Go Finance Reporting in DETROIT - General Motors (GM) posted a remarkable resurgence in 2010. As a result, GM's chief executive and chairman, Dan Akerson, will get paid worth more than $ 2, 5 million.
However, it is still much smaller than the previous executive at the company, because the GM should bear the burden of the bailout money it receives return in 2009.
However, assuming Akerson, GM recorded an impressive year with a flurry. GM turned a profit in its first year in the past few years, returned as a public company and increased sales of cars and trucks in the United States.
That success proved more profitable than the officials before Akerson, Ed Whitacre, who received compensation valued at $ 5 million last year. Whitacre is the CEO who worked only eight months in 2010, and left GM on 1 September. While the new Akerson worked four months.
Quoted from the Associated Press on Saturday (04/23/2011), Akerson, 62, had joined GM as a member of the board of directors in 2009. He took over CEO duties from Whitacre and add the title of chairman earlier this year. For his ability in 2010, he received a salary of USD566, 7 thousand, stock awards valued at $ 1, 8 million, and other compensation USD194.088.
Former Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer Chris Liddell received the highest paid last year. GM executives with payments worth $ 6, 2 million. He left the company on 1 April, after Akerson and Whitacre replaced.
As for the full year in 2011, Akerson will get paid more. GM's own party said that he would get a salary and shares worth USD9 million per year. (GoFinance)
