NEW YORK (AP) — McDonald's Corp. gave outgoing CEO Jim Skinner a pay package worth $8.8 million last year, a 10 percent drop from the previous year.
The reduction was largely the result of a lower incentive bonus. A regulatory filing made with the Securities and Exchange Commission shows the world's biggest hamburger chain gave its top executive a salary of $1.5 million, stock and option awards worth $3.2 million and an incentive bonus of $3.3 million.
All other compensation came to $752,024 and covered costs for the use of the company aircraft and contributions to retirement plans.
