The dependent variables in columns <strong>on</strong>e and two are the CEO’s cash-flow share based<br />
<strong>on</strong> total cash compensati<strong>on</strong> (cash ratio, CR) and cash b<strong>on</strong>uses (b<strong>on</strong>us ratio, BR),<br />
respectively. The dependent variables in columns three and four, respectively, are the<br />
same measures calculated for the four executives in the top management team excluding<br />
the CEO. All estimates are based <strong>on</strong> QMLE estimati<strong>on</strong> developed by Papke and<br />
Wooldridge (1996). Explanatory variables are defined in Table 3.2. M<strong>on</strong>etary variables<br />
are adjusted for inflati<strong>on</strong>. All regressi<strong>on</strong>s include year and industry dummies.<br />
z-values in parentheses are calculated as coefficient estimates over robust standard<br />
errors. Significance levels of 1, 5 and 10 percent are indicated by ***, ** and *,<br />
respectively.<br />
