This year's figures are based on a sample of 250 CFOs reported on in the corporate proxy statements of 350 of the largest public companies with revenues over $1 billion that filed proxies between July 30, 2002, and April 4, 2003. The figures do not include "all other compensation" or "other annual compensation." Percentage changes are derived from within the sample only; they are not based on comparisons with data from the surveys of other years.
