摘要: Abstract This paper studies perquisites of CEOs, focusing on personal use company planes. For firms that have disclosed this managerial benefit, average shareholder returns underperform market benchmarks by more than 4% annually, a severe gap far exceeding the costs resources consumed. Around date initial disclosure, firms’ stock prices drop an 1.1%. Regression analysis finds no significant associations between CEOs’ and their compensation or percentage ownership, but variables related to CEO characteristics, especially long-distance golf club memberships, explanatory power for aircraft use.
