Abstract

The purpose of this study investigates the relation between corporate life cycle and management compensation. The analysis is performed by comparing the compensation level and pay-performance-sensitivity (PPS) at each life cycle based on Korean data from 2003 to 2014. The results show that regarding compensation level, mature stage has the highest mean value of compensation and compensation level drops after mature stage. In introduction stage, growth and decline stages, compensation is not sensitive to accounting performance. In a while, in mature stage, management compensation varies with accounting performance more significantly than stock performance. In additional analysis, the results indicate that the finding is not designated from growth opportunities and the relation differs when the firm is included in a conglomerate. These findings contribute to the literature by providing additional evidence to understand for compensation and the corporate life cycle studies.

본 연구의 목적은 기업수명주기와 경영자 보상의 관계를 분석하는데 있다. 이를 위해 기업수명주기에 따른 경영자 보상 수준을 살펴보고, 수명주기별 경영자보상의 성과보상민감도를 살펴보고자 한다. 이와 같은 연구목적을 수행하기 위해, 2003년부터 2014년까지 유가증권시장 및 코스닥시장의 상장기업을 이용하여 회귀분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과, 경영자의 보상수준은 도입기에서 가장 낮으며, 성숙기까지 증가하여 성숙기에서 가장 높으며, 쇠퇴기에서 급격하게 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 성숙기를 제외한 도입기, 성장기, 쇠퇴기에서 성과보상민감도는 회계성과보다 주가성과에 더 연동되는 것으로 나타났으며, 성숙기에서는 회계성과에 강력하게 연동되는 것으로 나타났다. 추가분석을 통해 성장률이 높은 집단에서 회계성과와 주가성과에 연동되는 것으로 나타나 수명주기 결과가 성장률에 의해 나타난 결과가 아님을 확인하였다. 대규모기업집단을 별도로 분석하여 수명주기별 성과보상민감도가 일반적인 결과와 확연하게 다르게 나타남을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 기업의 수명주기에 따라 경영자 보상이 영향을 받는 다는 결과를 나타낸다는 점에서 기존연구와 차별성을 갖으며 관련 연구에 보탬이 된다.
