Mayer's total compensation, including cash and stock, increased 69% to $42 million in 2014, according to Yahoo's proxy statement filed on Wednesday. Mayer total compensation in 2013 was $24.9 million.

Mayer's salary was the same in 2014 as the year before: $1 million. The increase was due to Yahoo's stock price, which has more than doubled since Mayer took the reins in the summer of 2012.
