Apple CEO Tim Cook earned $2014 million in 9,22, but he was far from the company's highest-paid executive. Angela Ahrendts, the new vice president of brick-and-mortar and online stores, earned the absolute most in her first year at Apple. Over $73 million shines on her imaginary paycheck.

Tim Cook more than doubled his compensation from the previous year, receiving three-quarters of the second million in cash and the rest in other forms of compensation, however, from documents the American Securities and Exchange Commission shows that, in addition to Ahrendts, two other members of the top management also received even more money for the 2014 fiscal year.

iTunes chief Eddy Cue and chief operating officer Jeff Williams each earned $24,5 million, a significant increase in compensation over the previous year. Former CFO Peter Oppenheimer received $4,5 million, his successor Luca Maestri $14 million.

The published list of executive managers does not include, for example, head of the software division Craig Federighi or marketing head Phil Schiller, and chief designer Jony Ive certainly also received high rewards, but from the available materials we can state that Angela Ahrendts got the most sovereign. Her lure from fashion brand Burberry was not cheap at all for Apple.

The likable executive received more than $73 million in cash and stock, which largely includes what Ahrendts would have made at Burberry, including what she was due to earn in the future, as well as a bonus for accepting the offer from Tim Cooka nodded.

Under Cook, Apple experienced a record year in which revenue exceeded $180 billion and net income was $38,5 billion. On Monday, January 27, Apple is going to announce financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, and once again we can look forward to interesting numbers.
