performance, regulators and shareholders encouraged the use of equity-based compensation. Taking advantage of this enthusiasm, executives used their influence to obtain substantial option pay without giving up corresponding amounts of their cash compensation; furthermore, the options they received did not link pay tightly to the managers’ own performance but rather enabled managers to reap windfalls from that part of the stock price increase due solely to market and sector trends beyond their control; as a result, managers were able to capture much larger gains than more cost-effective and efficient plans would have provided. 12 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Secondly, because executive compensation has historically been correlated with market capitalization, the rising stock markets of the 1990s, which carried along with them even many poorly performing companies, provided a convenient justification at most firms for substantial pay increases. Thirdly, market booms weaken outrage constraints; exuberant shareholders are less likely to scrutinize and resent generous pay arrangements, in the same way that the recent market declines has made shareholders more prone to do so”.

Bebchuk and Grinstein (2005) reports that, between 1993-2003, the average total CEO compensation for S&P500 firms increased by 166 percent, of which only 66 percent is explained by an increase in firm size measured by sales and performance measured by return on assets with the rest remaining unexplained.1 According to Murphy (2002), the executive pay increases resulted not from changes in managerial power but rather from other factors. Perhaps, other rationales for CEO pay increase is linked to a risk-based CEO compensation structure, the information technology revolution and skilled-biased technical change, improvements in board diligence, enhanced disclosure of financial

1 According to Forbes (“Big paychecks”, March 5, 2007), the collective total CEO pay for the largest 500 firms in the US increased by 38 percent during 2005-2006. During the same period, the S&P500 index rose by 15.79 percent. Numerous articles in the media report high-profile cases of ‘excessive’ CEO pay despite mediocre firm performance such as: The Economist (November 24, 2005), “Too many turkeys”; The Economist (January 18, 2007), “Power pay”; Fortune (June 30, 2006), “The real CEO pay problem”; The New York Times (January 4, 2007), “An ousted chief’s going-away pay is seen by many as typically excessive”.

information to compensate executives for the disutility of stronger monitoring, and changes in social norms, perhaps the increase in CEO pay in recent decades. According to Harris (2008), some CEOs profited greatly even as their firms and stakeholders suffered financial downturns. In some instances, the board of directors adjusted performance targets to make meeting benchmark standards much easier to achieve. There are a number of examples of companies in 2008 that did not tie its CEO pay levels close to adding to shareholder value. For example, Warner Music Group paid its CEO Edgar Bronfman a $3 million bonus for an operating year in which the company experienced a $56 million loss and its share price fell by 25%. The rationale for the bonus payout was management outperformed the industry and the firm wanted to reward strong operating performance in a historically challenging industry environment. Similarly, Varian Semiconductor CEO Gary Dickerson received over $1 million in incentive pay despite a 53% stock price decline and a 31% drop in net income, rationales provided were management team exceeded target market share and new business expansion. 1.1.1 CEO vs. Average Worker Pay History In the past several decades, the difference between the compensation of corporate chief executives and the pay earned by the average employee has increased dramatically. In 1960, the average chief executive earned 40 times as much as the average worker. By 1990, the average CEO earned 107 times as much. In the following 14 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

decade, this ratio rose to 525:1 before settling back to 301:1 in 2003.2 In a paper published by the Economic Policy Institute, a think-tank, calculates that chief executives at the America's 350 biggest companies are paid 2313 times as much as the average private-sector worker in 2011 (figure 4 below). This ratio, which includes the value of share options, has begun to rise again after falling during the recession, considering wages in the United States have been flat for years while CEO pay has risen substantially. Using a measure of CEO compensation that includes the value of stock options granted to an executive, the CEO-to-worker compensation ratio was 18.3-to-1 in 1965, peaked at 411.3-to-1 in 2000, and reached to 209.4-to-1 in 2011 (figure 4 and 5 below). Using an alternative measure of CEO compensation that includes the value of stock options exercised in a given year, CEOs earned 20.1 times more than average workers in 1965, 383.4 times more in 2000, and 231.0 times more in 2011 (figure 4 and 5 below). The fall in the stock market after the year 2000 reduced CEO stock options and caused CEO compensation to tumble until 2002 and 2003. The CEO compensation recovered to a level of 351.7 times worker pay by 2007. The CEO-to-worker compensation ratio based on options-granted, however, increased only to 244.1-to-1 in 2007. The financial crisis in 2008 and accompanying stock market decline reduced CEO compensation after 2007–2008, and the CEO-to-worker compensation ratio fell in tandem. By 2011, the stock market has recovered from the losses incurred during the 2

financial crisis. The CEO compensation grew 78.7 percent between 1965 and 1978, three times the growth of the compensation of private-sector workers. The CEO compensation grew strongly over the 1980s but exploded in the 1990s and peaked in 2000 at a growth of 1,390 percent, from 1978. This growth in CEO compensation far exceeded the stock market value over the 1980s and 1990s. Overall, CEOs have received far better compensation than typical worker, stock market, or the U.S. economy over the last several decades.

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Similarly, in Figure 3 below, five companies with the highest CEO/worker pay ratio compared with the S&P average and the 1965 average among the 350 largest companies, the average multiple of CEO compensation to that of rank-and-file workers is 204 times. The top five CEO compensation has far exceeded both the average worker and average S&P 500 companies compensation, ranged from 1175 to 1800 times. Bebchuk and Grinstein (2005) explained this increased CEO pay trend to changes in firm size, performance, and industry classification. From 1978–2011, CEO compensation grew more than 725 percent4, substantially more than the stock market and remarkably more than worker compensation, at a meager 5.7 percent. According to Bebchuk and Grinstein (2005), among S&P 500 firms, average CEO compensation climbed from $3.7 million in 1993 to $9.1 million in 2003 (an increase of 146%), and average compensation to top-five executives increased from $9.5 million in 1993 to $21.4 million in 2003 (an increase of 125%). “Between 1993 and 2003, firm size increased considerably. The average size of the S&P 500 firms, as measured by sales, increased by 40% (inflation-adjusted) from 1993-1995 to 2001-2003. During the same period, the average size of the Mid-Cap 400 firms increased by 30% and the average size of the Small-Cap 600 firms increased by 51%. Furthermore, during the considered period, the incidence of new economy firms, where compensation has been somewhat

higher, has increased. These changes in size and industry classification might account for some of the growth in compensation figures.

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Himmelberg and Hubbard (2000) and Hubbard (2005) suggest that, during a period of market booms, the demand for executives goes up and firms need to pay more in order to retain and hire executives. In addition, the hiring of CEOs from outside the firm has increased which strengthened executive bargaining positions. Spatt (2004) suggests that the bull market increased the wealth of executives, which in turn increased their reservation wage by increasing the monetary amount needed to induce executives to work. Bebchuk and Fried (2004) argues that outsiders’ enthusiasm for incentive-based compensation provided executives and directors with opportunities to raise pay levels substantially in ways that would appear acceptable to outsiders. Murphy and Zabojnik (2004) links the increase in CEO pay to the increase in CEO turnover. 1.1.2 CEO Compensation and Social Issue Institutional shareholders, politicians, and the public have blamed boards that executives are paid too much, and that the current incentive-pay schemes are flawed because the connection between executive pay and company performance is mixed at best, and at worst, has led to a series of dysfunctional behaviors. They believed that executive compensation should be based on pay for performance against sectorspecific environmental, social and governance criteria, as well as financial performance indicators. The solutions offered for the problems of excessive levels of executive pay and the need to strengthen the link between pay and performance often solution to: strengthen the independence of directors and compensation committees; increase the 20 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

shareholders’ rights to elect directors and to express their views on compensation plans, to discourage manipulation of CEO compensation and align incentives more closely with the aims of the owners. It is believed that these problems can be solved with an effective compensation structure or improved techniques to link CEO pay to stock performance. A recent McKinsey survey commissioned by the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance found that an overwhelming majority of directors and investors wished to see factors such as sustainable development and customer satisfaction considered in setting compensation, yet only a minority of Canadian companies appear to link these factors with executive compensation.

1.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE RESEARCH Over the past decade in Canada and the United States, institutional shareholders, investor groups, and the public have raised concern over the quantum of remuneration packages offered to CEOs. They are highly alarmed and surprised to learn of increased in CEO pay during period of the global credit crunch from 2007 to 2009. They believed that CEOs should strictly be paid on the basis of accounting performance and the financial position of a company. In addition, from a research point of view, most of the previous studies have used a single independent variable such as firm size, firm performance, or CEO power to understand CEO compensation as such, failed to understand CEO compensation system on a comprehensive basis. That is, to understand CEO compensation system requires combinations of multi-variables 21 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

comprised of dependent and independent variables as such, lacked focus, comprehensiveness, and discipline, to understand true determinants of CEO compensation. Overall, all of these shortcomings suggest the need to conduct new research on CEO compensation system as such, this research study will try to understand the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies from 2005 to 2010. In addition, this research study results will be used to perform comparative analysis between TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, so as to better understand their respective CEO cash compensation systems.

1.3 CEO COMPENSATION PROBLEMS/ISSUES The CEO compensation system has been greatly misunderstood by the public for some time but it has been emerged as a concern during the period of the global credit crunch from 2007 to 2009. The general social ethical belief is that CEOs should be rewarded based on accounting performance and should be penalized if companies perform below market expectations. This belief resulted in numerous single studies conducted in the United States and United Kingdom, yet these studies have failed to arrive at robust conclusions on the relationship between CEO pay and performance. Gomez-Mejia and Barkema (1998) admitted that after six decades of research, the failure to identify a robust relationship between executive compensation and firm performance has led scholars into a blind alley. A factor analysis conducted by Tosi, Werner, Katz and 22 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Gomez-Mejia (1998) finds that less than 5 percent of CEO pay is explained by performance factors. Dyl (1998) stated that there is a downside hedge of a CEO’s pay in management controlled firms, given that it is more strongly related to firm size, not firm performance. Williams (1985) believed that executives themselves set their pay using outside consultants to legitimize compensation package therefore transparency is minimized within decision making system. Jensen and Murphy (1990) and Hubbard and Palia (1995) favored performance to be measured by shareholder value. On the other hand, Nyberg, Fulmer, Gerhart and Carpenter (2010) measured firm performance using net income, return on equity, and return on assets. The great scholars in the field of executive compensation such as, Gomez-Mejia, Eugene F. Fama, Michael Jensen, and Kevin Murphy have expressed concerns: why are robust conclusions not achieved; why these studies have arrived at divergent or inconsistent results; and why it has failed to establish defining factors that influenced CEO compensation system. Tosi et al. (2000) have blamed these concerns to different methods of collection, different statistical techniques, different samples, different moderator variables, and differences in how constructs of interest have been used in various studies. As such, these reasons have hampered to reach definite and consistent conclusions among previous studies. In addition, CEO cash compensation has rarely been studied as a separate study despite it is believed to be a strong proxy towards determining CEO total compensation. That is, CEO cash compensation which includes salary and bonus is sufficient to represent CEO total compensation which comprised of salary, bonus, stock options, pensions, 23 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

and other long-term benefits. Agarwal (1981), Finkelstein & Boyd (1998), and Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989,1996) concluded that simple measures of cash compensation are an excellent proxy for CEO total pay. Similarly, Mehran (1992) reported that CEOs took 67% of total pay in the form of salary and a bonus and 22% in the form of equity based incentives.

The literature indicated that most of previous studies have focused on the industry segment for sampling, thus biasing the results. In addition, sample sizes have ranged from fifty to eight hundred therefore the results are inconsistent. From a firm size perspective, previous studies have used either total revenues, total assets, or total number of employees as a proxy for firm size as such the results are also inconsistent. From a firm performance perspective, previous studies have used either return on equity, return on assets, earnings per share, cash flow per share, or market value per share as a proxy for firm performance as such the results are also inconsistent. From a CEO power perspective, previous studies have used either CEO age, CEO tenure, or CEO duality role as a proxy for CEO power as such the results are also inconsistent. From a timing perspective, previous studies have ranged from one to ten year period as such has affected the quality and consistency of statistical results. Overall, previous studies have failed to understand the CEO compensation system either due to: the few variables used in their studies; the focus on a distinct population segment; or the use of different statistical methodologies. 24 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

1.4 PURPOSE OF THE RESEARCH The purpose of this research is to investigate in clear terms the extent and nature of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies from 2005 to 2010. To educate shareholders, investors, and the public on determinants of CEO cash compensation. That is, compensation factors that involved in rewarding CEOs with salaries and bonuses. In addition, contribute in the field of executive compensation literature with recent findings.

1.5 METHODOLOGY AND METHODS This research requires a process of deductive reasoning by use of measurement tools to collect, count, and classify data. It demands a high level of objectivity and impartiality in processing and assessments, to achieve clear conclusions. In addition, it requires the use of statistical calculations to understand the nature and extent of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. As such, quantitative research method will be adopted for this research study. According to Cormack (1991), quantitative research methodology tests deductive theory of existing knowledge through the development of hypothesized relationships and proposed outcomes. The process of measurement is central to quantitative research because it provides a fundamental connection between empirical observation and mathematical 25 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

expression of quantitative relationships. In addition, Creswell (2009) stated that if problem calls for identification of factors that influence an outcome, the utility of an intervention, or understanding clear outcomes, then a quantitative approach is most suitable.

Within the system of quantitative research framework, this research will select a longitudinal study method to collect six years of data from 2005 to 2010. It will select the survey method for longitudinal studies. It will select stratified sampling method to achieve equal stratum and avoid selection bias towards determining sample sizes of small, medium, and large for TSX/S&P and NYSE respective populations. Each population will be based on one hundred and twenty companies. Each sub population or firm size will consist of forty companies. The firm size will be determined on total revenues. The small size companies will be selected based on total revenues of up to five hundred million dollars. The medium size companies will be selected based on total revenues of over five hundred million to two billion dollars. The large size companies will be selected based on total revenues of over two billion dollars. These specific ranges have been created to ensure that a maximum number of companies from a diverse industry background will be available for a stratified sampling. The overall sample size of fourteen hundred and forty observations (six years times two hundred and forty companies) will be used for statistical testing, which are believed to provide strong power to produce clear and credible results. The data will be collected from financial 26 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

years ending on or after Jan. 1, 2005 to Dec. 31, 2010. To avoid a potential loss of data during the study period, companies will be sampled backward from 2010 to 2005 onwards. This approach will be taken to obtain consistent data from each company. In addition, such a sampling technique will assist a total number of firms that may fall off due to separation, merger, or acquisition. The structured questionnaire approach will be adopted to collect data on CEO cash compensation, firm size, financial performance, and CEO power. The survey will consist of fourteen questions.

Descriptive and inferential statistics approaches will be used to transform surveyed data into statistical results. The data analysis will be performed by calculating response rate, checking range and validity of data, producing summary tables, illustrating with graphs and charts, and drawing summary statistics. The statistical software package SPSS will be used for this study. The linear regression statistical method will be used to study the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. It consists of calculating mean, standard deviation, confidence interval (significance), regression (R2), analysis of variance (ANOVA), coefficients, coefficient correlation, collinearity diagnostics, residual statistics, histogram, plot of regression standardized statistics, and partial regression residual plots.

In this research study, CEO cash compensation will be used as dependent variable, firm performance and CEO power will be used as independent variables, and firm size will 27 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

be used as both independent and control variable. The sub dependent variables of CEO cash compensation will be salary and bonus. The sub independent and control variables of firm size will be total revenues and total number of employees. The sub independent variables of firm performance will be return on equity, return on assets, earnings per share, cash flow per share, net profit margin, common stocks outstanding, book value of common stocks outstanding, and market value of common stocks outstanding. The sub independent variables of CEO power will be CEO age, CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, 5% management ownership, and 5% individual/institutional ownership.

The aim and objective of this research is to show a relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. The literature on agency theory will be discussed as a framework to understand theoretical aspects of the CEO compensation system. The null hypothesis will be stated based on the assumption that CEO cash compensation is not related to firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. Conversely, alternative hypothesis will be stated on the assumption that CEO cash compensation is related to firm size, firm performance, and CEO Power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. Each research question will consist of: research hypothesis, research hypothesis statement, operational hypotheses, and an operational hypothesis statement. The operational hypothesis statement will be based 28 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

on sub variables of CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. Each statistical model will consist of one sub dependent variable of CEO cash compensation with all sub independent variables of firm size, firm performance, or CEO power. For example, CEO salary with total revenues; CEO salary with return on assets, return on equity, earnings per share, cash flow per share, net profit margin, common stocks outstanding, book value per share, and market value per share; or CEO salary with CEO age, CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, 5% individual/institutional ownership, and 5% management ownership. The total of thirty six statistical models will be developed for this research study. The 95% confidence interval will be assigned for all statistical tests. In the end, regression and correlation results will be analyzed to draw conclusions. The results of each statistical model will be presented separately in Appendix D of this research paper.

1.8 SIGNIFICANCE OF CEO COMPENSATION STUDY The CEO cash compensation topic has not been extensively researched nor has been studied on a comparative basis between Canadian and American public companies. This research study will try to educate shareholders, investors, and the public on the determinants of CEO cash compensation. That is, the compensation factors that are involved in rewarding CEOs with salaries and bonuses. It will try to understand the nature and extent of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO Power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations from 2005 to 2010. It will use firm sizes (small, medium, and large) as a control variable to study relationships and correlations between them. It will perform comparative analysis on respective CEO cash compensation systems of TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. It consists of a sample of two hundred and forty companies. It will perform thirty six statistical tests to answer three research questions. Moreover, this research will hope to contribute to the executive compensation literature by developing new theories, and publish articles and book in peer review journals.

1.9 NATURE OF STUDY This research study will be an empirical study and will consist of two hundred and forty companies from TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. Each population will consist of one hundred and twenty companies and each sub population or firm size will consist of forty 34 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

companies. This research will try to understand the nature and extent of influence of firm size, firm performance, and CEO power on CEO cash compensation, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. It will use firm size as a control variable to understand relationships and correlations between them. It will consist of three research questions. The first research question is: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, is there a relationship between CEO cash compensation and firm size?. The second research question is: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, is there a relationship between CEO cash compensation and firm performance?. The third research question is: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, is there a relationship between CEO cash compensation and CEO power?. This research will adopt a quantitative research method, longitudinal studies from 2005 to 2010, stratified sampling method to select two hundred and forty companies, survey method to collect historical data, and linear regression method to conduct statistical tests. It will develop thirty-six statistical models to answer three research questions. Each model will be tested based on respective operational hypotheses. The results will be used to accept or reject the null hypotheses of three research questions. In the end, new theories will be developed based on statistical findings. Overall, this research will follow the disciplines of objectivity, clarity, precision, and factual presentation.

1.10 LIMITATIONS AND DELIMITATIONS 1.10.1 Limitations The long term CEO compensation system which includes stock options, pensions, and other long term benefits will not be investigated. As such, this study will unable to fully explore and generalize the prevalence of pay for performance schemes in its entirety. In addition, since this research will be a macro study on TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it will unable to study on an industry basis.

1.10.2 Delimitations: This research study primary objective to understand the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power on firm size basis as such requires to adopt stratified sample method. The websites, Canadianbusiness.com and NYSE.com, will be used to obtain a sample of total of two hundred and forty companies. The data collection period will be from 2005 to 2010. The CEO cash compensation will be determined based on cash and bonus. The firm sizes will be determined based on total revenues. The firm performance will be determined based on return on equity, return on assets, earnings per share, cash flow per share, net profit margin, cash flow per share, common stocks outstanding, book value of common stocks outstanding, and market value of common stocks outstanding. The CEO power will be determined based

36 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

on CEO age, CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, 5% management ownership, and 5% individual/institutional ownership.

1.11 ASSUMPTIONS The first assumption will be that Canada and the United States currencies are at par from 2005 to 2010. The second assumption will be that inflation is assumed to be a nonfactor in evaluating firm performance and CEO pay. The third assumption will be that sampled data are normally distributed among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. The fourth assumption will be that sampled data obtain a 95 percent confidence interval. The fifth and final assumption will be that statistical results leads to either accept or reject the null hypothesis.

1.12 SUMMARY OF THE CHAPTER The CEO cash compensation topic has not been extensively researched nor has been studied on a comparative basis among Canadian and American companies. Most of the previous studies have lacked in recent research such as from 2005 to 2010. In addition, over the past decade in Canada and the United States, the public has raised concerns over bonuses declared to CEOs by companies’ board of directors. That is, CEOs should not be rewarded with bonuses if company performance is negative. As such, this research study will try to understand the nature and extent of the relationship between

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

CHAPTER TWO - LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 PURPOSE OF THE RESEARCH The purpose of this research is to understand the nature and extent of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. This chapter will describe, summarize, evaluate, and clarify previous studies on firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. The agency theory will be discussed to understand the theoretical impact of principal and agent relationship on CEO compensation.

2.2 CEO COMPENSATION THEORIES 2.2.1 CEO Compensation and Agency Problems Agency theory deals with the relationship between a principal (shareholder) and an agent (company’s CEO or managers). It tries to resolve problems arising from a conflict of goals and desires between them. It tries to resolve a problem of a principal’s inability to verify an agent’s output. It tries to resolve a problem of risk sharing which arises when a principal and an agent have different attitudes towards risk. In addition, it points towards minimizing the moral hazard problem between owners and managers by way of control. However, since the monitoring is costly, the owners’ then try to develop incentive contracts to align their interest with those of employee managers. According to Jensen & Meckling (1976), agency theory is directed at the ubiquitous agency 40 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

relationship, in which one party, the principal, delegates work to another party, the agent, who performs that work. Thus, it attempts to describe this relationship using the metaphor of a contract.

The compensation plans are a form of contract designed to link the goals of shareholders with those of the CEO or other key executives. According to agency theory, compensation plans should be designed so that managers have sufficient incentives to make decisions that maximize shareholder wealth and thus, reduce manager shareholder agency problem. Watts and Zimmerman (1978) pointed out that CEO compensation contract may be viewed as an important means of resolving this conflict, in particular, compensation plans may be designed to maximize shareholder returns by tying pay to performance. However, Dalton, Hitt, Certo and Dalton (2007) argued that there is a potential for managerial mischief when the interests of the firms’ owners (principals) and managers (agents) diverge. This is explained in the earlier study conducted by Jensen and Meckling (1976), who believed that the conflict between them may arise because the shareholders’ primary goal is to receive maximum returns for their investments, while managers may have a wider set of preferences. According to Eisenhardt (1989), CEO compensation is influenced by agency theory in the form of governance structure whereby a weaker governance structure leads to relatively greater CEO compensation. That is, it is believed that CEO will act on his best interest by adopting a maximum power approach through controlling board and taking advantage 41 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

of operational expertise then rely on the firm’s performance. Similarly, Pratt and Zeckhauser (1985) argued that because agents control organizational resources and are likely to know more about the tasks that they perform for the principal, information asymmetry that exists could give advantage to agents. On the other hand, the principal usually wishes to counter this asymmetry and seeks to devise ways to prevent agents from making decisions to divert resources away from the principal’s interests. This is supported by Jensen (1983), who believed that principals define the rule of the game for senior management team including a system for monitoring and reward structure which includes the degree to which managerial incentives are aligned with the interests of the owners. Jensen and Meckling (1976), Fama (1980), and Hart (1983) believed that agency problems are controlled by the market for corporate control, managerial labor market, and product market control.

Finkelstein and Boyd (1989) argued that the balance of power between the board and CEO is a major determinant of CEO compensation. This is explained by Core, Holthausen and Larcker (1999), who believed that weaker governance structures have greater agency problems, CEOs at firms with greater agency problems receive greater compensation, and firms with greater agency problems perform worse. This is supported by Bebchuk and Fried (2005), who stated that executive compensation is consistent with executives who control their own boards and maximize their own compensation subject to an outrage constraint. Similarly, Weisbash (2007) stated that 42 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

contracts that are negotiated between CEO and board are not likely to be those that maximize shareholder profits subject to the usual constraints in principal agent problems; rather contracts are likely to reflect optimal rent grabbing by the CEO. Thus, focus of agency theory is on determining the most efficient contract governing principal agent relationship. 2.2.2 CEO Compensation and Agency Contracting The theoretical work on agency contract (e.g. Demski & Feltham, 1978; Harris & Raviv, 1979; and Shavell, 1979) indicated that when agent efforts are not observed by principal and information asymmetries are high, the principal has little option but to transfer risk to the agent by basing agreement on observed performance outcomes. Thus, in the absence of good information about activities or behaviors of the agent, incentive alignment is a most viable control mechanism to reduce agency costs because it engenders self-monitoring on the part of the executive (Conlon & Parks, 1990; Eccles, 1985; Eisenhardt, 1985, 1988; Fernie & Metcalf, 1986; Gomez-Mejia, 1997; Welbourne, Balkin & Gomez-Mejia, 1995). Eisenhardt (1989) stated that focus of principal agent literature was on determining optimal contract, behavior versus outcome between principal and agent. In addition, he believed that when outcome uncertainty is low, costs of shifting risk to the agent is also low and thus, outcome based contracts become attractive. This is supported by Bloom and Milkovich (1998), who believed that outcome based compensation contracts solve the agency problem even though the contract is 43 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

not an ideal solution because a pay for performance linkage necessarily transfer some risks onto a risk-averse agent. Similarly, he also believed that, as uncertainty increases, the outcome based contracts became increasingly expensive to shift risk to the agent, despite motivational benefits of it. This is further supported by Jensen and Murphy (1990), who believed that optimal compensation contracts are to provide better risk sharing without reducing incentives or to provide better incentives without increasing risk exposure. In addition, they also believed that optimum contracting arrangements may offer large amounts of compensation for executives to enhance shareholder value. On the other hand, Holmstrom (1979) believed that optimal compensation contracts for risk averse CEOs are based not only on principal objective (i.e., change in shareholder wealth) but also on any variable which provide incremental information valuable in assessing the CEO’s unobservable choice of action. Similarly, Jensen and Murphy (1989) finds that there are inconsistencies towards formal agency models of optimal contracting. That is, the empirical relationship between pay of top level executives and firm performance, while positive and statistically significant, is small for an occupation where incentive pay is expected to play an important role. This is supported by Tosi, Werner, Katz and Gomez-Mejia (2000), who believed that optimal contracting may not be realized due to the methodology used in performance measurement doesn’t properly measure the performance construct on which agency contract is based. In addition, they stated that the board of directors might well turn to performance measures that include objective indicators as well as judgmental, clinical, and subjective assessments that are 44 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

related to the job. Such criteria are more likely to represent a holistic and comprehensive assessment of executive performance. Thus, the objective performance measures find in executive compensation literature may be deficient for evaluation purposes by those responsible for corporate governance, which in turn then use a subjective evaluation process to assess the executive’s contributions. This is further supported by Mirrlees (1976), Holmstrom (1979), Lazear and Rosen (1981), Grossman and Hart (1983), Lambert (1983), and Murphy (1986), who stated that agency costs are minimized when CEO compensation is related to firm performance of other types of information regarding actions taken by executives. 2.2.3 CEO Compensation and Agency Theory According to Tosi and Gomez-Mejia (1989), who believed that agent will attempt to minimize risks and transfer all costs of uncertainty to principal. Harris and Raviv (1979) argued that the agents (managers) will prefer a weak monitoring system so to create lower risk situations for his compensation. This can be achieved by way of decoupling of pay from performance through organizational policies and practices such as, widely dispersed equity holdings and managerial control over the board of the directors. This then leads to managers designing a compensation structure in which they minimize the risks. In addition, this will permit them to choose courses of action that are in their selfinterest, even if they conflict with the welfare of the owners (Demski, Patell and Wolfson, 1984). Seville (1979) believed that there are potential gains to monitoring, except in the 45 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

unlikely situation in which the agent’s actions cannot have negative consequences for the owner. Holmstrom (1979) believed that while perfect monitoring may be impossible or too expensive, imperfect information can be used to alleviate the moral hazard by penalizing the agent’s dysfunctional behavior. Herman (1981) believed that there is more monitoring and incentive alignment in owner controlled firms than in management controlled firms. The board will represent the owner’s interests because owners will be more influential in the selection of board members. In the management- controlled firms, the board appointments will be controlled by management, and the members will serve at its discretion. In addition, he also believed that if monitoring and incentive alignment increase CEO compensation risk, then there must be a shift in the balance of power from agent to principal. Thus, the level of monitoring and incentive alignment should be inversely related to CEO pay. However, Dalton et al. (2007) argued that evidence regarding chief executive officer (CEO) compensation as a monitoring mechanism remains unsettled. 2.2.4 CEO Compensation and Agency Theory and Risk Harris and Raviv (1979) argued that managers will want their compensation structured so that they minimize personal risk. This is supported by Jensen and Meckling (1976), who argued that in order to reduce their compensation risk, managers may engage in activities which reduce the firm’s risk such as by undertaking low risk projects, which in turn adversely affect shareholders’ wealth. On the other hand, shareholders would like 46 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

to reduce their investment risk by holding a diversified portfolio. Such conflicting strategies of both parties lead to compromising agreement in the form of agency contract whereby the principal and agent established unified organizational goals and compensation mechanism. Similarly, Jensen and Murphy (1990) believed that “managerial decisions designed to strengthen organizations often meet with opposition from colleagues, employees... providing managers with incentives to compromise their decisions.”

Lewellen et al. (1987) believed that compensation packages are designed such that agency costs are reduced. In addition, they believed that compensation contract is aimed at controlling risk exposure and limiting agency problems. Furthermore, executives in the management controlled firms can reduce their risk and force owners to bear more because they have greater control over organizational decision processes. Jensen and Meckling (1976) and Lambert and Larker (1984a) argued that CEOs are risk avoiders who prefer not to jeopardize their tenures. In addition, they argued that managerial preferences and actions are aligned in such a way that agency costs are reduced. According to Holmstrom (1979), Garen (1994), Bloom and Milkovich (1998), and Aggarwal and Samwick (1999), risk shifting associated with outcome based contracts often result in higher overall compensation for the agent. Similarly, Gray and Canella (1997) argued that transferring risk from principal to agent by linking a portion of the agent’s (CEO) income to firm performance, may be less effective or even 47 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

dysfunctional towards maximizing shareholder wealth. That is, the CEO’s risk bearing making it less likely that he will invest firm resources in a risk neutral manner or engage in strategies congruent with shareholders’ preferences. John and John (1993) argued that when agency costs are high, stockholders wealth sensitivity may be lower to avoid risk shifting incentives to executives. Miller, Wiseman and Gomez-Mejia (2002) argued that if the agent's performance uncertainty increases, agent has less control over outcomes as such, agents are pushed to adopt risk reduction strategies which minimize the shareholders’ interests. In addition, agent decisions become less reliable to the point of the principal cannot rely on outcome based controls as an adequate substitute. 2.2.5 CEO Compensation and Agency Theory and Equity Ownership Fame & Jensen (1983) and Jensen & Meckling (1976) believed that firms aligned owner and agent's interests through the agents’ equity ownership and structure of their compensation. This is supported by Dalton et al. (2007) who believed that the agent’s equity ownership leads to embrace shareholder interests. Nyberg, Gerhart and Carpenter (2010) defines incentive alignment as financial alignment, whereby an agent’s economic reward co-vary with those of owners through ownership structure. However they find that the relationship between financial alignment and future shareholder return is not contingent on CEO stock ownership. This finding is also supported by Tosi, Werner, Katz and Gomez-Mejia (2000) and Dalton et al. (2003), who finds that there is no relationship between CEO equity ownership and organization 48 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

performance. That is, there is little evidence to support agency theory emphasis on alignment between the financial interests of principal and agent preferences and actions through equity ownership. 2.2.6 CEO Compensation and Productivity Theory According to Shetty, Mithiun (2012), marginal productivity theory is mainly concerned with predicting the pay levels of executives. The practical implication of marginal productivity theory is that both the firm’s profitability and the executive’s relative economic contribution are pay-level determinants. He believed that executive compensation theories are made with a context of analyzing the firm’s ability to generate profits and maximize productive output. His research concluded with two propositions. Firstly, he believed that the size of the executive pay package reflects the firm’s net profits. In a firm where the entrepreneur is the sole owner and functions as chief executive officer, the entrepreneur desires to achieve the highest returns on his investments and this will occur where the marginal cost of production is equal to the market price of the product. That is, a point where the firm maximized its profits and CEO maximized his compensation. Secondly, he believed that the size of the executive pay package is proportional to the executive’s marginal revenue product. In addition, it is assumed that the executive is hired by the firm and his pay commensurate with his economic contribution. Therefore, the theory predicts a convex relationship between the compensation gap and the number of contestants competing for promotion. This is 49 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

supported by Zang and Masulis (2012), who finds that executive compensation is strongly linked to measures of senior executive productivity, and that productivity differentials among senior executives explain a large part firm compensation gaps. In addition, they believed that executives whose managerial ability is recognized by the external labor market are expected to exhibit higher productivity than executives whose abilities go unrecognized. 2.2.7 CEO Compensation and Tournament Theory ! !

The tournament theory emphasizes that job hierarchy provides incentives to employees and firms use promotions as a mechanism of rewarding strong employee performance. Rosen and Lazear (1981) treats pay as a prize in a contest. First prize in the tournament is the highest pay received by the CEO, the highest-ranking position in an organization. Setting a high prize provides incentives for the contestants to climb higher on the corporate ladder (Rosen, 1986) and indirectly increases the productivity of competitors at lower levels (Balsam, 2002). When the top price is set at a disproportionately high level it has the effect of lengthening the career ladder of high ranking managers (O’reilly, Main, and Crystal, 1988). According to Rosen (1986): “Contestants who succeed in attaining high ranks in elimination career ladders rest on their laurels in attempting to climb higher, unless top-ranking prizes are given a disproportionate weight in the purse. A large first-place prize gives

50 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

survivors something to shoot for, independent of past performances and accomplishments”.

Wade, Main, and O’Reilly (1993) finds that more competitors increases the competition gap between a CEO and lower level executives. Zang and Masulis (2012) finds that tournament theory predictions are not strengthened when include periods prior to the departure of incumbent CEOs or firms most prone to succession contests. That is, the effects of the variables capturing tournament competition, the coefficients of the tournament intensity variables are insignificantly different than levels found in estimating the remaining firms. Furthermore, the overall explanatory power of variables is much lower than that of variables measuring executive productivity in the tournament-oriented firms.

Zang and Masulis (2012) believed that the tournament effect is likely to be more pronounced in shaping executive compensation when a CEO replacement is expected due to planned retirement. Companies are mostly likely to have a well-planned CEO succession strategy and run a contest among potential candidates when the incumbent CEO is approaching mandatory retirement age. In addition, they believed that in situations where CEOs are forced to resign due to extremely bad performance, the hiring of new CEOs is less likely to depend on the result of succession contest. This is due to, firstly, the urgency associated with extremely bad firm performance, a board of 51 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

directors has little time to select a new CEO. Thus, a non-CEO officer director or the chair of the board may step in as an interim person. Secondly, bad firm performance is an indicator of a poorly performing management team, which means a board of directors would be more likely to seek an outsider as the CEO to turn around the current negative performance. Therefore, perhaps a stronger tournament effect on the compensation gap prior to a planned retirement than a forced CEO turnover due to bad performance. 2.2.8 CEO Compensation and Agency Theory and CEO Power The executive compensation is viewed as a solution to shareholders’ optimal contracting problem. That is, the CEO contract is designed by shareholders or their representatives to maximize shareholder value. In a series of articles written by Bebchuk and his co-authors (Bebchuk et al., 2002; Bebchuk and Fried, 2003, 2004) challenge this view and believed that practice of executive pay is explained better by the managerial power theory whereby CEOs effectively set their own pay by influencing the pay-setting process. That is, the managerial power theory argues that because of principal agent relations, agents are in the natural position to use their discretion to set their own pay. In addition, they believed that managerial power theory refers to the mechanism whereby the management, even with negligible share ownership, can assume effective control of the firm through the appointment of the proxy committee, which they dub management control. Finkelstein (1992) describes the various 52 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

dimensions of managerial power, of which, the ability to affect one’s own pay are one dimension of managerial power, a structural power. Therefore, the most powerful CEOs receive high pay or award themselves with few conditions. This indeed has a negative effect on the pay-performance sensitivity of CEO compensation indicating managerial power leads to worse firm performance. Fama and Jensen (1983) believed that executives are in the position to use their power to influence the board of directors to keep them in check. In contrast to the complete contracting theory, natural relationships between principals and agents and the consequent possible use of discretion are considered as real possible behavior (Grabke-Rundell and Gomez-Mejia, 2002).

According to Yin, Tian, and Chow (2008), the managerial contract is determined through bargaining between the board and the manager. They believed that, where the board has full bargaining power, the board designs a compensation contract for the manager to maximize the shareholder’s residual return subject to the manager’s incentive compatibility, individual rationality, and limited liability constraints. On the other hand, where the manager has full bargaining power, the manager designs his own compensation contract to maximize his expected utility subject to the shareholder’s individual rationality constraint, his own limited liability and incentive compatibility constraints. The solution to a general bargaining problem lies between these two scenarios, varying continuously in some proxy of the manager’s bargaining power. In addition, they believed that when the manager designs a compensation contract for 53 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

himself, he would do so to motivate himself to exert an efficient level of effort that would maximize the expected return. He can then extract the entire surplus from the shareholder through a lump sum base salary for himself, making the shareholder’s individual rationality constraint binding in the process. If the board designs the managerial contract, it would again motivate the manager to exert the efficient level of effort, despite the manager in this scenario would not enjoy the entire surplus. Therefore, whoever designs the contract faces the same optimization problem. This concept is also supported by Finkelstein, 1992; Pfeffer, 1992; Adams et al., 2005.

According to Yin et. al (2008), in determining the optimal managerial contract, a bargaining game between the owner and the manager happened. The bargaining game proceeds given the two reference points, one based on agency theory and the other based on managerial power theory. If the owner has all the bargaining power making a non-negotiable offer to the manager as is typically assumed in agency theory, the resulting contract is the one that maximizes the owner’s expected utility subject to the manager’s individual rationality and incentive compatibility constraints. If the manager has all the bargaining power in contract design, then the resulting outcome is the contract that maximizes the manager’s expected utility subject to the owner’s individual rationality constraint and the manager’s incentive compatibility constraint. In firms where the manager’s base salary is positive and unconstrained, both the size of the manager’s stock-based compensation and the pay-performance sensitivity of management 54 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

compensation are independent of managerial power. In firms where salary is no longer the vehicle through which the powerful manager can fully extract rent from the owner, stock-based compensation is used as an additional channel for rent extraction. That is, the manager awards himself more stock-based compensation when there is a salary ceiling, which increases his income risk and effort incentives. In addition, larger stockbased compensation for the manager implies that the pay-performance sensitivity of managerial contract should also be higher in firms where the manager has more power.

Hope and Thomas (2008) have documented that the influence of insiders, in this case the CEO, will also be a function of the degree of outside institutional ownership shares that hold a controlling interest in the firm. Offsetting this effect, the more shares owned by independent agents, the less will be the CEO's influence on director elections and the more vulnerable the CEO will be to a hostile takeover attempts. Thus, the influence of the CEO increases proportionally to the percentage of shares they own. Starks, Hartzell, and Almazan (2008) believed that the professional reputation is particularly crucial to outside directors who typically aren't joining a board for pay. In some cases where remuneration isn't involved, outside directors join corporate boards for the prestige the membership gives them. Hence, outside directors would be hesitant to construct a compensation plan that would negatively affect their reputations. As a result, outside directors will support management only as long as the compensation contract does not impose too much outrage cost. Holden (2008) believed that the reduction in 55 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

shareholder value caused by CEO compensation contract inefficiencies is likely the biggest cost arising from the influence of managerial power on compensation practices. Thus, improvement in this corporate control area should provide considerable benefits to shareholders from better managerial incentives, firm operations and performance.

According to Finkelstein and D’Aveni (1994), managerial power theory predicts that the concentration of decision-making power in one individual leads to more power, for several possible reasons. They believed that CEO duality plays complementary roles in managerial power theory. First, it typically increases the CEO’s discretionary powers over firm resources and is thereby taken by inside and outside stakeholders reflecting strong leadership. The figurehead CEO/Chair tends to present him or herself as the ulterior representative of the corporation, and typically seeks to underwrite this status and mandate with higher than average pay (Gomez-Mejia, 1994). Second, in a situation of duality, the CEO, as leader of his fellow collaborating executives, is also the leader of the board, and can therefore command additional obedience and loyalty on behalf of those entities that are put in place to set executive pay (Bebchuk and Fried, 2004). Third, the dual role of CEO and chairman can be considered as the highest rank in the corporate hierarchy. This figurehead status, with more mandate and power, can lead to more influence over the pay setting process (Ungson & Steers, 1984).The CEO duality allows executives to extract greater rents from the corporation in countries offering relatively weak protection against managerial self-dealing like the US (Djankovet al., 56 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

2005). In addition, the United States studies have repeatedly shown that there is a positive relationship between pay and duality (Boyd, 1994; Main and Johnston, 1993; Westphal and Zajac, 1995).

According to Bebchuk and Fired (2003), the length of a CEO’s tenure is also likely to be an important determinant of managerial power. Longer tenured CEOs can be expected to have more influence over board members and their decisions because they have more status and more experience with the company and its board. The collaboration among board members and collegial bonds intensify over time, and CEOs with longer tenure have more time to influence this process (Bebchuk & Fried, 2004). The CEOs with longer tenure can also be more influential over the remuneration committee directly. The remuneration committees whose chairs have been installed later than the CEO tend to pay more (Main et al., 1995).

According to Zahra and Pearce (1989), the size of the board in terms of the number of directors is also likely to enable or constrain managerial power. Although monitoring requires capacity, large boards can be ineffective at constraining managerial power because larger boards require more time and effort to build consensus and generate the social cohesion of smaller boards. In addition, larger boards can become ineffective because of internal coordination and communication problems (Bebchuk & Fried, 2004). Therefore, according to O’Reilly & Main (2010) and Pfeffer, (1972), the in-group 57 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

monitoring and collective action problems of larger boards may provide executives with more power over the pay-setting process.

According to Bebchuk and Fried (2004), the composition of the board in terms of the percentage of independent directors may also influence managerial power. The directors are considered independent if they are not currently or have never been employees of the company and have no other relationship with the firm, such as business contracts. However, they highlighted a number of ways that independent directors can actually lose independence and become vulnerable to managerial influence, such as the role of CEOs in director selection, the close connections and bonds of shared interests and collegiality among board members, and the dependence of independent directors on managers for information. Moreover, the collaboration among independent board members and managers may intensify over time. In such situations, independent directors can become less willing to challenge executive compensation arrangements.

According to Tosi et al. (2000), the managerial power theory argues that the ownership structure of the corporation can enable or constrain the power of CEOs. For example, large, concentrated owners often have both the means and incentives to monitor management effectively (Bebchuk & Fried, 2004). More specifically, since these

58 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

owners have large investment stakes, they are more dependent on the performance of the firm. In addition, large owners are more able to protect their interests by means of both formal influence, such as the nomination of and voting for directors, and informal communication with the management (Smith, 1996). In contrast, for dispersed shareholders, who own only a small percentage of a firm, the costs of close monitoring may be too high relative to the possible gains produced by such monitoring. In addition, dispersed shareholders are likely to have dispersed strategies and goals for increasing firm value, leaving management with more influence to make their own calls (Thomsen and Pedersen, 2000). In addition to the concentration of ownership, the identity of a firm’s owner can also constrain or enable managerial power over executive compensation practices. Although their status as institutional investors does not give them more formal power than other investors, they often have substantial holdings and fiduciary obligations to their investors to improve the returns to their clients. Therefore, institutional investors tend to more actively monitor management than individual investors and may be more able to constrain the executive power in setting compensation (Bebchuk & Fried, 2004).

According to Gomez-Mejia (1994), a theory that extends managerial power theory is class hegemony theory. This theory argues that executives within a firm and executives from other firms share a commonality of interests. Where managerial power theory

59 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

stops at the boundaries of firms, class hegemony theory extends managerial views beyond these boundaries. Shared interests and objectives to create bonds between executives that extend beyond a single organization. These bonds form relationships which in turn forms a class across different organizations. By using this shared power the executives can protect their privileges and the wealth of their class. Although primarily executives’ input is used to legitimize high executive pay, setting high pay is also a token of executives’ power to protect shared interests and objectives. Setting executive pay is thus a result of the social managerial class’s power to protect their interests and objectives that are at potential risk. 2.2.9 CEO Compensation and Stewardship Theory and CEO Power Stewardship Theory has been framed as the organizational behavior counterweight to rational action theories of management (Donaldson and Davis, 1991). This theory holds that there is no conflict of interest between managers and owners, and that the goal of governance is, precisely, to find the mechanisms and structure that facilitate the most effective coordination between the two parties (Donaldson, 1990). That is, this theory holds that there is no inherent problem of executive control, signifying that organizational managers tend to be benign in their actions (Donaldson, 2008). The stewardship theory defines the situations in which managers’ motives are aligned with the objectives of their principals, rather than motives of individual goals. It argues that stewards place higher value on co-operation and thus perceive greater utility in 60 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

cooperative behavior. The essential assumption underlying the prescriptions of stewardship theory is that the behaviors of the manager are aligned with the interests of the principals. A steward’s utility function is maximized when the shareholders’ wealth is maximized (Davis et al., 1997). The steward perceives that the utility gained from interest alignment and collaborative behavior with the principal is higher than the utility that can be gained through individualistic, self-serving behaviors (Davis et al., 1997). Stewardship theory places greater value on goal convergence among the parties involved in corporate governance than on the agent’s self-interest (Van Slyke, 2006). The stewardship theory assumes a strong relation between the firm’s success and principal satisfaction. This theory, a sociological and psychological approach to governance, hinges on the assumption that executives feel a strong sense of attachment to and psychological ownership of their firm, and hence are more likely to behave as stewards. This perspective stands in marked contrast with agency theory in which managers are assumed to act in their own interest at the expense of shareholders. Higher levels of ‘psychic income’ (Gimeno, Folta, Cooper, and Woo, 1997) should make such ‘organizationally centered’ executives accept lower cash compensation to continue working in the organization (Davis, Schoorman, and Donaldson, 1997).

Stewardship theory argues that there is no general executive motivation problem, because executives act as true stewards of the firm, in pursuit of organizational goals. 61 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Executive pay plays a secondary role in executive motivation, because non-financial rewards are of more importance (Donaldson et al., 1991). It focuses more on intrinsic, rather than extrinsic rewards. The executives are intrinsically motivated by the need to achieve and to receive recognition from others. The executive pay could be legitimized by arguing that it is merely a relatively minor part of executive motivation and forms only part of the recognition that executives receive for being stewards of the firm. In addition, it argues a contradicting view of CEO power (Davis et al., 1991). However, it does not provide a-priori clear hypotheses about pay levels or pay structures and could therefore be questioned as a useful theory to legitimize executive pay. In the economics and finance literature, the stewardship theory has never been regarded as a valid alternative to agency theory, has not lead to practical managerial decision rules, and has gained little empirical support. Davis et al. (1997) states that stewardship views are addressed because the theory does attempt to explain that executive pay does not have to be strongly related to shareholder wealth or other measures of the firm’s financial performance. Using sociological and psychological approaches, stewardship theory sees subordinates as collectivists, pro-organizational and trustworthy relative to agency theory, which assumes subordinates to be individualistic, opportunistic, and self-serving Donaldson (1995). In the psychological aspect, there is the use of power. It is meant that managers receive satisfaction from the use of power and are therefore motivated by it (McClelland, 1975). 62 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

The power motive is defined as the need to influence others to achieve organizational goals (McClelland and Burnhan, 1976). According to Davis et al. (1997), power is institutionally and personally based. Where institutional power means that principal exert control based on its position in the organization by identification of the principal to the organization. Davis et al. (1997) argues that coercive legitimate and reward power could be seen as institutional power. On the other hand, personal power is based on an intrinsic abilities and interpersonal relationships. Davis et al. (1997) explains that expert and referent power are typical for personal power where referent power is created through identification between individuals. This type of power is not affected by organizational structure and formality. For the principal-steward relationship with the stewardship theory, personal power is vital.

2.3 CEO COMPENSATION AND FIRM PERFORMANCE 2.3.1 CEO Compensation and Pay Structure Koplyay et al. (1992) reported that top Canadian managers get 35-50% of their pay in the form of incentives while the United States CEOs get 50-75% of their pay in the form of incentives. In addition, they reported that the average Canadian CEO took 30% of total pay in the form of bonus, and 11% of total pay in the form of stock purchase plans or stock options. Mehran (1992) reported that CEOs took 67% of total pay in the form of salary and bonus, and 22% in the form of equity based incentives. This study is based 63 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

on two year period. In addition, Mehran’s another study conducted in 1995 finds that nearly 74% of CEOs’ compensation are in salary and bonus. This study is based on one year period. Agarwal (1981), Finkelstein and Boyd (1998), and Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989,1996) concluded that a simple measure of cash compensation is an excellent proxy for CEO total pay. This is supported by Douglas & Santerre (1990) and Gomez-Mejia, Tosi and Hinkin (1987), who reported that an average “R” (regression) between salary and total compensation of 0.75 in the sample of k (years)=8, and n=1400 (companies). However, they find that most of previous studies have used CEO total compensation (CEO compensation)5 relative to CEO cash compensation6 as a dependent variable in their studies. This is perhaps due to, third party data are either available mostly on the CEO total compensation basis or researchers are not interested in segregating short and long terms aspects of the CEO compensation system. As such, CEO cash compensation has rarely been studied with firm performance. Nevertheless, previous studies have found that CEO cash compensation is an excellent proxy for CEO total compensation.

2.3.2 CEO Compensation and Firm Performance Linkage According to previous studies conducted in the United States and the United Kingdom, CEO compensation is believed to be weakly related to firm performance. Loomis (1982) argued that pay is unrelated to performance. Henderson and Fredrickson (1996), and Sanders and Carpenter (1998, 2002) argued that CEO total pay may be unrelated to performance but it related to organizational complexity they manage. Likewise, studies conducted by Murphy (1985), Jensen and Murphy (1990), and Joskow and Rose (1994) find similar conclusions.

Jensen and Murphy (1990) argued that incentive alignment as an explanatory agency construct for CEO pay is weakly supported at best. That is, objective provisions of principal agent contract are not comprehensive enough to effectively create a direct link between CEO pay and performance. They find that pay performance sensitivity for executives is approximately $3.25 per $1000 change in shareholder wealth, small for an occupation in which incentive pay is expected to play an important role. This is supported by Tosi, Werner, Katz and Gomez-Mejia (2000), who finds that overall ratio of change in CEO pay and change in financial performance is 0.203, an accounting for about 4% of the variance. This weak relationship is explained by Borman & Motowidlo (1993) and Rosen (1990), who stated that archival performance data focuses only on a

65 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

small portion of a CEO’s job performance requirements. As a result, it is difficult to achieve a robust conclusion.

According to Jensen and Murphy (1990) who believed that CEO bonuses are strongly tied to an unobservable performance measure. They believed that if bonuses depend on performance measures observable only to the board of directors, they could have provided a significant incentive. They believed that one way to detect the existence of such phantom performance measures are to examine the magnitude of year to year fluctuations in CEO compensation. They believed that such fluctuations signify CEO pay is unrelated to accounting performance. In addition, they argued that although bonuses represent 50% of CEO salary, such bonuses are awarded in ways that are not highly sensitive to performance. And the variation in CEO pay can be explained by changes in accounting profits than stock market value. Overall, they believed that pay performance sensitivity remains insignificant.

Jensen and Murphy (1990) finds in their study that CEO received an average pay increase of $31,700 in years when shareholders earned a zero return, and received an average additional 1.35¢ per $1,000 increase in shareholder wealth. These findings are comparable to those of Murphy (1985,1986), Coughlan and Schmidt (1985), and Gibbons and Murphy (1990), who finds that pay performance elasticity of approximately 0.1, signifying, salaries and bonuses increased by about one percent for every ten 66 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

percent rise in the value of the firm. In addition, they find an average pay increase of CEOs whose stockholders gains $400 million is $37,300, compared to an average pay increase of CEO whose stockholders lose $400 million is $26,500. These findings are supported by Jensen and Murphy (1990), who believed that CEO cash compensation should be structured to provide big rewards for outstanding performance and meaningful penalties for poor performance. In addition, they believed that the relationship between CEO cash compensation and firm performance would be less troubling if CEO owned a large percentage of corporate equity. Gilson and Vetsuypens (1993) argued that the association between pay and performance is small in economic terms when performance is measured in terms of changes rather than levels. This is supported by Iyengar (2000) who argued that changes in CEOs compensation are unrelated to changes in firms’ performance perhaps due to stockholders in poorly performing firms would like to adopt a cautious wait and see attitude, to assess whether a change in performance is permanent before rewarding senior managers. This is further supported by Antle and Smith (1986), who finds no relation between CEO cash compensation and firm performance. However, these statements are contradicted by Jensen and Zimmerman (1985), who stated that evidences are inconsistent with a view that executive compensation is unrelated to firm performance and enriches managers at the expense of shareholders. This is supported by Gibbons and Murphy (1990), who finds that CEO pay changes by about 1.6% for each 10% of return on common stock. That is, the CEO pay structure is positively and significantly related to firm performance, 67 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

as measured by the rate of return on common stock. This is supported by Lambert and Larcker (1987) and Sloan (1993), who finds that there is a positive relation between CEO compensation and stock returns. According to Blanchard, Lopez-de-Silanes and Shleifer (1994), Iyengar, Raghavan J. (2000), and Bertrand and Mullainathan (2001), who stated that CEO cash compensation increases when firm profits rise for reasons that have nothing to do with managers’ efforts. Murphy (1986) believed that top executives are worth every nickel they get.

McEachern (1975), Allen (1981), Amould (1985), Gomez-Mejia, Tosi, and Hinkin (1987), Dyl (1988), Gomez-Mejia and Tosi (1989), and Kroll, Simmons and Wright (1989), believed that the relationship between executive pay and performance may be stronger in owner-controlled than management-controlled firms. Werner and Tosi (1995), who finds in their study that managers in widely held firms are paid more than managers in closely held firms. Dyl (1988) argued that there is a downside hedge in compensation of CEOs in management-controlled firms, provided it is more related to firm size than performance. According to Hunt (1986), several studies have shown owner-controlled firms are more profitable; several studies have shown management- controlled firms are more profitable; and other studies have shown no differences. As a result, he believed that perhaps these inconsistent results could be different uses of accounting performance measures in previous studies.

68 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Williamson (1963) argued that vigilant directors do not suppress CEO compensation as much as they try to tightly link it to the firm’s performance. In addition, he believed that directors strive to reward high performance and penalize low performance, their own attempt to induce managerial actions aimed at maximizing shareholder wealth. Mehran (1995) finds that companies in which CEO compensation is relatively sensitive to firm performance tend to produce higher returns for shareholders than companies in which the relationship between CEO pay and performance is weak. Gaver et al. (1995) and Holthausen et al. (1995a), who believed that executives managed earnings downward when reported performance exceeds contract and they managed earnings upward when reported performance is below threshold. In addition, they may also smooth the performance in the incentive zone if pay for performance relation is concave above standard (Indjejikian and Nanda, 2002). Sanders and Carpenters (1998) and Finkelstein and Boyd (1998) believed that firm performance is only one of many influences that impact CEO pay. That is, the CEO contract encompasses a complex set of factors such as, outcome measurability (Eisenhardt, 1985, Fernie and Metcalf, 1996, Gomez-Mejia and Balkin, 1992); outcome uncertainty (Eisenardt, 1985,1988); information systems (Eccles, 1985); time (Conlon and Parks, 1990); information asymmetries (Henderson and Frederickson, 1996); and task programmability (Eisenhardt, 1985).

Healy (1985), Lambert and Larcker (1987), Pavlick et al. (1983), and Verrechia (1986) believed that incentive scheme based on accounting performance measure appear to 69 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

influence accounting earnings. Porac and Pollack (1997) finds that when accounting returns are high then firm downplay market returns. However, Lambert and Larcker (1987) argued that firms place relatively more weight on market performance than on accounting performance measure in compensation contracts for situations in which variance of accounting performance measure is high relative to market performance measure, when the firm is experiencing high growth rates or managers holding of the firm’s stock is low. However, Gibbons and Murphy (1989) argued that basing compensation on accounting performance distorts CEO incentives. That is, paying executives based on accounting profits rather than changes in shareholder wealth not only manipulates accounting results, but also ignore projects with large net present values in favor of less valuable projects. This is supported by Ronen and Sadan (1981), who argued that corporate managers often engage in income smoothing, taking actions to dampen fluctuations in their firms’ publicly reported net incomes. This is supported by Trueman and Titman (1988), who stated that by smoothing income, managers may attempt to reduce estimates of various claimants of the firm therefore, will stabilize net income. Jensen and Murphy (1990) finds in their study that CEO compensation is weakly related to changes in accounting profits and sales, but is unrelated to market and industry performance. That is, the amount of CEO pays at risk for a $48 million change in accounting profits is $9,000, or less than 2 percent of compensation for CEOs with median earnings of $490,000.

70 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Murphy (1999) stated that bonus contracts are usually written based on accounting earnings and not explicitly on stock returns. Bushman et al. (1995,1996) reported that 40 percent of their sampled CEOs received bonuses based on individual performance evaluation which includes discretionary and subjective bonuses. However, Murphy and Oyer (2002) believed that CEOs are less likely than non CEO executives to receive discretionary bonuses. Ellig (2002) argued that accounting measures are backward looking and pertain to short term firm performance. Shaw and Zhang (2010) finds that when earnings performance is very poor, CEO’s bonus is zero. In addition, they find that CEO cash compensation is sensitive to accounting performance. That is, earnings performance improves beyond the lower bound, a linear relation between CEO cash compensation and firm performance is expected in the incentive zone. Similarly, earnings performance improves above the upper bound, cash compensation becomes insensitive to performance and therefore no bonus is further awarded. However, other researchers believed that the relationship between executive pay and performance may be stronger in owner-controlled than management-controlled firms (McEachern, 1975, Allen, 1981, Arnould, 1985, Dyl, 1988, Kroll, Simmons and Wright, 1989). This is supported by Gomez-Mejia, Tosi and Hinkin (1987), who stated that managementcontrolled firms clearly design compensation systems to avoid the vagaries of fluctuating performance. In addition, executives in management-controlled firms may be decoupled from performance through organizational policies and practices such as, widely dispersed equity holdings or managerial control over the board of directors as 71 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

such, less compensation uncertainty for CEOs (Tosi and Gomez-Mejia, 1989). Murphy (1999) reported that 62% of performance measures used in bonus contracts are accounting based and the rest is based on individual performance measures. In addition, he reported that earnings based bonus contracts often contain lower and upper bounds, suggesting reduced sensitivity of cash payments to earnings when earnings are either very high or very low. Secondly, since accounting earnings exclude unrealized gains and include unrealized losses, CEO pay will react symmetrically to accounting earnings and losses.

Lambert and Larcker (1987) and Sloan (1993) argued that CEO cash compensation may be more closely related to accounting than stock performance. This is supported by Warfield and Wild (1992), who reported that explained variance (adjusted R²) in the relationship between accounting earnings and shareholder return is .02 over a quarter period, increased to .09 over one year, and increased to .40 over four years. Natarajan (1996) finds that the cash flow measure is used to supplement accounting earnings in CEO contracts. Leone et al. (2006) argued that if the accounting system is designed solely for use in compensation contracts, then there would be no asymmetry in the relation between CEO cash compensation and accounting earnings, provided when firms have no other accounting based contracts, litigations, taxes, and accounting method of choice. On the other hand, Gilson and Vetsuypens (1993) argued that accounting earnings may be an unreliable indicator of firms’ true financial condition 72 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

because CEOs have strong economic incentives to manage accounting earnings when firms are in distress.

Holthausen et al. (1995) and Leone and Rock (2002) argued that accounting based annual bonus plans motivate executives to be more productive in the short term. In addition, they believed that target bonuses reflect ex ante intentions to motivate their executives thereby increasing firm value. Indjejikian and Nanda (2002) finds that executives’ target bonuses are negatively associated with accounting based performance metrics and positively associated with proxies for firms’ growth opportunities. In addition, they also find that firms do not fully adjust performance standards for executives’ past performance. That is, if executive previously earned more than his target bonus, then he has a 72% chance of earning more than his target bonus again in the current year. Similarly, if the executive previously earned less than his target bonus, then he has only a 42% chance of earning more than his target bonus in the current year. Likewise, they also find that executive’s expected abnormal bonus (difference between actual and target bonus) in the current period is highly correlated with abnormal bonus received in the previous period. Antle and Smith (1986) believed that the executive’s ability to hedge systematic or unsystematic risk through a compensation plan based on accounting measure is less likely than his ability to hedge such risk when compensation plan is based on market measure.

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Tosi and Gomez-Mejia (1989), authorities on executive compensation topic, stated that despite the enormous amount of efforts and expenditures in mining these public databases, the results are disappointing and often conflicting. One group of researchers has found no relationship between executive pay and firm performance (e.g., Redling, 1981, Kerr and Bettis, 1987); while another group of researchers has reached the opposite conclusion (e.g. Masson, 1971, Murphy, 1985). These opposing camps are exemplified by the conclusion of Kerr and Bettis (1987), who finds that there is no rational basis of top management compensation. Barkema and Gomez-Mejia (1998) argued that failure to identify a robust relationship between top management compensation and firm performance have led scholars into a blind alley. Tosi et al. (2000) blamed divergent results to the use of different data collection methods, different statistical techniques, different sample sizes, the presence of different moderator variables, and differences in how constructs of interest have been operationalized in various studies. In addition, they believed that previous studies rely on a traditional narrative approach which critically compares, contrasts, and integrates a large number of studies as such, have reserved the interpretation of the results to the author. Therefore, these synthetic works suffer from the same malady, while some authors concluding that firm performance are an important predictor of CEO pay (e.g., Ehrenberg and Milkovich, 1987); and others concluding that evidences fail to support such a relationship (e.g., Gomez-Mejia, 1994).

74 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Overall, previous studies between CEO compensation and accounting performance have not been robust as such the results have ranged from nil to weak positive correlations. These inconsistent findings are perhaps due to the selection of different sample sizes, different measurement periods, and different proxies for accounting earnings. In addition, firm size has never been used as a control variable towards understanding the relationship between CEO cash compensation and accounting earnings, in clear terms. 2.3.3 CEO Compensation and Return on Assets (ROA) Jensen and Murphy (1990) and Ely (1991) argued that applying return on assets (ROA) as a firm performance measure is considered highly important in determining executive compensation. This is supported by Finkelstein and Boyd (1998) and Finkelstein and Hambrick (1996), who have used ROA in their respective executive compensation studies. Antle and Smith (1986) finds that there is a strong correlation between CEO compensation and ROA. This is supported by Shawn and Zhang (2010), who finds that changes in CEO cash compensation is significantly and positively correlated with changes in ROA. However, from the meta analysis conducted by Tosi, Werner, Katz and Gomez-Mejia (2000), who finds that estimated correlation between CEO pay and ROA is 0.117, which accounts for less than 2% of variance in CEO pay levels. On the other hand, Mehran (1995) finds that ROA is inversely related to the percentage of

75 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

CEOs’ total cash compensation, despite controlling for firm’s growth opportunities, assets in place, leverage ratio, business risk, and size.

Sigler (2011) argued that rewarding cash bonuses to executives may encourage the undesired behavior. That is, cash bonuses tied to accounting performance such as ROA may motivate executives to manipulate the timing of revenues and expenses. Balsam, Fan and Mawani (2011) finds in their study that CEOs of large firms (as a proxy by Sales) earned higher levels of compensation. The accounting profitability (ROA) is positively associated with total cash compensation, and the market return is positively associated with CEO salary and total compensation. Their study is based on a sample of 300 companies obtained from TSX/S&P index from 2001 to 2006. On the other hand, Leone et al. (2006) finds that there is no change in CEO pay to changes in ROA based on positive and negative stock returns. Overall, previous studies have found weak relationships between CEO compensation and return on assets. Furthermore, studies lacked extensity and robustness. Firm size has never been used as a control variable towards understanding the relationship between CEO cash compensation and return on assets, in clear terms. 2.3.4 CEO Compensation and Return on Equity (ROE) Antle and Smith (1986) have argued that common stock returns are an obvious choice to measure an executive performance. They believed that common stock returns 76 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

impound information about changes in a firm’s financial condition which are associated with both current and anticipated actions and events. In addition, most executives’ wealth is tied to stock returns directly through ownership of shares and options in their employer firms. This is supported by Leone, Wu and Zimmerman (2006), who stated that stock returns are positively correlated to CEO cash compensation. They referenced their statement to Holmstrom (1979), who explained that as long as stock returns and earnings are informative about managers’ effort, each will be used in setting CEO’s cash compensation. Mehran (1995) finds that stock return as a proxy for firm performance is most appropriate for all equity firms. In addition, he finds (1999 study) a positive correlation between stock returns and cash compensation, despite they are not contractually linked to CEO contracts. This is supported by Murphy (1985), Kren and Kerr (1997), and Murphy and Oyer (2003), who reported a positive association between executive compensation and stock returns. Leone, Shuang Wu and Zimmerman (2006) argued that CEO cash compensation is roughly twice as sensitive to negative stock returns as it is to positive stock returns. Their finding is based on data collected from 1993 to 2003. This is supported by Shaw and Zhang (2010), who finds that the relationship between changes in CEO cash compensation and stock returns for firms with negative market adjusted returns are stronger than firms with positive market adjusted returns. In addition, they find no asymmetry in CEO cash compensation for firms with low stock returns. On the other hand, Dechow (2006) believed that Leone et al. (2006) study misclassified a large number of firms with good earnings performance 77 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

as poor performance such that observed asymmetries in CEO pay is due to the Board of Directors practically applying bonus contract provisions. That is, CEOs are not penalized rather are rewarded for negative firm performance. This is supported by Garvey and Milbourn (2004), who finds that CEOs are rewarded for good luck but not penalized for bad luck, where luck is defined as a component of firm stock returns that is associated with market or industry returns. This is also supported by Jensen and Murphy (1990), Kaplan (1994), and Gaver and Gaver (1998), who find that CEO cash compensation is shielded from transitory accounting losses, and senior managers on average suffer a little reduction in their personal wealth even when their firms perform poorly. However, Barclay et al. 2005 believed that punishment for poor performance might be plausible when performance is based on returns. This is contradicted by Lambert and Larker (1987) and Sloan (1993), who find that CEO compensation is more sensitive to measures based on earnings than stock returns. This is supported by Firth et al. (1996,1999) and Gregg et al. (1993), who revealed that here is no significant relationship between earnings and stock returns. This is also supported by an earlier study conducted by Johnson (1982), who finds that ROE to be correlated with executive pay at .003. Similarly, Finkelstein and Boyd (1998) reported a correlation of -.03 between CEO compensation and ROE. On the other hand, Belliveaus, O’Reilly and Wade (1996) finds that the correlation between CEO pay and ROE is .410. Aggarwal and Samwick (1999) believed that CEO pay performance sensitivity systematically varies with stock return volatility. Nyberg, Fulmer, Gerhart and Carpenter (2010) finds 78 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

that changes in CEO compensation and stock returns are likely to be more strongly related if measurement periods and measurement components are appropriately matched, for example, short term compensation with short term accounting performance and long term compensation with long term firm performance.

Overall, previous studies between CEO compensation and return on equity have produced mixed results ranging from weak negative to good positive correlations. These inconsistent findings are perhaps due to the selection of different sample sizes and different measurement periods. Furthermore, firm size has never been used as a control variable towards understanding the relationship between CEO cash compensation and return on equity, in clear terms. 2.3.5 CEO Compensation, Stock Ownership, and Stock Price Boudreaux (1973), Plamer (1973), and Gomez-Mejia, Tosi, and Hinkin (1987) believed that a single equity holder who controls at least five percent of voting stock is characterized as an owner-controlled firm. Similarly, when there is no equity holder with at least 5 percent of the stock, firm is called management controlled firm. However, Tosi and Gomez-Mejia (1989) argued that though these five percent criteria are widely used in research studies, but it has never been shown as criteria for control or qua control. Rather, it is only used to differentiate in performance measures or organizational practices such as financial reporting. On the other hand, Jensen and Murphy (1990) and 79 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Hubbard and Palia (1995) favored performance to be measured with stockholder value to reflect CEO wealth. Murphy (1999) believed that the relationship between shareholder and CEO financial outcomes is obvious and explicit. That is, executive and shareholder returns are based on the value of the same underlying asset, company stock. Gerhart et al. (2009) believed that earnings are imperfectly related to shareholder return primarily due to firm specific wealth is generated via equity positions.

According to Jensen and Murphy (1989), CEOs in large firms tend to own less stock and have less compensation based incentives than CEOs in small firms. Murphy (1985) and Coughlan and Schmidt (1985) argued that changes in executive compensation are positively related to changes in current year stock price. Moreover, they argued that while the relation between changes in executive pay and changes in shareholder wealth is statistically significant (low correlation), much of the variance in executive compensation remains unexplained. The study conducted by Murphy (1985) is based on a sampling of 461 executives in 72 companies over 18 years, and the study conducted by Coughlan and Schmidt (1985) is based on a sampling of 249 executives from 249 companies over 4 years. However, Bickford (1981), Ellig (1984), Rich and Larson (1984), and Decktop (1987) argued that since stock prices are very sensitive to external events therefore may have little to do with how efficiently a firm is run and controlled by management. Jensen and Murphy (1990) finds that there is no correlation between CEO stock ownership and pay performance sensitivity, signifying that, typical 80 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

CEO rewards for corporate performance is from stock ownership rather than by cash incentives.

Overall, previous studies between CEO compensation, stock ownership, and stock price have not been researched on a frequent basis. The results range from nil to weak positive correlation between them. The sampling population is ranged from 72 to 249 companies. The period of study is ranged from four years to eighteen years. In addition, firm size has never been used as a control variable towards understanding the relationship between CEO cash compensation, stock ownership, and stock price, in clear terms.

2.4 CEO COMPENSATION AND FIRM SIZE 2.4.1 CEO Compensation and Firm Size Linkage Prasad (1974) believed that executive salaries appear to be far more closely correlated with the scale of operations than its profitability. He also believed that executive compensation is primarily a reward for previous sales performance and is not necessarily an incentive for future sales efforts. McEachern (1975) believed that executives are risk averse. They can reduce or eliminate risk exposure in their compensation package by decoupling their pay for performance and linking it to a more stable factor, firm size. Gomez-Mejia, Tosi and Hinkin (1987) believed that firm size is a 81 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

less risky basis for setting executives’ pay than performance, which was subject to many uncontrollable forces outside the managerial sphere of influence. Deckop (1988) believed that a strong sales compensation relationship would suggest that CEOs are given an incentive to maximize size rather than profitability. Tosi and Gomez-Mejia (1994) believed that measurement of firm size is the composite score of standardized values of reported total sales and number of employees. Gomez-Mejia and Barkema (1998) defined the relationship between CEO compensation and firm size as “positive”. That is, CEOs in large companies have a higher income than CEOs in small companies. This is supported by Finkelstein and Hambrick (1996), who believed that firm size is related to the level of executive compensation. This is further supported by Murphy (1985), who finds that holding the value of a firm constant, firm whose sales grow by 10% will increase CEO salary or bonus between 2% and 3% Therefore, it shows that size pay relation is causal, and CEOs can increase their pay by increasing firm size, even when increase in size reduces the firm’s market value. Shafer (1998) shown that pay sensitivity, which measured as change in CEO wealth per dollar and change in firm value, falls with the square root of firm size. That is, CEO incentives are 10 times higher for a $10 billion firm than for a $100 million firm.

The famous meta-analysis conducted by Tosi, Werner, Katz and Gomez-Mejia (2000), who finds that the estimated correlation between CEO pay and aggregate firm size factor is .643, signifying firm size account for over 40% of the variance in CEO pay. 82 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Similarly, the adjusted composite correlation between changes in CEO pay and changes in firm size is .225, accounting for about 5% of changes in CEO pay. As such, CEOs can exert more influence of firm size than performance when determining CEO compensation. This is supported by Sigler (2011), who stated that firm size appears to be the most significant factor in determining CEO compensation. His examination is based on 280 firms listed on the New York Stock Exchange from 2006 to 2009. This is further supported by Kostiuk (1990) and Posner (1987), who argued that the large firm size may be used to legitimize high CEO pay to rationalize the size premium, which includes greater organizational complexity and more human capital required to run the business. In addition, Gomez-Mejia (1994) believed that a host of structural factors and pragmatic problems make it difficult for corporations to effectively control executives, leading to compensation packages that are more closely tied to firm size than performance. On the other hand, Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989) finds in their study that the relationship between CEO compensation and firm size is ranged from nil to strong positive ratios. In addition, they find that total assets (proxy of firm size) are strongly related to CEO compensation. Conversely, Mehran (1995) and Eaton and Rosen (1983) find in their study that percentages of salary and bonus are inversely related to firm size. According to Tosi et al. (2000), most previous studies conducted between CEO compensation and firm size are remarkably inconsistent. This is supported by studies conducted by Belkaoui and Picur (1993), David, Koachhar, and Levitas (1998), and Gray and Cannella (1997), they find that correlation between firm 83 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

size and CEO pay are as low as .107, .110, and .170; however, studies conducted by Boyd (1994), Finkelstein and Boyd (1998), and Sanders and Carpenter (1998) find the correlations of .62, .50, and .42.

Overall, previous studies between CEO compensation and firm size have produced divergent results ranging from weak negative to strong positive ratios. These inconsistent findings may be due to the selection of different sample sizes, different measurement periods, and different proxies of firm size such as total sales, total number of employees, or total assets. In addition, firm size has never been used as a control variable towards understanding this relationship between the CEO cash compensation and firm size, in clear terms

2.5 CEO COMPENSATION AND CEO POWER 2.5.1 CEO Compensation and CEO Stock Ownership According to Jensen and Murphy (1990), voting power of CEO includes CEO and his immediate family stock ownership and the percentage of stocks over which CEO has a sale or shared power to direct the voting. It is believed that CEO’s in large firms tend to own less stock and have less compensation based incentives than CEOs in small firms. This is supported by Jensen and Murphy (1990), who finds that as a percentage of total corporate value, CEO stock ownership has never been high in large companies. That is, 84 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

there exists a small and insignificant positive coefficient of the ownership interaction variable, which implied that the relation between compensation and performance is independent of an executive’s stock holdings. In addition, according to their earlier (1989) study, they find that median CEO of one of nation’s 250 largest public companies own shares just over $2.4 million, less than 0.07% of the company’s market value. In addition, they find that 9 out of 10 CEOs own less than 1% of their company’s stock, and 1 in 20 CEOs own more than 5% of the company’s outstanding stocks. Overall, they find that CEOs receive about 50% of their base pay in the form of bonuses. Their study is based on sampling of 73 manufacturing firms during a 15 year period. This is supported by Cyert, Kang and Kumar (2002), who finds a negative correlation between large stockholders and CEO compensation. That is, doubling percentage ownership of external stakeholders reduces non salary compensation by 12% to14%. This is contradicted by an earlier study conducted by Mehran (1995), who finds a positive relationship between the percentage of total cash (salary and bonus) compensation and percentage of shares hold by managers. His study is based on one year’s collection of data. Ungson and Steers (1984) believed that firms where CEOs have large stock ownership and long tenure, they can largely shape their pay. Similarly, Finkelstein and Hambrick (1988) believed that the relative power of a CEO may affect the height of the hurdles that are set to qualify for contingent pay. In addition, they believed that strong family’s position in the firm will increase executive’s power. Moreover, they find that CEO compensation and CEO stock ownership are related in an inverted U-shaped 85 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

manner, compensation highest in situations where CEO stock ownership is characterized as moderate. That is, the point of inflection happened when CEO stock ownership reached about 9 percent in the first 18 years, beyond that, salaries started to decline due to tax preference of incurring capital gains over current income. Bertrand and Mullainathan (2000) finds that CEOs at firms lacking five percent (or larger) stock ownership tend to receive more luck based pay, that is, pay associated with profit increases that are entirely generated by external factors rather than by CEOs’ efforts. In addition, they also find that firms that have fewer external stakeholders, CEO cash compensation is marginally reduced when option based compensation is increased.

Overall, previous studies between CEO compensation and stock ownership have produced inconsistent results ranged from weak negative to good positive ratios. It is believed that these inconsistencies in the results are due to the selection of different sample sizes ranged from seventy three to two hundred and fifty companies; and the selection of a different study period ranged from one to fifteen years. The firm size has never been used as a control variable towards understanding the relationship between CEO compensation and stock ownership, in clear terms. 2.5.2 CEO Compensation and CEO Tenure Murphy (1986) stated that CEO performance is influenced by CEO tenure. That is, he believed that increased CEO tenure may promote principal trust of an agent and in turn 86 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

agent will take actions in the principal’s interest. Similarly, Sigler (2011) finds that CEO tenure appears to be an important variable in determining the level of CEO compensation. His examination is based on two hundred and eighty firms listed on the New York Stock Exchange from 2006 to 2009. In addition, Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989) believed that CEO tenure is thought to have a positive link with compensation. That is, pay steadily increases as CEO gains and solidify power over-time. However, they find in their study that such a relationship is not observed between CEO tenure and CEO pay. As such, they then decided to conduct additional testing, cross sectional associations of CEO compensation and CEO tenure, and have found that there is an existence of a curvilinear relationship, a U-shaped pattern. That is, CEO tenure increases pay up to 18 years and then it started to decline gradually. They have provided two possible explanations for this curvilinear relationship. Firstly, they believed that power accrues for a while and then diminishes due to CEO’s reduced mobility in the managerial labor market, or due to his evolution into a figurehead with one or two younger high priced executives carry the actual weight of a CEO’s job. Secondly, they believed that executives reached a point where they prefer stock over cash compensation. This could occur because of changes in family and financial circumstances. This supposition is supported when they have examined two sub samples and have found that stock compensation carries a higher proportion of total compensation. As such, they believed that CEO tenure increases a shift in pay mix from cash to stock earnings, support the notion that personal circumstances influence pay. In 87 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

addition, they believed that long CEO tenure will create opportunity to recruit sympathetic board members for CEOs. In addition, they find that the average tenure of a CEO is significantly lower in externally controlled firms (2.96 years) than management-controlled firms (5.92 years). Thus, they believed that the boards of externally controlled firms may not need to pay from profitability because CEO tenure is dependent on the owner’s satisfaction with CEO performance. Their study is based on a sample size of sixty companies. Pfeffer (1981) believed that the creation of a personal mystique which may induce unquestioned deference or loyalty, can be expected to occur when CEO power becomes institutionalized in the organization.

Overall, previous studies have shown that linear to curvilinear relationships existed between CEO compensation and CEO tenure. It is believed that these inconsistent results are due to the selection of different sample sizes ranged from sixty to two hundred and eighty companies; and selection of different study periods ranged from four to eighteen years. In addition, firm size has never been used as a control variable towards understanding the relationship between CEO compensation and CEO tenure, in clear terms. 2.5.3 CEO Compensation and CEO Age Deckop (1988) argued that CEO age has little effect on CEO compensation. However, Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989) finds an inverted U-shaped relationship between CEO 88 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

age and CEO cash compensation, indicating, CEO cash compensation increases until CEO reached the age of 59 years and then it starts to decline. This is consistent with the view that earnings over time is in line with CEO’s need for cash, which tends to drop off as he or she gets older due to no major expenditures to incur such as, house and child rearing expenses. This is supported by McKnight et al. (2000), who find that CEO compensation is positively related to a certain age, but it starts to decline afterward. This is further supported by Weir (2000), who finds that the relationship between CEO salaries and CEO age are significantly related but weakening over time, and the relationship between CEO age and CEO bonus appears nonlinear in nature. That is, at about age 53, the proportion of bonus as a percentage of salary begins to decrease at an increased rate. On the other hand, according to Gibbons and Murphy (1992), who finds that CEO age is a well-recognized determinant of compensation and have shown to be significantly related to CEO pay. Overall, previous studies have found the relationship between CEO compensation and CEO age as curvilinear. However, previous studies have lacked a detailed investigation of this relationship. In addition, firm size has never been used as a control variable towards a clear understanding of this relationship. 2.5.4 CEO Compensation and CEO Turnover Jensen and Murphy (1990) finds that CEO turnover probabilities are negatively and significantly related to changes in shareholder wealth. In addition, they concluded that 89 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

the dismissals were simply not an important source of CEO incentives. Gilson and Vetsuypens (1990) examined the nature of compensation packages for financially distressed firms. They found that within a small sample of financially distressed firms, when a turnover occurs, insider replacement CEOs were paid substantially less than their predecessors, but outsider replacement CEOs were paid substantially more. Similarly, Murphy and Oyer (2002) finds that outside CEO replacements receive higher compensation than inside CEO replacements. That is, outside replacement CEOs, at median, typically make $335,360 more than their predecessors while inside CEOs are typically paid only $126,156 more than their predecessors. Brickley (2003) concluded that firm performance continues to explain very little variation of CEO turnover. Overall, despite literature consisted of excellent theoretical discussions on this topic, yet it lacked consistent empirical studies on the relationship between CEO compensation and CEO turnover. Nevertheless, among available empirical studies, it was found that there was a positive relationship between CEO compensation and CEO turnover. However, previous studies have never used firm size as a control variable towards a clear understanding of the relationship between CEO cash compensation and CEO turnover. 2.5.5 CEO Compensation and 5% Management Ownership The study conducted by Boudreaux (1973), Plamer (1973), and Gomez-Mejia, Tosi, and Hinkin (1987) believed that when there is no external equity holder with at least five percent of the stock, firm is called management controlled firm. Jensen and Murphy 90 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

(1989) finds that executive inside stock ownership can provide incentives, but these holdings are not generally controlled by corporate board and the majority of top executives have small personal equity ownership. Mehran (1995) finds a negative relation between the management ownership and level of compensation. Core et al. (1999) finds that CEO equity ownership or the presence of another executive board member who owns at least 5% of the outstanding equity significantly reduces the level of CEO compensation. Bertrand and Mullainathan (2000) finds that CEOs in firms that lacks a five percent (or larger) external shareholder tend to receive more luck based pay, that is, pay associated with profit increases that are entirely generated by external factors rather than by managers’ efforts. In addition, they also find that firms lack large external shareholders, cash compensation of CEOs is less reduced when their option based compensation is increased. Overall, despite literature consisted of some excellent theoretical discussions on this topic, yet it lacked empirical studies between them. Nevertheless, among available empirical studies, it was found that there was a mixed relationship between CEO compensation and 5% management ownership. However, previous studies have never used firm size as a control variable towards a clear understanding between CEO cash compensation and 5% management ownership.

91 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

2.5.6 CEO Compensation and 5% Individual/Institutional Ownership Gomez-Mejia, Tosi, and Hinkin (1987) finds that executives in externally controlled firms receive more compensation for performance and less for scale of operation than their counterparts in firms without dominant stockholders. In addition, they believed that outside dominant stockholders view firms primarily as investments and have power and incentive to align compensation of CEOs with performance of firms. Lambert et al. (1987) finds a negative relation between the existence of outside block holders that owns at least 5% of outstanding shares and executive compensation. This is supported by David, Kochar and Levitas (1998), who find that CEO pay is negatively correlated with the presence of pressure resistant institutional investors and positively correlated with presence of pressure sensitive ones. This is also supported by Cyert, Kang and Kumar (2002), who finds a negative relationship between equity ownership of largest shareholder and amount of CEO compensation. In addition, they find that doubling the percentage ownership of the outside shareholder reduces non salary compensation by 12-14%. This is further supported by Dyl (1998), who finds a negative relation between CEO equity ownership and compensation, which he blamed for monitoring activities that reduce agency costs. Overall, the literature has lacked empirical studies between CEO cash compensation and 5% individual/institutional ownership. Nevertheless, among available empirical studies, it was found that there was a negative relationship between CEO cash compensation and 5% individual/institutional ownership. However, previous 92 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

studies have never used firm size as a control variable towards clear understanding the relationship between CEO cash compensation and 5% management ownership.

94 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

CHAPTER 3 - METHODOLOGY AND METHODS 3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION This research is an empirical comparative study on the extent and nature of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO Power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies from 2005 to 2010. The aim and objective of this research is to understand the effect of firm sizes as a control variable on CEO cash compensation, and to understand CEO cash compensation systems of TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. This research will be an in-depth study, as it will use two sub variables for firm size, eight sub variables for firm performance, and seven sub variables for CEO power.

3.2 METHOD SELECTED Fielding and Fielding (1986, pp. 34) stated: “what is important is to choose at least one method which is specifically suited to explore structural aspects of the problem and at least one which can capture the essential elements of its meaning”. This research study requires collecting, counting, and classifying data, and performing analyses on statistical findings. It requires a process to include a method of deductive reasoning by the use of the measurement tools to collect the relevant data. In addition, it requires only establishing associations among variables using effect statistics such as 95 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

correlations. As such, quantitative research method will be selected for this research study. Bryman (1989) explained that quantitative research method tests hypotheses and identifies patterns in variables whereas qualitative method validates corporate information and informs some of methodological decisions. With its origins in the scientific empirical tradition, quantitative approach relies on numerical evidence to draw conclusions, to test hypotheses or theory, and is concerned with: measurement, causality, generalization, and replication. Burns (2000) believed that quantitative research method is infused with positivism and is based on a collection of quantifiable observations, which permits deduction of the laws and the establishment of relationships. In addition, Creswell (2009) stated that if problem calls for identification of factors that influence an outcome, the utility of an intervention, or understanding clear outcomes, then a quantitative approach is most suitable.

Within a quantitative research method framework, longitudinal survey method will be adopted to collect six years of data from 2005 to 2010. According to Zanaida and Fernando (2000), longitudinal design is seldom used in social science research; however, it is typically within financial investigations that have adopted positivist research philosophy. Buck et al. (2003) and McKnight and Tomkins (2004) believed that financial research is very typical for a positivist investigation. In addition, they believed that using a precise collection of data from annual reports are an obvious approach applied by researchers who have investigated chief executive pay in the past. This is 96 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

supported by Main & Johnson (1993), who believed that companies’ annual reports are a common resource tool when examining compensation details. Accordingly, this study will collect financial data of companies from highly credible SEDAR (represents United States Securities and Exchange Commission) and EDGAR (represents Canadian Securities Administrators) databases. The stratified sample method will be selected for this research study since it requires equal stratum and avoid selection bias towards determining sample sizes. That is, this research study will try to understand the effect of firm sizes on the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations.

The surveys are believed to be useful when a researcher wants to collect data on phenomena that cannot be directly observed. It is a non-experimental, descriptive research method. Groves et al. (2004, pp. 4) stated: "survey is a systematic method for gathering information from (a sample of) entities for the purpose of constructing quantitative descriptors”. As such, this research study will use the survey method to collect data from 2005 to 2010. The linear regression method will be adopted in this research study to perform inferential statistical tests, that is, parametric and correlations to obtain, generalizability of the results. Gomez-Mejia and Balkin (1987), Finkelstein and Boyd (1998), and Gomez-Mejia, Tosi and Hinkin (2000) have used descriptive statistics and correlation approaches, to understand the relationship between CEO compensation and firm performance. In addition, Gupta, Kennedy and Weaver (2009) have also used 97 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

descriptive statistics in their study of the relationship between corporate governance and firm performance.

3.3 APPROPRIATENESS In quantitative research, data collection takes the form of measurements or counts which can be statistically analyzed. That is, quantitative research follows a process of standard procedures and methods, and standard form of analysis and reporting results, of research being undertaken. In addition, it is used to develop theories, identify and justify problems with current practices, and make judgments or identify what others in similar situations may be involved. Therefore, there is no manipulation of variables and no attempt is made to establish causality. In addition, it followed characteristics of objectivity, deductivism, replication, and generalizability. According to Duffy (1985,1986), in quantitative research, investigators maintained an objective view to understand facts, aimed to control or eliminate extraneous variables within the internal structure of the study, and data generated from research are used for standardized testing. The strength of such a detached approach is that it avoids researchers’ bias in the study and therefore ensuring objectivity. Thus, a quantitative approach is used as a vehicle for studying empirical world from the perspective of subject, not the researcher (Duffy, 1987). Cormack (1991) stated that quantitative research methodology tests deductive theory of existing knowledge through the development of hypothesized relationships and proposed outcomes. The process of measurement is central to 98 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

quantitative research because it provides a fundamental connection between empirical observation and mathematical expression of quantitative relationships. Blaikie (1993, pp.110) believed that positivism is the dominant philosophy of quantitative research and it is often used in natural sciences research. According to Denscombe (2003), positivism characteristic is archival research, which demands permanence of data to conduct studies. This is particularly relevant as it allows future researchers to replicate studies.

In contrary, the aim of qualitative research is to describe certain aspects of a phenomenon, with a view to explaining the subject of study (Cormack, 1991). Duffy (1985) described this concept as phenomenology, with its origins lying in the disciplines of history, philosophy, anthropology, sociology and psychology. Leach (1990) stated that phenomenology approach has no explicit intention to count or quantify findings, which are instead described in the language employed during the research process. Benoliel (1985) further elaborates qualitative research as modes of systematic inquiry concerned with understanding human beings and nature of their transactions. It offers insights and understandings of participants. It aims are to study subjects in their natural surroundings and to collect qualitative data. It described in words rather than numbers, and data are collected through observations and discussions. In addition, it includes structured and unstructured interviews, focus groups and ethnography studies.

99 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Furthermore, it highlights key themes or patterns emerge in projects, which are used to comprehend and manage data and test hypotheses.

Overall, this research study is primarily interested in finding the nature of the relationship than as to why the relationship exists, between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. It is interested in empirical and factual than theoretical and exploratory information. It is interested in evidential and objectivity than circumstantial and subjectivity of sample data. It requires a large sample than a few case studies to address three research questions. It requires a collection of historical data than new exploratory data. In addition, it requires conducting structured questionnaire surveys than unstructured qualitative interviews or focus group studies. Therefore, quantitative research method will be adopted for this research.

3.4 RESEARCH DESIGN This research will follow the system of quantitative research framework. It will adopt a longitudinal study approach to collect six years of data from 2005 to 2010. The stratified sample method will be selected for this research study since it requires equal stratum and avoid selection bias towards determining sample sizes. That is, this research study will try to understand the effect of firm sizes on the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and 100 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

NYSE populations. This research study will collect a total of two hundred and forty companies. Each population will have a total of one hundred and twenty companies. Each sub-population (small, medium, and large) will have a sample size of forty companies. The small size companies will be selected based on total revenues up to five hundred million dollars. The medium size companies will be selected based on total revenues over five hundred million to two billion dollars. The large size companies will be selected based on total revenues over two billion dollars. These specific ranges have been created to ensure maximum number of companies from diverse industry background will be available for a stratified sampling. The TSX/S&P sample population will be selected from Canadianbusiness.com website. The NYSE sample population will be selected from NYSE.com website. The survey method will be used to collect sample data. The historical data will be obtained from SEDAR and EDGAR databases. The survey form will consist of five sections, a total of fourteen questions. The SPSS and Microsoft Excel data sheets will be used for recording, processing, and presenting data. The data analysis will be based on the results obtained from descriptive statistics and panel regression such as, analysis of variance (ANOVA), chi-square, F-test, and t test. The scatter plots and histograms will be drawn to analyze the validity and extent of covariances and correlations among assigned variables. In the end, detailed step-by-step analysis will be performed, to address three research questions of this study. Following is the research design figure 1 titled: “Quantitative Research Design”

3.5 VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY In the quantitative research method, researchers are always attempting to transform the subject into measurable or common categories to derive results. As a result, the data demands validity and reliability of research method and design, and statistics. That is, the construction of instruments and administration in the standardized manner based on predetermined procedures are primary requirement of quantitative research. Winter (2000, p. 287) stated that: “quantitative research limits itself to what can be measured or 102 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

quantified … within positivist terminology, and was the result and culmination of other empirical conceptions: universal laws, evidence, objectivity, truth, actuality, deduction, reason, fact, and mathematical data to name just a few”.

The validity determines whether research truly measures what it is intended to measure or how accurate research results. It consists of face validity, content validity, criterionrelated validity, construct validity, convergent validity, divergent validity, discriminant validity, statistical conclusion validity, and external validity. The face validity is concerned with how a measure or procedure appears. In this research, it will be based on designing a survey form to collect relevant data from companies for sampling. The content validity is concerned with the degree to which content of the test matches a content domain associated with the construct. In this research, it will be based on fourteen structured quantitative questionnaires on CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. The criterion validity involves the correlation between test and criterion variables taken as representative of the construct. In this research, the criterion validity will be represented by firm performance, firm size, and CEO power. The construct validity will be based on a measure of how meaningful survey instruments or scale is used in practice. In this research, construct validity will be based on sub variables of all dependent and independent variables such as cash, bonus, net profit margin, return on assets, CEO total value of stocks, and 5% management ownership. There are two approaches to construct validity and they are 103 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

referred to as convergent validity and divergent validity. The convergent validity refers to the degree to which a measure correlates with other measures that is theoretically predicted to correlate with. Its validity is assessed by reviewing t-tests for factor loadings. If all t-tests have shown significant then they are effectively measuring same construct. In this research, t-tests will be conducted between sub variables of CEO cash compensation, firm performance, firm size, and CEO power. On the other hand, divergent validity describes the degree to which operationalization does not correlate with other operationalization, which theoretically should not correlate with. In this research, survey questions were not related and opposite to each other as such divergent validity is not applicable. The discriminant validity is demonstrated if variance extracted estimates are greater than squared correlation. This can be assessed through the results of linear regression - minimum and maximum values of sub variables. The statistical validity is the degree to which conclusions about the relationship among variables are correct. In this research study, statistical validity will be assessed based on linear regression test results with p-value (statistical significance) of .05. That is, pvalue must be less than .05 or 5% to reject the null hypothesis. The external validity is concerned with the extent to which the results of a study can be held true in other cases. In this research study, external validity will be based on analysis of variance and correlation results derived from thirty-six statistical models represent TSX/S&P and NYSE populations.

104 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

The reliability of data is based on the assumption of reliability or repeatability. Primarily, it is concerned with whether the researcher obtains the same results if he could observe the same thing twice. The reliability consists of test-retest reliability, parallel form reliability, inter rater reliability, and internal consistency reliability. The test-retest reliability measures reliability over time. That is, to estimate reliability in repeated situations, observed scores will be calculated, and random and systematic error levels will be estimated and assigned. The lower the random and systematic errors, the higher will be the reliability of data. In this research, the use of historical data from corporate filings will create a high level of accuracy and consistency and thus will enhance reliability. The parallel forms reliability evaluates different questions and question sets that seek to assess same construct. It essentially evaluates two versions of forms by comparing their correlation coefficients. In this research, single survey form will be used for two hundred and forty companies as such, parallel forms reliability will not be applicable. Inter rater reliability evaluates reliability across different people. That is, how similar people categorize items and score items. This research will conduct structured questionnaire survey, as such inter rater reliability will not apply. The internal consistency reliability evaluates individual questions in comparison with one another for their ability to give consistently appropriate results. In this research all the questions and variables are independent of each other. As a result, Cronbach’s Alpha or Kuder Richardson coefficient test will not apply as internal consistency reliability.

105 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

In addition, according to Hussey & Hussey (1997) and Remenyi et al. (1998), large sample size will enhance reliability and can increase population representation. McKnight (1996) and Conyon & Sadler (2001) stated that, as a result of poor response rates or as a deliberate methodological decision, previous studies had employed small sample sizes ranging from fifty to one hundred firms. As such, this research study will select a total sample size of two hundred and forty companies to achieve the reliability of the statistical results among TSX/S&P & NYSE populations.

3.6 SAMPLING METHOD The random sample is the purest form of probability sampling. Yates (2008, p. 27) believed that an unbiased random selection of individuals is important so that in the long run sample represents the population. However, this does not guarantee that a particular sample is a perfect representation by population. The random sample merely allows one to draw externally valid conclusions about the entire population. In addition, it is believed to be more difficult to identify every member of the population, so the pool of available subjects becomes biased. In contrast, the stratified sample method involves the division of a population into smaller groups known as strata. The researcher first identifies the relevant stratums and their actual representation in the population and then a random sample is used to select a sufficient number of subjects from each stratum. In addition, it minimizes the probability of an increase in sampling error. Yun and Teddlie (2007) states that if a researcher is interested in drawing a random sample, 106 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

then she or he typically wants sample to be representative of population on some characteristic of interest. The situation becomes more complicated when the researcher wants various subgroups in the sample to also be represented. In such cases, the researcher uses stratified random sampling, which combines stratified sampling with random sampling. Therefore, this research study will use stratified sampling method since it requires equally firm sizes (small, medium, and large) to validate comparisons of test results among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations.

3.7 DATA COLLECTION In this research, the data collection process starts with survey of two hundred and forty companies. The survey form will consist of five sections. The total of fourteen structured questions will be prepared to collect data on CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. The financial data will be obtained from SEDAR (for TSX/S&P companies) and EDGAR (for NYSE companies) databases. The documents that will be examined are: annual report, audited annual financial statements, management information circular, and proxies and info statements. The survey form will use one and two digit coding to represent variables. The first section of survey form will be based on the background of a company - company name, stock exchange and industry the company represents, and total number of employees employed each year from 2005 to 2010. The second section of survey form will be based on firm performance, that is, total sales, return on total assets, return on equity, earnings per 107 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

share, cash flow per share, and net profit margin, for each year from 2005 to 2010. The third section of survey form will be based on remuneration, which is, CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total compensation, for each year from 2005 to 2010. The fourth section of survey form will be based on CEO profile, that is, CEO age, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, CEO total stocks, and CEO total value of stocks, for each year from 2005 to 2010. The fifth section of survey form will be based on the firm’s ownership, that is, number of management individuals and individual/institutional investors owning at least 5% of the firm’s stock, CEO total common stocks, CEO total value of stocks, and total book and market values of common stocks in the company, for each year from 2005 to 2010.

The company will be classified as owner-managed or management-controlled based on individual/institutional or management individuals owning at least 5% of the company’s common stocks. Each group who owns at least 5% or greater will assign a value of “1”. The CEO age information will be counted backward from 2010 unless he left the company within this study period. The data on the market value of stock will be based on ending share price on Dec. 31 of each year from 2005 to 2010 Dec. 31. The stock prices for both TSX/S&P and NYSE companies will obtain from the TSX.com website. The financial ratios: return on total assets, return on equity, earnings per share, cash flow per share, net profit margin, book value per share, market value per share, and cash flow per share, will either directly obtain from the company’s annual audited report 108 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

or by performing manual calculation of accounts from the company’s balance sheets and income statements. The CEO remuneration: salary and bonus, will obtain from “proxies and info statements” or “management information circular” document. The CEO total cash compensation will be calculated based on CEO salary and CEO bonus. The CEO information: CEO tenure, number of years CEO is employed, CEO total stocks, and CEO total value of stocks, will obtain from proxies and info statements or management information circular document. The firm size: total sales and total number of employees employed, will obtain from the audited annual report.

Companies that do not file their financial information on a consistent (2005 to 2010) basis will not be included in the sample populations. That is, only those companies that are listed with TSX/S&P or NYSE index from 2005 to 2010 will be included in the sample population. This approach will be taken to obtain consistent and mature data from each company. Any survey question which cannot be answered from corporate records will be inquired from the company’s investor relations department. Once all two hundred and forty survey forms are completed, they will then be grouped according to total revenues. The total of six groups (small, medium, and large of TSX/S&P and NYSE populations) will be formed. Each group will consist of forty survey forms. All survey forms will be checked to ensure they are complete and accurate. The sample companies will be listed in Appendix B, and sample survey form will be illustrated in Appendix C. 109 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

In this research study, accounting ratios will represent firm performance, to understand the nature and extent of the correlations with CEO cash compensation. The accounting performance data are believed to be less affected by unpredictable market environment, and it provides performance information of management based on their activities. It will be based on earnings per share (EPS), return on equity (ROE), return on asset (ROA), cash flow per share (CFS), net profit margin (NPM), common stocks outstanding (CSO), the market value of common stocks outstanding (MVCSO), and book value of common stocks outstanding (BVCSO). Nyberg, Fulmer, Gerhart, and Carpenter (2010), Kerr and Bettis (1987), Deckop (1988), and Gomez-Mejia, Tosi, and Hinkin (1987), and many others have used these performance measures as a proxy for firm performance in their studies.

The data collection of CEO power will be based on: CEO age, CEO total stocks holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, 5% management ownership, and 5% individual/institutional ownership. Gomez-Mejia, Tosi, and Hinkin (1987) believed that using 5% ownership convention, researchers have demonstrated significant differences between owner and management controlled firms on a variety of measures, including rates of return on investment (Boudreaux, 1973), risk aversion (Palmer, 1973), performance (Glassman and Rhoades, 1980, McEachern, 1975,

110 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

Sorenson, 1971,1974), executive transitions (Salancik and Pfeffer, 1980), and antitrust activities (Blair and Kaserman, 1983, Chevalier, 1969).

The data collection of firm size will be based on total sales and total number of employees. Tosi and Gomez-Mejia (1994) have used total sales and total number of employees as proxies for firm size. The studies conducted by Eaton & Rosen (1983), Murphy (1985), Hill & Phan (1991), Krug (2003), and Datta et al. (2005), who have used the total number of employees as a standard and common measure for firm size.

3.8 DATA ANALYSIS Ostle and Malone (1988) believed that statistical analysis of data only described what is, and it cannot be determined what ought to be, except insofar as it may throw light upon probable concomitants and consequences of certain situations. In addition, they believed that data analysis is a tool used in designing research, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions. The data analysis for this research study will be based on two phases. The first phase of data analysis will be performed after the surveys are completed which includes checking for accuracy and completeness of survey forms; and data transformation from survey forms to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and then to SPSS data sheets. The second phase of data analysis will consist of performing multivariate analysis in SPSS software. The multivariate analysis refers to statistical

111 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

methods that simultaneously analyze multiple measurements on each variable under investigation. That is, a linear regression analysis will be conducted to analyze data.

During the first phase of data analysis, data will be transferred manually from survey forms to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets for electronically recording. In the Microsoft Excel spreadsheets columns and rows will be labeled according to variables. Each model data set will have separate sheets to ensure data are free from grouping error. Each data sheet will be checked to ensure all survey questions have been answered. It will be checked for accuracy by analyzing marginal variances from 2005 to 2010. It will be checked for outliers by observing and sorting data sheets by columns. Accordingly, if outliers are found then they will be cross-referenced to survey forms. On the data sheets, all companies will be checked by sorting “year” column, to ensure that they contain six years of information from 2005 to 2010. In addition, each data sheet will be formatted to four decimal places for financial ratios and zero decimal places for CEO compensation to achieve accuracy in the statistical results. The second phase of data analysis consisted of copying and pasting data from Microsoft Excel spreadsheets to SPSS data sheets. In SPSS, data sheets will be checked for accuracy and completeness by cross referencing to Microsoft Excel data sheets. The dependent and independent variables, regression coefficients, residuals, plots, predicted values, and distances will be analyzed from the linear regression test. The identified outliers from the linear regression test will be removed by deleting data 112 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

rows and conducting retest as required to achieve no outlets in the statistical model. The data will then be analyzed in nine steps. The first step will consist of an analysis of mean and standard deviation of each variable. The second step of data analysis will consist of a Pearson correlation test and test of significance. The third step of data analysis will consist of regression (R2) and change statistics tests. The fourth step of analysis will consist of analysis of variance (ANOVA) test, F-test, residual test, and pvalue or confidence interval test. The fifth step of data analysis will consist of unstandardized and standardized coefficient tests, t-test, and collinearity statistics test. The sixth step of data analysis will consist of correlations and covariance tests. The seventh step of the data analysis will consist of eigenvalue, condition index, and variance proportion tests. The eighth step of data analysis will consist of a predicted value, standard predicted value, Cook’s distance, and Mahal distance tests. The ninth and final step of data analysis will consist of graphs: histogram, regression standardized residual, scatter plot, and partial regression residual plot tests. According to Glenberg and Langston (1992), descriptive results are graphical representation of associations among variables as such it easier to identify relations among data. Glenberg and Langston (1992) stated that inferential statistics find correlations or relationships among variables as such has led to greater comprehension of data. According to Holland (1986), correlation did not imply causation. This is also highlighted by Pavlik et al. (1993) who argued that most studies relied on ex-post correlations and one cannot infer causation from them. Also, most variables that are expected to influence executive pay 113 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

tended to be highly correlated and this posed a collinearity problem that makes it difficult to isolate unique effects of any single factor (Gomez-Mejia, 1994). Hinton (1995) stated that ANOVA analysis is an appropriate statistical test when correlating more than two variables. According to Lewis-Beck (1993), multiple regressions are an extension of bivariate regression and are used for prediction as well as an explanation. It offers a fuller explanation of dependent variable since few phenomena are products of a single cause. In addition, it ensures that the effect of a particular independent variable is made more certain for the possibility of distorting influences from other independent variables if it were removed. That is, multiple regressions hold constant other independent variables through statistical control as opposed to experimental control. According to Fattorusso (2006), due to a wide variety of internal and external contingencies surrounding executive bonuses, it is worth acknowledging that direction of causation with regard to bonus pay and firm performance is, if at all, difficult to determine. Therefore, the results were discussed in terms of associations rather than causations. The use of the panel regression analysis technique will enable to understand the nature and extent of relationships between dependent and independent variables. Hsiao (2003) stated that panel regression analysis will provide more data points, thereby, will increase the degrees of freedom and reduce collinearity among explanatory variables, which will create efficiency of econometric estimates.

3.9 SUMMARY This research study is an empirical study which requires the use of descriptive statistics and correlations to understand the extent and nature of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. As a result, it demands objectivity, preciseness, and numerical results. It requires extraction of historical data from companies’ corporate records and fillings. It requires verification of data and assigning variables in the statistical model, to achieve precise results and objective interpretations. It requires the adoption of positivist and deductive approaches. Hence, quantitative research method will be selected for this research study. On the other hand, this research will not select a qualitative research method due to its emphasis on phenomenological approaches rather than positivist approaches. It uses inductive and holistic approaches rather than deductive and particular approaches. It is subjective-centered and process-oriented rather than objective-centered and outcome-oriented. And it is designed to be exploratory rather than confirmatory.

The longitudinal study method will be selected to collect six years of data from 2005 to 2010. The stratified sampling method will be selected to understand the effect of firm size as a control variable on the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, and to form a proper comparative analysis of 115 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

TSX/S&P and NYSE compensation systems. This research will have a total sample size of two hundred and forty companies from TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. The TSX/S&P sample population will be selected from the CanadianBusiness.com website. The NYSE sample population will be selected from the NYSE.com website. Each population will have a sample population of one hundred and twenty companies. The three sub-populations of small, medium, and large will be created to represent firm sizes. Each sub-population will consist of forty companies.

The survey method will be adopted to conduct surveys. A survey form will consist of five sections comprise of background of company, firm performance, remuneration, CEO profile, and firm’s ownership. The totaled of fourteen structured questionnaires will be developed to obtain data on CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. The SEDAR and EDGAR databases will be used to obtain financial data. The documents to be examined consist of the proxies and info statements, annual report, audited annual financial statements, and management information circular. Each completed survey form will be checked for accuracy and completeness. The outliers will be investigated by cross-referenced to survey forms. Once all survey forms are completed, they will be manually recorded into Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. The data will then be checked for input errors, outliers, and unformatted cells, before they are copied and pasted to SPSS software data sheet. In SPSS software, separate files will be created and saved for each model test. The linear regression analysis will be 116 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

performed to understand the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. In the linear regression analysis, all columns will be labeled and will accordingly assign as dependent or independent variable. The regression coefficients, residuals, plots, predicted values, distances, and ninety five percent confidence interval limits will be selected to conduct the linear regression test. Each model test results will be saved separately in SPSS database. They will then be transferred to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets for formatting before they will be copied and pasted in Appendix D for presentation. In the end, conclusions will be drawn based on data results. 3.9.1 Description of Data The data presentation will be based on collecting, processing, analyzing, and interpreting results. That is, it includes tabulation, diagrammatic representation, and descriptive methods. It will explain what have discovered from data testing, what changes happened as a result of data findings, and what conclusions drawn from statistical findings. Each section will discuss on analysis of variance (ANOVA) results to address model fitness, Pearson correlations results to address relations among predictor variables, p-value analysis to address model significance, model coefficients and variables results to address the extent and nature of influence of betas and predictors; t-tests results to address means of normal distributions; collinearity tests results (tolerance level and variance inflation factor) to address model validity and 117 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CHAPTER FOUR - DATA PRESENTATION 4.1 PURPOSE OF DISSERTATION The purpose of this research is to investigate in clear terms the extent and nature of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies from 2005 to 2010. To understand TSX/S&P and NYSE populations CEO cash compensation systems. To clarify shareholders, investors, and the public on determinants of CEO cash compensation, that is, compensation factors that involved in rewarding CEOs with salaries and bonuses.

4.2 RESEARCH METHOD This research requires collecting, counting, and classifying data, and performing analyses on statistical findings. It requires a process to include method of deductive reasoning by the use of measurement tools to collect relevant data. It requires only establishing associations among variables using effect statistics such as correlations. It requires studying historical data, testing hypotheses, conducting questionnaire surveys, adopting the method of deductive reasoning by the use of measurement tools to collect data, predicting causal relationships, and numerical calculations to obtain objective results and drawing clear conclusions. As such, the quantitative research method is 120 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

selected for this research study. The longitudinal study method is selected to collect data for the six year period from 2005 to 2010. The stratified sampling method is selected to obtain equal sample sizes for small, medium, and large companies. The survey method is selected to collect financial data using structured questionnaire approach. The inferential statistical methods such as parametric and correlations will be used to achieve generalizability of the results. That is, linear regression analysis is selected to understand the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies.

4.3 DATA COLLECTION In this research, the data collection process started with survey of two hundred and forty companies. The survey form had consisted of five sections: background, firm performance, remuneration, CEO profile, and firm’s ownership. The total of fourteen structured questions was created to collect data on CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. The financial data were obtained from SEDAR (for TSX/S&P companies) and EDGAR (for NYSE companies) databases. The documents that were examined include annual report, audited annual financial statements, management information circular, and proxies and info statements. The survey form had used one and two digits coding to represent variables. The financial ratios were calculated from the company’s balance sheets and income statements to obtain company’s performance data. The data on market value of stock will be based on 121 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

ending share price on Dec. 31 of each year from 2005 to 2010 Dec. 31. The year ended stock price for both TSX/S&P and NYSE companies were obtained from the TSX.com website. The companies that didn’t file their financial information on a consistent (2005 to 2010) basis had not been included in sampling population. That is, those companies that no longer associated with TSX/S&P or NYSE index from 2005 to 2010 had been excluded from sample population. This approach was taken to obtain consistent and mature data from each company. Any survey question which could not be answered from corporate records was inquired from the company’s investor relations department. Once data were collected, survey forms were grouped into small, medium, and large based on total revenues.

During the data collection process, it was found that some company’s stock prices on Dec. 31, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2006 weren’t available on TSX.com website, and CEO age information was not provided for most of Canadian companies. Due to this, the investor relations department of concerned companies were contacted by email to obtain information. In addition, information relating to 5% management stock ownership and 5% individual/institutional stock ownership were found challenging. That is, it demanded a detailed examination of “management and info circular” document of TSX/S&P companies and “proxies and info statements” document of NYSE companies.

122 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

4.4 DATA DISTILLATION The data were analyzed based on small, medium, large, and total population. The company size was assigned based on total revenues. Each data group consisted of two hundred and forty observations (forty companies' times six years), except for total group which consisted of seven hundred and twenty observations (one hundred and twenty companies' times six years). Within those six data groups thirty-six subgroups was formed based on TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. For example: TSX/S&P, small size company, and CEO salary; or NYSE, small size company, and CEO salary. The purpose of forming thirty-six sub data groups was to answer three research questions of this study. At the end of surveys, data were first analyzed for accuracy and completeness. If the surveys were found to have errors then they were cross-referenced to corporate filings to verify and perform corrections. In addition, data were checked for proper formatting such as requirement of four decimal places for financial ratios, no decimal places for CEO compensation, and no symbol and punctuation mark in each data cell. Thirty-six Microsoft Excel spreadsheets were created and named based on population, firm size, and CEO compensation, to represent each subgroup of data. In the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, columns of data were labeled with sub variables of dependent and independent variables, and rows were labeled with company names, to ensure all data were correctly represented. The data were then sorted based on company name and 123 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

year, to ensure each company had consisted of six years of data. Multiple files were created and saved to protect against data corruption or a virus attack. In addition, they were stored on a USB hard drive, in the event that files became corrupted. Once data were formatted in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, they were re-checked for accuracy and completeness. The final step in Microsoft Excel was to copy and paste each spreadsheet data to SPSS “data view” tab. Each SPSS data file was then formatted and labeled in the “variable view” tab which consisted of name, type, width, decimals, label, value, missing column, align, measure, and role. Accordingly, thirty-six separate files were created, named, and saved in the SPSS database before they were tested. The linear regression analysis dialogue box was opened. It consisted of dependent and independent variables, regression coefficients (estimates, 95% confidence intervals, covariance matrix, model fit and R-squared change, descriptive, part and partial correlation, and collinearity diagnostics), residuals (Durbin-Watson and caseware diagnostic), linear regression plots (histogram and normal probability plot), predicted value and residuals (unstandardized and standardized), distances (Cook’s), and prediction intervals (mean and individual), were selected for testing. Once these features were selected, accordingly linear regression tests were conducted. The most important test result to observe was “caseware diagnostic”. This test revealed outliers that required to be deleted. As such, the testing process was repeated until no outlier was reported in model test results. Some models were tested up to fifteen times to

124 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

eliminate outliers. This process had ensured data were highly distilled to get accurate results.

4.5 DATA FINDINGS 4.5.1 Null Hypothesis Testing Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, a total of thirty-six models were tested using the linear regression method in SPSS software. That is, thirty-six operational null hypotheses were tested using combinations of sub dependent and sub independent variables. The first research question was: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, what relationship is there between CEO cash compensation and firm size?. The second research question was: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, what relationship is there between CEO cash compensation and firm performance?. The third research question was: among TSX/S&P and NYSE companies, what relationship is there between CEO cash compensation and CEO power?. 4.5.1.1 Operational Hypothesis Statement 1 H0 :

Among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, there is no relationship between CEO cash compensation (salary and bonus) and firm size (return on sales and total number of employees).

4.5.1.2 CEO Cash Compensation vs. Firm Size (TSX/S&P & NYSE Small, Medium, And Large Populations) The purpose of this section was to understand the nature and extent of the relationship between CEO cash compensation and firm size. The twelve statistical models were tested based on firm sizes of small, medium, and large from TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes. Each statistical model consisted of forty companies. The comprehensive results were provided in Appendix D section 1.1 to 1.12 for review. Analysis of variance (ANOVA): The following table summarized ANOVA findings between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and firm size of TSX/S&P index companies:

Table 4.5.1.2A ANOVA (TSX/S&P – CEO cash compensation vs. firm size) Small Medium Large F(2,236)=83.784 F(2,231)=34.309 F(2,236)=25.510 Salary vs. p=.000 p=.000 p=.000 firm size 2 2 R =0.145 R =0.229 R2=0.182 F(2,216)=15.948 F(2,226)=7.919 F(2,212)=12.863 Bonus vs. p=.000 p=.000 p=.000 firm size R2=0.129 R2=0.065 R2=0.106

The results had indicated that there were relationships between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and firm size among all six models as such, operational null hypotheses were rejected at α=.05. The regression (R2) was found to be ranged from weak to moderate 127 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

ratios across all six firm sizes. The following table summarized findings between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and firm size of NYSE index companies.

Table 4.5.1.2B ANOVA (NYSE – CEO cash compensation vs. firm size) Small Medium Large F(2,235)=84.103 F(2,233)=10.340 F(2,229)=36.659 Salary vs. p=.000 p=.000 p=.000 firm size R2=0.412 R2=0.286 R2=0.243 F(2,215)=15.502 F(2,231)=1.759 F(2,218)=5.558 Bonus vs. p=.000 p=.175 p=.004 firm size 2 2 R =0.126 R =0.015 R2=0.049

The results had indicated that there were relationships between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and firm size, except for the relationship between CEO bonus and firm size in the medium sized company as such, five operational null hypotheses were rejected at α=.05. The regression (R2) was found to be ranged from weak to moderate ratios across all six firm sizes.

Correlations: In TSX/S&P small population, correlation results had shown a good positive correlation of 0.574 between salary and total sales; and good positive correlation of .54 between salary and total employees. The moderate positive correlation of 0.358 between bonus and total sales; and weak positive correlation of .125 between bonus and total employees. In NYSE small population, correlation results had shown a good positive 128 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

correlation of 0.575 between salary and total sales; and good positive correlation of .542 between salary and total employees. The moderate positive correlation of 0.353 between bonus and total sales; and weak positive correlation of .121 between bonus and total employees.

In TSX/S&P medium population, correlation results had shown a moderate positive correlation of 0.477 between salary and total sales; and weak positive correlation of .029 between salary and total employees. The moderate positive correlation of 0.25 between bonus and total sales; and weak negative correlation of -.019 between bonus and total employees. In NYSE medium population, correlation results had shown a weak positive correlation of 0.107 between salary and total sales; and weak negative correlation of -.208 between salary and total employees. The weak positive correlation of 0.121 between bonus and total sales; and also weak positive correlation of .027 between bonus and total employees.

In TSX/S&P large population, correlation results had shown a good positive correlation of 0.279 between salary and total sales; and good positive correlation of -.083 between salary and total employees. The moderate positive correlation of 0.32 between bonus and total sales; and weak positive correlation of .112 between bonus and total employees. In NYSE large population, correlation results had shown a moderate positive correlation of 0.422 between salary and total sales; and also 129 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

moderate positive correlation of .407 between salary and total employees. The good positive correlation of 0.09 between bonus and total sales; and good positive correlation of .15 between bonus and total employees.

T-tests: In TSX/S&P & NYSE small populations, t-tests between salary, bonus, total sales, and total number of employees had resulted in rejecting the null hypothesis, indicated variable means were different. However, t-tests between bonus and total number of employees had resulted in accepting the null hypothesis, indicated variable means were same. In TSX/S&P and NYSE medium populations, t-tests between salary, bonus, total sales, and total number of employees had resulted in rejecting the null hypothesis, indicated variable means were different. However, in TSX/S&P medium population, ttests between salary, bonus, and total number of employees had resulted in accepting the null hypothesis, indicated variable means were same. In TSX/S&P and NYSE large population, t-tests between salary, bonus, total sales, and total number of employees had resulted in rejecting the null hypothesis, indicated variable means were different. However, in TSX/S&P large population, t-tests between bonus and total number of employees had resulted in accepting the null hypothesis, indicated variable means were same.

Collinearity diagnostics: The collinearity test assessed the extent of correlation between independent variables. It was based on a tolerance level7, variance inflation factor (VIF)8, eigenvalues9, and condition index10. The twelve statistical model test results had indicated that they were within defined respective relevant ranges, as mentioned in footnotes. As such, multicollinearity11 was not a concern in all twelve models.

Model validity: A valid model requires a variance of residuals that are homogeneous across predicted values, known as homoscedasticity. If a model is well fitted, there should be no pattern to residuals plotted against fitted values. If the variance of residuals is non-constant then residual variance is said to be heteroscedastic. In this research, graphical methods (histogram and scatter plots) were used to detect heteroscedasticity between salary, bonus, total sales, and total number of employees, among TSX/S&P and NYSE small, medium, large, and total populations. It was found from these graphical results that there wasn’t any concern of existence of hetroscedasticity as such, all twelve models were described as homoscedastic. 7 Tolerance level should be within .95 or 95% confidence interval limit. 8 It measures severity of multicollinearity in regression analysis. It should be less than 5 to avoid concerns of multicollinearity. 9 Eigenvalues close to zero indicate a multicollinearity problem. 10 If condition index is 15, multicollinearity is a concern, and if it is greater than 30, multicollinearity is a very serious concern. 11 When a regressor is nearly a linear combination of other regressors in the model, affected estimates are unstable, and have high standard errors.

Model linearity: A linear regression test assumes that the relationship between response and predictor variables is linear. It is conducted by drawing a straight line on data points. In this research, linearity assumption was assessed from the normal probability plot of regression-standardized residual. It was found that in all twelve statistical results, expected and observed probabilities were not divergent to the extent of showing curved band or a big wave shaped curve as such, relationships between salary, bonus, total compensation, total sales, and total number of employees, among TSX/S&P and NYSE small, medium, large, and total populations were close to linear. In addition, histograms had shown normal distributions. 4.5.2 Operational Hypothesis Statement 2 H0 :

Collinearity diagnostics: The collinearity test assessed the extent of correlation between independent variables. It was based on a tolerance level17, variance inflation factor (VIF)18, eigenvalues19, and condition index20. The twelve statistical model test results between CEO salary, CEO bonus, CEO age, CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, 5% management share ownership, and 5% individual/institutional stock ownership had indicated that they were within defined respective relevant ranges. Therefore, multicollinearity21 was not a concern in all twelve models.

Model validity: A valid model requires a variance of residuals that are homogeneous across predicted values, known as homoscedasticity. If model is well fitted, then there should be no pattern to residuals plotted against fitted values. If the variance of residuals is nonconstant then residual variance is said to be heteroscedastic. In this research, graphical methods (histogram and scatter plots) were used to detect heteroscedasticity between salary, bonus, CEO age, CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, 5% management share ownership, and 5% individual/institutional 17 Tolerance level should be within .95 or 95 percent confidence interval limit. 18 It measures severity of multicollinearity in regression analysis. It should be less than 5 to avoid multicollinearity concern. 19 Eigenvalues close to zero indicate a multicollinearity problem. 20 If condition index is 15, multicollinearity is a concern, and if it is greater than 30, multicollinearity is a very serious concern. 21 When a regressor is nearly a linear combination of other regressors in the model, affected estimates are unstable and have high standard errors.

stock ownership, among TSX/S&P and NYSE small, medium, large, and total populations. It was found from these graphical results that there wasn’t any concern of existence of hetroscedasticity as such, all twelve models were described as homoscedastic.

Model linearity: The linear regression test assumed that the relationship between response and predictor variables is linear. It is conducted by drawing a straight line on data points. In this research, linearity assumption was assessed from the normal probability plot of regression-standardized residual. It was found that all statistical models expected and observed probabilities were not divergent to the extent of showing a curved band or a big wave shaped curve, as such, relationships between salary, bonus, CEO age, CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, 5% management share ownership, and 5% individual/institutional stock ownership, among TSX/S&P and NYSE small, medium, large, and total populations were close to linear. In addition, histograms had shown normal distributions.

CHAPTER FIVE - SYNTHESIS 5.0 CHAPTER INTRODUCTION The primary purpose of this research study was to understand respective CEO cash compensation systems of TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. This research was based on three research questions. The first question was: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, is there a relationship between CEO cash compensation and firm size?. The second research question was: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, is there a relationship between CEO cash compensation and firm performance?. The third research question was: among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, is there a relationship between CEO cash compensation and CEO power?. The presentation of this thesis and its reasoned defense will be based on detailed discussion of the effect of firm size on the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. The previous research and current research results will be discussed and compared to understand clearly the nature and extent of correlations between sub variables. The end part of this chapter will be a presentation of new theories on the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, based on the combined results of TSX/S&P and NYSE

populations. Overall, this chapter presentation will demonstrate originality, quality, and the depth of research performed.

5.1 SYNTHESIS: CEO CASH COMPENSATION AND FIRM SIZE It was found that eleven of twelve statistical models had a p-value of less than .05, that is, they were statistically significant, therefore null hypotheses were rejected. The accepted null hypothesis was the relationship between CEO bonus and firm size in NYSE medium sized companies, indicated that there was no relationship found between them. Previous studies indicated that, there was a relationship between CEO compensation and firm size. For example, Gomez-Mejia and Barkema (1998) defined the relationship as a positive relationship between CEO compensation and firm size. Finkelstein and Hambrick (1996) found that firm size was related to the level of executive compensation. Sigler (2011) stated that firm size appeared to be the most significant factor in determining CEO compensation. Overall, previous and this research study results had a relationship between CEO cash compensation and firm size. However, this research study was conducted based on different firm sizes to understand their effects on the extent of the relationship between CEO cash, CEO bonus, and firm size.

The correlation results had shown there were positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total sales, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P 162 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

population, the correlation between CEO salary and total sales had decreased from .574 to .477 and then had decreased further to .297, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Likewise, in NYSE population, the correlations between CEO salary and total sales had decreased from .575 to .107 and then had increased to .422, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlations between bonus and total sales had decreased from .358 to .25 and then had increased to .32, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlations between bonus and total sales had decreased from .121 to .027 and then had decreased further to -.15, as firm size changed from small to medium and to large. Thus, these results had shown that firm size had a negative influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total sales, among TSX/S&P and NYSE companies. That is, the board expected the organization to operate at optimal efficiency as such, CEO actions became less of a milestone for board to reward CEO with high cash compensation, or board selected to reward the CEO on an equity basis. The study conducted by Tosi, Werner, Katz, and Gomez-Mejia (2000) found that the estimated correlation between CEO compensation and firm size was .643, which indicated that firm size accounts for over 40% of variance in CEO pay. In addition, they found that the adjusted composite correlation between change in CEO pay and change in firm size was .225, accounting for about 5% of variance in changes in CEO pay. Similarly, Deckop (1988) stated that CEO compensation was positively related to profit as a percentage of sales. Overall, previous 163 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

and this research study results were positively correlated between CEO cash compensation and total sales but the extent of positive correlations were in disagreement. In addition, this research study was conducted based on firm size perspective as such the results were more articulate.

The correlation results had shown there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total employees, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and total number of employees had decreased from .54 to .029 and then had decreased further to -.083, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Likewise, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and total number of employees had decreased from .542, to -.208, and then had increased to .407, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and total number of employees had decreased from .125 to -.019 and then had increased to .112, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and total number of employees had decreased from .121 to .027 and then had decreased further to -.15, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Therefore, these results had indicated that firm size had influenced negatively the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total number of employees. That is, the board expected the organization to operate at optimal efficiency as such, CEO actions became less of a 164 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

milestone for board to reward CEO with high cash compensation, or board selected to reward the CEO on an equity basis. The study conducted by Gomez-Mejia and Barkema (1998) found that CEOs cash incentives had a strong relationship with firm size as CEOs of large companies make higher income than CEOs of small companies. This was supported by Tosi and Gomez-Mejia (1994), who argued that measurement of firm size was a composite score of standardized values of reported total sales and number of employees. In addition, they believed that a host of structural factors and pragmatic problems make it difficult for corporations to effectively control executives, leading to compensation packages that are more closely tied to firm size than performance. Finkelstein and Boyd (1998) and Sanders and Carpenter (1998) reported correlations of .62, .50, and .42, respectively in their previous studies on CEO compensation and firm size. However, studies conducted by Belkaoui and Picur (1993), David, Koachhar, and Levitas (1998), and Gray and the Cannella (1997) found correlations as low as .107, .110, and .170, respectively. Overall, previous studies’ and this research study’s results were divergent. That is, the previous study's results were ranged from weak to good positive ratios, whereas, this research study’s results were ranged from weak negative to good positive ratios. In conclusion, statistical model results had led to the development of the first theory: there is a mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and firm size. In addition, the large firm size will have a negative impact on the correlation between them. That is, the board expected the organization to operate at optimal efficiency therefore, CEO actions became less of a 165 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

milestone for the board to reward the CEO with a high cash compensation, or the board selected to reward the CEO on an equity basis.

5.2 SYSTHESIS: CEO CASH COMPENSATION AND FIRM PERFORMANCE It was found that eleven of twelve statistical models had a p-value of less than .05, that is, they were statistically significant as such null hypotheses were rejected. The accepted null hypothesis was the relationship between CEO bonus and firm performance in NYSE large sized companies, indicated that there was no relationship found between them. The study conducted by Mehran (1995) reported that CEO pay structure was positively related to same year performance. This is supported by Gibbons and Murphy (1990), who found that CEOs salaries and bonuses were positively and significantly related to firm performance. This is further supported by Blanchard, Lopez-de-Silanes and Shleifer (1994), Iyengar, Raghavan J. (2000), and Bertrand and Mullainathan (2001), who found that CEO cash compensation had increased when firm profits rise for reasons that have nothing to do with managers’ efforts. On the other hand, Loomis (1982) argued that CEO pay was unrelated to performance. This is supported by Henderson and Fredrickson (1996) and Sanders and Carpenter (1998, 2002), who believed that CEO pay might be unrelated to performance but it related to the organizational complexity that they managed. Overall, previous research and this research’s results had found the relationship between CEO cash 166 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

compensation and firm performance, but the extent of correlations between sub variables were divergent due to different sample size, population, statistical method, and variables used in the statistical model. In addition, previous studies had rarely used firm size as a control variable to understand the relationship between CEO compensation and firm performance.

The correlation results had shown there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and return on assets, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and ROA had increased from .074 to .100 and then had decreased to .025, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Likewise, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and ROA had increased from -.068 to .005 and then had increased further to .108, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. However, reversed pattern was observed in TSX/S&P population for CEO bonus, that is, the correlation between bonus and ROA had decreased from .148 to .012 and then had decreased further to -.011, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. However, in NYSE population, it had increased from .039 to .117 and then had increased further to .205, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, large firm size had increased the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and ROA. In contrast, in NYSE population, large firm size had decreased the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and ROA. As such, firm size effect on the 167 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

correlation between them will depend on design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. The study conducted by Werner, Katz and Gomez-Mejia (2000) found that estimated true correlation between CEO pay and ROA was 0.117. Leone et al. (2006) found that there was no difference in CEO pay performance sensitivity to changes in ROA based on positive and negative stock returns. However, Antle and Smith (1986) found a strong correlation between CEO compensation and ROA. They reasoned their finding to direct links between ROA and CEO pay from CEO contract. This was supported by Shaw and Zhang (2010), who found that CEO cash compensation was significantly positively correlated with return on assets and stock returns, indicated that CEOs of better performing firms were rewarded with higher pay. On the other hand, Mehran (1995) found that ROA was inversely related to percentage of CEOs’ total cash compensation. Overall, previous studies and this research study results were divergent. That is, previous studies had shown inconsistency in their results ranged from weak negative to strong positive correlations between them, whereas, this research study results found weak positive ratios. In conclusion, these findings had led to the development of a second new theory: there is a weak positive correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on assets. In addition, the large firm size will have a mixed impact on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on assets.

168 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

In TSX/S&P population, there were positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and ROE. However, in NYSE population, it was found that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and ROE. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and ROE had decreased from .136 to .039 and then had increased to .186, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In contrast, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and ROE had increased from -.148 to .015 and then had decreased to .012, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and ROE had decreased from .134 to .075 and then had increased to .013, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. However, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and ROE had increased from -.051 to .065 and then had decreased to -.041, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, the large firm size had a positive impact on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on equity. The study conducted by Finkelstein and Boyd (1998) found that the correlations between ROE, CEO cash compensation, and long-term pay were .13 and -.03, respectively. Similarly, Johnson (1982) found that the correlation between executive pay and ROE was .003. On the other hand, Belliveaus, O’Reilly, and Wade (1996) found that the correlation between ROE and CEO pay was .410. This was supported by Mehran (1995), who found that CEO compensation in companies was relatively sensitive to firm performance tend to produce high returns for shareholders than in companies the correlation between CEO 169 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

pay and firm performance was weak. Shaw and Zhang (2010) found that changes in CEO cash compensation had a significantly positive correlation with stock returns, indicated CEOs of better performing firms were rewarded with high pay. On the other hand, Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989) found that ROE was unrelated to salary but positively related to bonus. Overall, previous studies and this research study’s results had shown there was a weak mixed correlation between CEO compensation and return on equity. That is, the correlations were ranged from weak negative to weak positive ratios. However, this research study was conducted based on firm size perspective, as such, the results were more articulate. In conclusion, this research finding had led to the development of third new theory: there is a weak mixed correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on equity. That is, the correlation between them will depend on the importance of return on equity on CEO performance criteria. In addition, the large firm size will have a mixed impact on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on equity.

The correlation results had shown there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and EPS, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and EPS had decreased from .036 to .005 and then had decreased further to -.10, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In contrast, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and EPS had increased from -.052 to .103 and then had increased further to 170 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

.207, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO Bonus and EPS had increased from -.008 to .054 and then had decreased to -.057, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Similarly, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO Bonus and EPS had decreased from .05 to -.008 and then had increased to .059, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, the effect of firm size on the correlation between them had depended on the design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. It was understood from the literature that, previous research studies had lacked publications on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and the EPS. However, EPS was indirectly discussed with studies on firm earnings, firm accounting policies, stock compensation, and CEO wealth. For example, Gaver et al. (1995) and Holthausen et al. (1995a) found that executives manage earnings downward when their reported performance exceeds maximum, but had shown that executives managed earnings upward when below threshold. Conyon et al. (2000) and Murphy (1999, 2000) believed that compensation contracts linking rewards to performance provide executives with direct and potentially powerful incentives to manage reported EPS. Indjejikian and Nanda (2002) believed that executive may also smooth performance in the incentive zone if pay for performance relation was concave above standard but convex below. Gerhart et al. (2009) believed that earnings were imperfectly related to shareholder return primarily due to the fact that CEO specific wealth was generated via equity positions. Overall, previous studies had 171 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

discussed the correlations between EPS and CEO pay on a theoretical basis as such had lacked empirical results to compare with this research findings. In conclusion, this research finding had led to the development of fourth new theory: there is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and earnings per share. That is, the correlation between them will depend on the firm’s earnings and extent of short-term CEO incentives. In addition, the effect of the firm size on the correlation between them will depend on the design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market.

The correlation results had shown that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CFPS, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO Salary and CFPS had increased from -.02 to .028 and then had decreased to -.008, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In contrast, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and CFPS had increased from .05 to .142 and then had increased further to .158, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CFPS had decreased from .053 to -.022 and then had increased to -.015, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Similarly, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CFPS had increased from -.066 to .029 and then had decreased to -.012, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, firm size effect on the correlation 172 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

between them had depended on design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. The study conducted by Iyengar (2000) found that the level of CEO’s cash compensation was positively related to the firms’ level of operating cash flows but was unrelated to either accounting or market performance. However, Kumar et al. (1993) and Natarajan (1996) didn’t find a significant association between cash flows from operations and CEO compensation after controlling for net income. In contrast, Yang et al. (2006) found that cash flows from operations were compensation contract relevant. Overall, previous studies and this research study’s results were divergent. That is, previous studies had found a positive correlation between CEO compensation and cash flow per share but the extent of correlation was in disagreement. However, this research study’s findings had ranged from weak negative to weak positive ratios. In conclusion, this research results had led to the development of fifth new theory: there is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and cash flow per share. That is, the correlation between them will depend on the firm’s balance of operating cash flow and board decision to reward based on extent of cash over stock options. In addition, the effect of firm size on the correlation between them will depend on design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market.

The correlation results had shown that there were positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and NPM, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and NPM had increased from .077 to 173 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

.182 and then had increased further to .427, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Similarly, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and NPM had increased from -.123 to .118 and then had increased further to .159, as firm size had changed from small to medium and large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and NPM had increased from .111 to .142 and then had increased further to .527, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and NPM had increased from -.076 to .23 and then had decreased to .124, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, firm size had a positive effect on the correlation between the CEO cash compensation and NPM. The study conducted by Healy (1985), Lambert and Larcker (1987), Pavlick et al. (1983), and Verrechia (1986) stated that incentive scheme based on accounting performance measure appear to influence accounting earnings. Lambert and Larcker (1987) argued that firms place relatively more weight on market performance than on accounting performance measures in compensation contracts for situations in which variance of accounting performance was high relative to market performance measures; the firm was experiencing a high rate of growth; and manager’s holdings of the firm’s stock were low. Jensen and Murphy (1990) found that the average pay increase for a CEO whose shareholders gain $400 million was $37,300, compared to an average pay increase of $26,500 for a CEO whose shareholders lose $400 million. Blanchard, Lopez-de-Silanes and Shleifer (1994), and Bertrand and Mullainathan (2001) found that CEO cash compensation increased when 174 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

firm profits rose for reasons that had nothing to do with managers’ efforts. Tosi, Werner, Katz and Gomez-Mejia (2000) found that the overall ratio of change in CEO pay and change in financial performance is 0.203, an accounting for about 4% of the variance. Healy (1985), Lambert and Larcker (1987), Pavlick et al. (1983), and Verrechia (1986) believed that incentive scheme based on accounting performance measure appear to influence accounting earnings. On the other hand, Antle and Smith (1986) found no relation between CEO cash compensation and firm performance. Overall, previous and this research studies results had found positive correlations but the extent of correlations between them were divergent. That is, previous research studies had a weak positive correlation between them, whereas, this research study findings ranged from weak to good positive ratios. In conclusion, these research findings had led to the development of a sixth new theory, there is a positive correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and net profit margin. In addition, the large firm size will have a positive influence towards the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and net profit margin.

The correlation results had shown that in the TSX/S&P population, there were positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CSO. However, in NYSE population, it was found that there were mixed correlations between them. In the TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and CSO had increased from .421 to .294 and then had decreased to .267, as firm size had changed from small to 175 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

medium and to large. Similarly, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and CSO had increased from -.085 to .192 and then had decreased to -.16, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CSO had decreased from .491 to .240 and then had increased to .336, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In contrast, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CSO had increased from .045 to .18 and then had decreased to -.076, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, the large firm size had a negative impact on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CSO, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. It was understood from the literature review that, previous research studies had lacked the focus on the relationship between CEO cash compensation and common stocks outstanding. Therefore, the results of the correlations between CEO cash compensation and common stocks outstanding were introduced for the first time in executive compensation literature. In conclusion, this research study’s results had led to the development of seventh new theory: there is a mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and common stocks outstanding. That is, the correlation between them will depend on firm’s equity position and ownership structure. In addition, the large firm size will have a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and common stocks outstanding.

The correlation results had shown that there was a positive correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and BVCSO, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and BVCSO had decreased from .601 to .330 and then had decreased further to .283, as firm size had changed from small to medium, and to the Large. Likewise, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and BVCSO had decreased from .243 to .04 and then had increased to .23, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and BVCSO had decreased from .718 to .370 and then had increased to .425, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and BVCSO had decreased from .407 to .129 and then had decreased further to .124, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, it had shown that, a large firm size had a negative influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and BVCSO. It was understood from the literature, previous research studies had lacked focus towards understanding the correlation between CEO cash compensation and the book value of common stocks outstanding. Therefore, the results of the correlations between CEO cash compensation and the book value of common stocks outstanding were introduced for the first time in executive compensation literature. In conclusion, this research study’s results had led to the development of an eighth new theory: there is a positive correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and book value of common stocks outstanding. In addition, the large firm size will have a negative influence towards the 177 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and book value of common stocks outstanding.

The results had shown that in TSX/S&P population there were positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and MVCSO. However, in NYSE population, it was found that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and MVCSO. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and MVCSO had decreased from .627 to .310 and then had decreased further to .263, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Similarly, in NYSE population, the correlation between salary and MVCSO had increased from .148 to .194 and then had increased further to .462, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and MVCSO had decreased from .663 to .211 and then had increased to .340, as firm size had changed from small to medium and large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and MVCSO had increased from -.02 to -.015 and then had further increased to .100, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, the results had shown that firm size had mixed impact on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and MVCSO. That is, the relationship between them will depend on CEO contract and design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. The study conducted by Murphy (1985) and Coughlan and Schmidt (1985) found that change in executive compensation was positively related to changes in 178 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

current year stock price. In addition, they argued that although the relationship between them had statistically significant, however much of the variance in executive compensation remains unexplained. On the other hand, compensation consultants such as Bickford (1981), Ellig (1984), Rich and Larson (1984), and Decktop (1987) found that although stock prices were very sensitive to external events as such may have little to do with how efficiently a firm was ran and controlled by management. Therefore, they believed that it was more appropriate to use profitability measure as a proxy for firm performance. Jensen and Murphy (1990) and Hubbard and Palia (1995) favored performance to be measured with stockholder value to reflect CEO wealth. Overall, previous studies and this research study results were divergent. That is, previous studies had found a positive relationship between CEO compensation and MVCSO, however, this research study findings were mixed, that is, the correlations between them ranged from weak negative to good positive ratios. In conclusion this research study’s results had led to the development of ninth theory: there is a mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and market value of common stocks outstanding. That is, the correlation between them will depend on board decision on the extent of cash over stock compensation. In addition, the effect of firm size on the correlation between them will depend on design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market.

5.3 SYNTHESIS: CEO CASH COMPENSATION AND CEO POWER It was found that ten of twelve statistical models had a p-value of less than .05, that is, they were statistically significant as such null hypotheses were rejected. The accepted null hypotheses were the relationships between CEO bonus and firm performance in NYSE small and medium sized companies indicated that there were no relationships found between them. The study conducted by Aggarwal and Samwick (1999) and Bebchuk, Fried and Walker (2002) found that CEO power was widely believed to vary in cross section and over time. The CEOs with greater stock ownership, who possess greater tenure, and who serve at firms with larger or less independent boards, are likely to have greater power. The CEOs with more established reputations or whose actions are more difficult to judge are more likely to possess greater influence. In addition, Bebchuk, Fried and Walker (2002) believed that CEOs influence their own compensation to extract economic rents from shareholders. Overall, previous studies and this research study’s results had found a relationship between CEO cash compensation and CEO power, but the extent of correlations between sub-variables were divergent due to different sample size, population, statistical method, and variables used in the statistical model. In addition, previous studies had rarely used firm size as a control variable to understand the relationship between CEO compensation and CEO power.

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

The results had shown that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO age, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and CEO age had decreased from .106 to .084 and then had decreased further to .08, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and CEO age had increased from .096 to .367 and then had decreased to .136, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CEO age had decreased from .173 to -.04 and then further had decreased to -.05, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. However, in NYSE population, it had increased from -.162 to -.102 and then had increased further to -.051, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. As such, in TSX/S&P population, the firm size had a negative influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO age. However, in NYSE population, the firm size had a positive influence on the relationship between CEO salary and CEO age. In contrast, the firm size had a mixed influence on the correlations between CEO bonus and CEO age. Overall, these results had indicated that CEO salary had a weak positive correlation with CEO age. That is, CEO salary had increased based on CEO experience with the firm. The CEO bonus had a weak positive correlation with CEO age. That is, it was based on primary factors such as firm performance and achievement of strategic goals. In addition, firm size had a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO age. The study 181 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

conducted by Deckop (1988) argued that the CEO’s age had little effect on CEO compensation. Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989) found an inverted U-shaped relationship between CEO age and CEO cash compensation. That is, CEO cash compensation had increased up to 59 years age, beyond which real cash earnings had decreased on a consistent basis till retirement. This is supported by McKnight et al. (2000) found that CEO compensation was positively related to age, but it had provided diminishing returns on marginal pay as age increased. This effect was so profound that marginal CEO compensation level decreased till CEO retirement age. Overall, previous research studies and this research study’s results were found to be divergent. That is, previous studies had found an inverted U-shaped correlation results, whereas, this research study’s results were ranged from weak negative to weak positive ratios. In conclusion, this research study’s results had led to the development of tenth theory: there is a weak to moderate positive correlation between CEO salary and CEO age, perhaps due to experience, and there is a weak positive correlation between CEO bonus and CEO age, indicating that a bonus is rewarded based on the firm’s performance and achievement of strategic goals. In addition, that firm size will have a negative influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO age.

The correlation results had shown that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total stock holdings, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and CEO total 182 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

stock holdings had increased from -.099 to .034 and then had increased further to .171, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and CEO total stocks had increased from -.162 to .111 and then had decreased to .033, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CEO total stock holding had increased from -.14 to .155 and then had increased further to .169, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Similarly, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CEO total stock holdings had increased from -.178 to -.155 and then had increased further to -.012, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, firm size had a positive influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total stock holdings, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. Therefore, these results had indicated that there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total stock holdings. That is, the correlations between them were dependent on the extent of cash over stock options rewards, and design and culture of the CEO cash compensation system of a particular market. The study conducted by Jensen and Murphy (1989) found that CEO stock ownership had not played any role towards pay performance sensitivity in CEO cash compensation. This is supported by Murphy and Jensen (1990), who found that there was a small and insignificant existence of positive coefficient of CEO total stock ownership, which implied that the relation between CEO compensation and firm performance was independent of the executive’s stock holdings. The studies conducted 183 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

by Agrawal & Knoeber (1996), Himmelberg et al. (1999), and Demsetz and Villalonga (2001), all had failed to find any relationship between firm value and the executives’ equity stakes. However, Ungson and Steers (1984) found that firms where the CEO had large stock ownership, longest tenure, control of top management team or other means, a CEO can largely shape his or her pay. This was supported by Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989), who believed that executives who own significant portions of their firms are likely to control not only operating decisions but board decisions as well. Such executives would hence be in a position to essentially set their own compensation. In addition, a study conducted by Mehran (1995) found a positive relationship between percentages of total compensation in cash (salary and bonus) and percentages of shares held by managers. Overall, previous studies and this research study’s results were found to be divergent. That is, previous studies had found from nil to strong correlations between CEO compensation and CEO total stock holdings, however, this research study’s findings ranged from weak negative to weak positive ratios. In conclusion, this research study’s results had led to development of eleventh new theory: there is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total stock holdings. That is, the correlation will depend on board decision to reward based on extent of cash over stock options, and design and culture of CEO cash compensation system in a particular market. In addition, firm size will have a positive influence towards the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total stock holdings. 184 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

The correlation results had shown that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. It had shown that in TSX/S&P population, there were positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total value of stocks. However, in NYSE population, there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and total value of CEO stocks had decreased from .218 to .031 and then had increased to .347, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and total value of CEO stocks had increased from .236 to -.041 and then had increased further to .154, as firm size had changed from small to medium to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and total value of CEO stocks had decreased from .215 to .106 and then had increased to .226, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. However, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and total value of CEO stocks had decreased from -.134 to -.137 and then had increased to .06, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, the large firm size had a positive influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. Therefore, these results had indicated that there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks. That is, the nature of correlations between them was dependent on design and culture of CEO compensation of a particular market. The literature review 185 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

had indicated there was only one research study conducted on the correlation between CEO compensation and total value of CEO stocks. That is, the study conducted by Jensen and Murphy (1990), who found that, the total value of CEO stocks were immaterial towards determining CEO compensation. In conclusion, this research study’s results had led to development of twelfth new theory: there is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks. The nature of the correlations was influenced by market price of the stock, and design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. In addition, the large firm size will have a positive correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks.

The correlation results had shown that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO tenure, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and CEO tenure had increased from .097 to .264 and then had decreased to .210, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between salary and CEO tenure had increased from .074 to .232 and then had decreased to .178, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between bonus and CEO tenure had increased from .053 to .138 and then had decreased to -.037, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. However, in NYSE population, it had increased from -.086 to -.064 and then had further 186 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

increased to -.019, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, it was found that large firm size had a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO tenure, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. The study conducted by Murphy (1986) found that CEO tenure was influenced by CEO performance-contingent pay. In addition, he believed that a long CEO tenure may promote a principal’s trust of an agent. Hermalin and Weisbach (1998), Bebchuk and Fried (2003), and Larcker and Rusticus (2004) found that CEOs over time acquire greater managerial power. Sigler (2011) argued that tenure of CEO appeared to be one of significant variables in determining the level of CEO compensation. However, Finkelstein and Hambrick (1989) stated that a monotonic relationship was not found between CEO tenure and CEO pay. Overall, previous studies and this research study had generally agreed that there was a mixed correlation between CEO compensation and CEO tenure. However, this research study was conducted based on firm size perspective, therefore, the results were more articulate. In conclusion, this research study results had led to the development of thirteenth new theory, there is a weak positive correlation between CEO salary and CEO tenure; and there is a weak mixed correlation between CEO bonus and CEO tenure, that is, the correlation between them will depend on CEO performance and board appreciation of CEO tenure. In addition, firm size will have a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO tenure.

The correlation results had shown that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO turnover, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and CEO turnover had decreased from -.063 to -.159 and then had increased to .105, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and CEO turnover had increased from -.132 to -.225 and then had decreased to .166, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CEO turnover had decreased from .123 to -.088 and then had increased to -.027, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. Similarly, in NYSE population, the correlation between CEO bonus and CEO turnover had decreased from .09 to .02 and then had further decreased to -.002, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, firm size had a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO turnover, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. The study conducted by Jensen and Murphy (1990) found that CEO turnover probabilities were negatively and significantly related to changes in shareholder wealth. In addition, they concluded that the dismissals were simply not an important source of CEO incentives. Murphy and Oyer (2002) found that outside CEO replacements receive higher compensation than insider CEO replacements. That is, outside replacement CEOs, at median, typically make $335,360 more than their predecessors while insiders were typically paid only $126,156 more than their predecessors. Brickley (2003) concluded that firm 188 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

performance continues to explain very little variation of CEO turnover. Overall, previous studies and this research study results were divergent. That is, previous studies had found a positive correlation between CEO compensation and CEO turnover, however, this research study’s findings were mixed: that is, the correlation between them depended on CEO performance and the board appreciation of the length of CEO’s service. In conclusion, this research study’s results had led to the development of a fourteenth new theory: there is a weak positive correlation between CEO salary and CEO tenure, and there is a weak mixed correlation between CEO bonus and CEO tenure, that is, the correlation between them will depend on CEO performance and board appreciation of the CEO service length. In addition, the firm size will have a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO tenure.

The correlation results had shown that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% management ownership, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlations between CEO Salary and 5% management ownership had increased from -.124 to .045 and then had decreased to .001, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and 5% management ownership had decreased from -.079 to -.238 and then had increased to -.05, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between bonus and 5% management ownership had increased from .106 to .154 and then had decreased to 189 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

.101, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, it had increased from -.09 to -.047 and then had increased further to .143, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In addition, the large firm size had a positive influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% management ownership. The study conducted by Boudreaux (1973), Plamer (1973), and Gomez-Mejia, Tosi, and Hinkin (1987) found that when there was no external equity holder with at least 5% of the stock, firm is called management controlled firm. Bertrand and Mullainathan (2000) found that CEOs in firms that lacked five percent or larger stock ownership tend to receive more luck based pay, that is, pay associated with profit increases that were entirely generated by external factors rather than by managers’ efforts. In addition, they also found firms that lacked large external stakeholders; cash compensation of CEOs was reduced less when their option-based compensation was increased. Jensen and Murphy (1989) found that executive inside stock ownership could provide incentives, but these holdings were not generally controlled by corporate boards and the majority of top executives hold small personal equity ownership. Overall, previous studies and this research study’s results were found to be divergent. That is, previous studies had found a positive correlation between CEO cash compensation and 5% management ownership, whereas, this research study had found a mixed correlation between CEO cash compensation and 5% management ownership, depended on firm size and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. In conclusion, this research study’s results had led to the development of a 190 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

fifteenth new theory: there is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% management ownership, indicating the correlation between them will depend on the ownership structure, and design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. In addition, the large firm size will have a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% management ownership.

The correlation results had shown that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% individual/institutional ownership, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between CEO salary and 5% individual/Institutional ownership had decreased from .309 to -.062 and then had increased to .018, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In NYSE population, the correlation between CEO salary and 5% individual/institutional ownership had decreased from .096 to -.03 and then had decreased further to -.176, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. In TSX/S&P population, the correlation between bonus and 5% individual/institutional ownership had increased from .07 to -.18 and then had increased to -.08, as firm size had changed from small to medium and to large. However, in NYSE population, it had decreased from -.067 to .001 and then had decreased further to -.015. In addition, the large firm size had a negative influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% individual/institutional ownership. The study conducted by Gomez-Mejia, Tosi, and Hinkin (1987) found that executives in externally controlled firms receive more 191 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

compensation for performance and less for scale of operation than their counterparts in firms without dominant stockholders. In addition, they believed that outside dominant stockholders view firms primarily as investments and have power and incentive to align compensation of CEOs with performance of firms. Lambert et al. (1987) found a negative relation between CEO compensation and 5% of outstanding stocks, when an outside block holder owns at least 5% of outstanding stocks. This is supported by David, Kochar and Levitas (1998), who found that CEO pay was negatively correlated with presence of pressure resistant institutional investors and positively correlated with presence of pressure sensitive ones. This is also supported by Cyert, Kang and Kumar (2002), who found a negative relationship between equity ownership of largest shareholder and amount of CEO compensation. In addition, doubling the percentage ownership of the outside shareholder reduced non-salary compensation by 12-14%. That is, equity ownership of the largest external shareholder had a strong negative relation to the size of CEO equity compensation and total variable pay. Overall, previous and this research study results had agreed that there was a negative relationship between CEO cash compensation and 5% individual/institutional ownership. In conclusion, this research study results had led to the development of sixteenth and final theory, there is a weak negative correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% individual/Institutional ownership. In addition, the large firm size will have a negative influence on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and 5% individual/institutional ownership. 192 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

The correlation results had found that there was a relationship between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, except for the relationship between CEO bonus and CEO power in NYSE medium sized companies. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak to moderate positive correlations between CEO salary and CEO age. However, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak negative correlations between CEO salary and CEO age. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus and CEO total stocks. That is, the correlation was depended on board decision to reward based on extent of cash over stock options, and design and culture of CEO cash compensation system of a particular market. In TSX/S&P population, it was found that there were positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total value of stocks. In NYSE population, it was found that there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total value of stocks. That is, the nature of this correlation was depended on the market price of the stock, and design and culture of the CEO compensation system in a particular market. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO turnover. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak negative correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO turnover. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% 193 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

management ownership. That is, the nature and extent of correlation will be based on design and culture of the CEO compensation system in a particular market. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak negative correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% individual/institutional ownership. The CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, and 5% management ownership had a positive firm size influence on CEO cash compensation. The CEO age, CEO turnover, and 5% individual/institutional ownership had a negative firm size influence on CEO cash compensation. Compared to previous studies, few circumstances the results were in agreement; some instances there were no previous studies to relate with; and in other cases previous results had lacked empirical results to compare clearly with these research findings.

5.4 CEO CASH COMPENSATION MODELS Based on the statistical results, there are four CEO cash compensation models have been developed among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. The purpose of these models is to demonstrate the most influential variables that affect CEO salary and bonus in TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. The following figure 2 shows the CEO salary models in respective TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. The TSX/S&P CEO salary model consists of: total revenues, return on equity, net profit margin, common stocks outstanding, the market value of common stocks outstanding, CEO age, CEO total value of stocks outstanding, and CEO tenure. On the other hand, 194 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

the NYSE CEO salary model consists of: total revenues, earnings per share, cash flow per share, net profit margin, common stocks outstanding, the market value of common stocks outstanding, CEO age, and CEO total value of stocks outstanding. FIGURE 5 TSX/S&P & NYSE Salary Models !

CHAPTER 6 - CONCLUSION AND FUTURE STUDY 6.1 SUMMARY OF RESEARCH PROCESS This research study was conducted to understand the nature and extent of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. In addition, to clarify shareholders, investors, and the public on determinants of CEO cash compensation. That is, to explain them CEO cash compensation was not fully dependent upon accounting performance rather it involved a set of complex variables that includes firm size, firm performance, CEO power (corporate governance), and other factors such as, the achievement of strategic goals, ownership effect, market culture, and provisions of CEO contract.

This research study was based on three research questions. The first research question was, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, what relationship is there between CEO cash compensation and firm size?. The second research question was, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, what relationship is there between CEO cash compensation and firm performance?. The third research question was, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, what relationship is there between CEO cash compensation and CEO power?. This research was historical and numerical 203 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

therefore, were required collecting, counting, and classifying data, and producing clear results. It also required a high level of objectivity and accuracy, and a process to include method of deductive reasoning by use of measurement tools. In addition, it required to only establish associations among variables using effect statistics such as correlations. As such, a quantitative research method was selected for this research study. The longitudinal study was selected to collect six years of data from 2005 to 2010. The stratified sample method was selected for this research study since it required equal stratum towards determining sample sizes. That is, this research study aimed to understand the effect of firm sizes on the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations.

The total of two hundred and forty companies was selected from TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies. Each population had consisted of one hundred and twenty companies. Each sub population or firm size had a sample size of forty companies. The sample companies were selected from the websites Canadianbusiness.com and NYSE.com. The small size companies were selected based on total revenues of up to $500 million. The medium size companies were selected based on total revenues of over $500 million and up to $2 billion. The large size companies were selected based on total revenues of over $2 billion. These specific ranges were created to ensure

204 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

maximum number of companies from diverse industry background were eligible for stratified sampling.

A total of thirty six statistical models was developed and tested between the subdependent variables of CEO cash compensation and the independent variables of firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, to address three research questions of this study. The sub-dependent variables of CEO cash compensation were salary and bonus. The sub-dependent variables of firm size were total sales and total employees. The sub-dependent variables of firm performance were return on equity, return on assets, earnings per share, cash flow per share, net profit margin, common stocks outstanding, book value of per common share, and market value per common stock. The sub-dependent variables of CEO power were CEO age, CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, CEO turnover, 5% management ownership, and 5% individual/institutional ownership.

The validity determined whether research truly measures what it was intended to measure or how accurate research results had been. It was based on face validity, content validity, criterion-related validity, construct validity, convergent validity, divergent validity, discriminant validity, statistical conclusion validity, and external validity. The face validity was based on designing a survey form to collect relevant data from companies for sampling. The content validity had been based on fourteen structured 205 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

quantitative questionnaires on CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power. The criterion validity was represented by firm performance, firm size, and CEO power. The construct validity was represented by sub variables of CEO cash compensation, firm performance, and CEO power. The convergent validity was assessed by reviewing t-tests for factor loadings. The divergent validity was not applicable due to survey questions were not related and opposite to each other. The discriminant validity was based on minimum and maximum values of sub variables. The statistical validity was based on correlation results among variables of CEO cash compensation, firm performance, firm size, and CEO power. In addition, a confidence interval of ninety five percent was assigned to measure the results. The external validity was based on analyses of variance and correlation results. The reliability of data was based on the assumption of repeatability. The data for this research study was directly obtained from SEDAR and EDGAR databases, which were considered highly accurate, complete, and verified.

The survey method was selected to collect historical data. The survey was designed into five sections. The first section of survey was based on company background. The second section of survey was based on company performance. The third section of survey was based on CEO remuneration. The fourth section of survey was based on CEO profile. The final and fifth section of survey was based on the firm’s ownership. The survey had consisted of fourteen structured questions. The documents that were 206 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

examined to collect corporate data comprised of annual reports, management and information circulars, audited annual financial statements, and proxies and information statements.

The data analysis for this research study was based on two phases. The first phase of data analysis was performed after the surveys were completed that includes checking for accuracy and completeness of survey forms, and data transformation from survey forms to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and to then on the SPSS data sheets. The second phase of data analysis consisted of performing multivariate analysis in SPSS software. That is, the linear regression test was conducted to analyze data. During the first phase of data analysis, data were transferred manually from survey forms to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets for electronic recording. In the Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, columns and rows were labeled according to variables. Each model’s data were recorded on separate sheets to ensure the data were free from grouping error. Each data sheet was checked to ensure all survey questions were answered. In addition, each data sheet was checked for outliers (odd data) by observing, sorting, and analyzing marginal variances. Once they were found, they were then cross referenced to survey forms, to verify accuracy. To ensure each company consisted of six years (from 2005 to 2010) of data, “company” column was sorted by year. In addition, financial ratios were formatted to four decimal places and CEO salary and bonus information were formatted to zero decimal places, to achieve accuracy in the statistical results. The 207 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

second phase of data analysis consisted of copying and pasting data from Microsoft Excel spreadsheets to SPSS data sheets. In SPSS, data sheets were checked for accuracy and completeness by cross-referenced to Microsoft Excel data sheets. The dependent and independent variables, regression coefficients, residuals, plots, predicted values, and distances were analyzed from the linear regression test. The outliers identified through “caseware diagnostic” test were removed by deleting data rows, and accordingly retests were conducted till no outliers were found in the statistical model. The data were then analyzed in nine steps. The first step consisted of an analysis of mean and standard deviation of each variable. The second step consisted of a Pearson correlation test and test of significance. The third step consisted of regression (R2) and change statistics tests. The fourth step consisted of an analysis of variance (ANOVA) test, F-test, residual test, and p-value or confidence interval test. The fifth step consisted of an unstandardized and standardized coefficient tests, t test, and collinearity statistics test. The sixth step consisted of correlations and covariance tests. The seventh step consisted of an eigenvalue, condition index and variance proportion tests. The eighth step consisted of a predicted value, standard predicted value, Cook’s distance, and Mahal distance tests. The ninth and final step consisted of graphical tests on regression-standardized residual, scatter plot, and partial regression residual plot. After the completion of data analysis, all the model test results were saved separately in the SPSS database before they were downloaded to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets for

the format. Once tables and graphs were formatted for size, they were copied from Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and pasted onto this research paper in Appendix D. 6.1.1 Conclusion – CEO Cash Compensation and Firm Size The results (provided in Appendix E section 1.1 to 1.12) indicated that there were relationships between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and firm size, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, except for the relationship between CEO bonus and firm size in medium sized NYSE companies. In TSX/S&P population, model regression (R2) was ranged from weak to moderate ratios across all eight firm sizes. Similarly, in NYSE population, model regression (R2) was ranged from weak to moderate ratios across all eight firm sizes.

In the TSX/S&P population, the correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus and total sales were ranged from moderate to good positive ratios. However, the results also indicated that firm size had a negative influence on the correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total sales. The correlations between CEO salary and total number of employees were ranged from weak negative to good positive ratios. The correlations between CEO bonus and total number of employees were ranged from weak negative to weak positive ratios. However, the results also indicated that firm size had a negative influence on the correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total number of employees. In the NYSE population, the correlations between CEO salary 209 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

and total sales were ranged from weak to good positive ratios. The correlations between CEO bonus and total sales were ranged from weak to moderate positive ratios. However, the results also indicated that firm size had a negative influence on the correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total sales. The correlations between CEO salary and total employees were ranged from weak negative to good positive ratios. The correlations between CEO bonus and total employees had weak negative to weak positive ratios. However, the results indicated firm size had a negative influence on the correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total employees. Therefore, these results had led to the development of first new theory: there is a mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and firm size. In addition, the large firm size will have a negative impact on the correlation between them. That is, the board expected the organization to operate at optimal efficiency as such, CEO actions became less of a milestone for board to reward CEO with high cash compensation, or board selected to reward the CEO on an equity basis. 6.1.2 Conclusion – CEO Cash Compensation and Firm Performance The results (provided in Appendix E section 2.1 to 2.12) indicated that there were relationships between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and firm performance, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, except for the relationship between CEO bonus and firm performance in large sized NYSE companies. In TSX/S&P population, model regression

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

(R2) was ranged from weak to good ratios. In NYSE population, model regression (R2) was ranged from weak to moderate ratios.

Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and return on assets. In TSX/S&P population, it was found that there were weak correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and return on equity. In NYSE population, it was found that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and return on equity. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and earnings per share. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and cash flow per share. In TSX/S&P population, it was found that there were weak to good positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and net profit margin. In NYSE population, it was found that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and net profit margin. In TSX/S&P population, it was found that there were weak to moderate positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and common stocks outstanding. In NYSE population, it was found that there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and common stocks outstanding. In TSX/S&P population, it was found that there were moderate to good correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and book value of common stocks outstanding. In NYSE population, it was found that there were weak to moderate correlations between 211 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

CEO salary, CEO bonus, and book value of common stocks outstanding. In TSX/S&P population, it was found that there were weak to good positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and market value of common stocks outstanding. In NYSE population, it was found that there were weak negative to weak positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and market value of common stocks outstanding.

In addition, return on equity, earnings per share, and market value of common stocks outstanding had a mixed firm size influence on CEO cash compensation. That is, they were dependent upon the design of CEO contract and culture of a particular market. The return on assets, cash flow per share, and net profit margin had a positive firm size influence on CEO cash compensation. The common stocks outstanding and book value of common stocks outstanding had a negative firm size influence on CEO cash compensation. Overall, these results had led to the development of eight new theories:

1. There is a weak positive correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on assets. In addition, the large firm size will have a positive impact on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on assets.

2. There is a weak mixed correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on equity. That is, the correlation between them will depend on the importance of return on equity on CEO performance criteria. In addition, the large firm size will 212 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

have a mixed impact on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on equity.

3. There is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and earnings per share. That is, the correlation between them will depend on the firm’s earnings and extent of short-term CEO incentives. In addition, the effect of firm size on the correlation between them will depend on design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market.

4. There is a weak mixed correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on equity. That is, the correlation between them will depend on the importance of return on equity on CEO performance criteria. In addition, the large firm size will have a positive impact on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and return on equity.

5. There is a positive correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and net profit margin. In addition, the large firm size will have a positive influence towards the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and net profit margin.

6. There is a mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and common stocks outstanding. That is, the correlation between them will depend on the 213 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

firm’s equity position and ownership structure. In addition, the large firm size will have a negative influence on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and common stocks outstanding.

7. There is a positive correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and book value of common stocks outstanding. In addition, the large firm size will have a mixed influence towards the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and book value of common stocks outstanding.

8. There is a mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and market value of common stocks outstanding. That is, the correlation between them will depend on board decision to reward based on extent of cash over stock options. In addition, the effect of firm size on the correlation between them will depend on design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. 6.1.3 Conclusion – CEO Cash Compensation and CEO Power The results (provided in Appendix E section 3.1 to 3.12) indicated that there were relationships between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, except for the relationship between CEO bonus and CEO power in small and medium sized NYSE companies. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, model regression (R2) was characterized as weak ratios. 214 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak to moderate positive correlations between CEO salary and CEO age. However, among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak negative correlations between CEO salary and CEO age. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus and CEO total stock holdings. That is, the correlations between them were dependent upon the board decision to reward based on extent of cash over stock options. In addition, design and culture of CEO cash compensation system of a particular market. In TSX/S&P population, it was found that there were positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks. In NYSE population, it was found that there were mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks. That is, the correlations were dependent upon the market price of the stock, and design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak positive correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO turnover. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak negative correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO turnover. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak mixed correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% management ownership. That is, the correlations were dependent upon ownership structure of the firm. In addition, design and culture of 215 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

the CEO compensation system of a particular market. Among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations, it was found that there were weak negative correlations between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% individual/institutional ownership.

In addition, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, CEO total stock holdings, total value of CEO stocks, CEO tenure, and 5% management ownership had a positive firm size influence on CEO cash compensation. However, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, CEO age, CEO turnover, and 5% individual/institutional ownership had a negative firm size influence on CEO cash compensation. Overall, these results had led to the development of seven new theories:

1. There is a weak to moderate positive correlation between CEO salary and CEO age, perhaps due to experience. There is a weak positive correlation between CEO bonus and CEO age, indicating CEO bonus is rewarded based on the firm’s performance and achievement of strategic goals. In addition, firm size will have a negative influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO age.

2. There is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total stock holdings. That is, the correlation will depend on the board’s decision to reward based on extent of cash over stock options, and design and culture of 216 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

CEO cash compensation system of a particular market. In addition, firm size will have a positive influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO total stock holdings.

3. There is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks. That is, the nature and extent of the correlation will be influenced by market price of the stock, and design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. In addition, the large firm size will have a positive correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and total value of CEO stocks.

4. There is a weak positive correlation between CEO salary and CEO tenure. There is a weak mixed correlation between CEO bonus and CEO tenure, indicating the correlation between them will depend on CEO performance and board appreciation of the CEO service length. In addition, firm size will have a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO tenure.

5. There is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO turnover, indicating the correlation between them will be based on firm size and external or internal recruitment of a new CEO. In addition, the large firm size will

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

have a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and CEO turnover.

6. There is a weak mixed correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% management ownership, indicating the correlation between them will depend on the ownership structure, and design and culture of the CEO compensation system of a particular market. In addition, the large firm size will have a mixed influence on the correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% management ownership.

7. There is a weak negative correlation between CEO salary, CEO bonus, and 5% individual/Institutional ownership. In addition, the large firm size will have a negative influence on the correlation between CEO cash compensation and 5% individual/institutional ownership.

6.2 FUTURE RESEARCH Although this research had succeeded in understanding the nature and extent of the relationship between CEO cash compensation, firm size, firm performance, and CEO power, among TSX/S&P and NYSE indexes companies, yet further studies need to be conducted to understand CEO compensation on comprehensive basis such as, to conduct research on CEO long-term compensation components (in particular pensions 218 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

and benefits) and the influence of other non-financial components such as governance (board and ownership structure). This was strongly suggested after analyzing the results of thirty six statistical models that CEO compensation system is very complex and it is influenced by firm size, ownership structure, market culture, achievements of organizational strategic goals, CEO influence on the board of directors, and design of CEO contract. Following are recommended areas for future research:

1. The nature and extent of the relationship between CEO compensation and nonfinancial performance factors in the management and owner-controlled companies from 2005 to 2013. This research will make an invaluable contribution to the executive compensation literature, the nature and extent of the influence of CEO power (in particular CEO stock ownership and CEO tenure) on CEO compensation under management and owner-controlled companies.

2. The comparative study on CEO stock-based compensation among TSX/S&P and NYSE populations from 2005 to 2013. This topic will assist in understanding the nature and extent of CEO stock-based compensation (stock options) in respective markets. That is, this research will demonstrate the proportion of short and long-term compensations relative to total compensation in respective markets. Furthermore, it will demonstrate the effect of respective market culture on CEO compensation system. 219 Mr. Yusuf Mohammed Nulla Final Submission To The Dissertation Committee UGSM-Monarch Business School Switzerland 25-April-2013

CEO Cash Compensation, Firm Size, Firm Performance, and CEO Power

3. The nature and extent of influence of CEO/Chairman dual role of CEO compensation in management and owner-controlled companies from 2005 to 2013. This research will make an invaluable contribution to executive compensation literature in understanding the duality role power on CEO compensation under management and owner-controlled companies.

4. Study on the Chinese owned public companies CEO compensation system in North America. This research will assist in understanding the nature and extent of CEO compensation of growing Chinese owned public companies listed in North American stock exchanges. It will demonstrate the effect of Chinese corporate culture and the factors that are influential in determining CEO compensation.

5. The impact of International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) on Canadian CEO compensation system. This research will make an invaluable contribution to Canadian executive compensation literature towards understanding the nature and extent of influence of IFRS on CEO compensation. In addition, it can also be used as a proxy towards similar studies in the United States when it adopts IFRS for corporate reporting.

Earnings per share

Net profits divided by total common stocks outstanding.

Eigenvalue

The non-zero vectors or values that after being multiplied by the matrix, remain parallel to original vector or value. The first factor will always account for the most variance (and hence have the highest eigenvalue), and the next and subsequent factors will account for less and less variance. Eigenvalues close to zero indicate a multicollinearity problem.

Firm performance
