MODERATORS
The pay of CEOs in fortune 500 companies is somewhere between 0,01 and 0,05% of all expanses. Management as a whole is 10-25%, management pay is 1-5%.
Now do stockholders and stock options
Dividends make up somewhere between 20 and 50% of company net income, which is usually 10-20% of total expanses, so most companies spend 2-10% on dividends (which aren't classified as expenses).
Management is also work. You can't just throw labor into goods, you need to coordinate it
Yup
