We have the news that Dara Khosrowshahi is to move from Expedia to Uber as the new Chief Executive Officer. At which point a little detail, this now makes the calculations of what CEO pay was in the US in 2015 wrong. My point though is about this:It's no secret that CEO pay vastly outstrips that of the average worker—the former earning by some measures 204 times more—but one CEO is a head above the rest. The general system of counting CEO pay includes multi-year stock awards, in their entirety, in the year they are issued, not when they vest. This overstates CEO pay as the Dara Khosrowshahi move to Uber shows, as he'll not get some portion of what is listed as his 2015 pay at Expedia.
