The author concludes that the high pay of CEOs is unjustified.

Why?

Because the average CEO is paid many times more than the average worker at the same company, even though CEOs don’t work many times harder than the average worker.

The author assumes that how much someone is paid at a company should be determined based on how hard they work.

Helps establish that CEOs’ pay is injustified. If pay should be proportional to how hard they work, and we know that CEOs don’t work many times harder than the average worker at their companies, then CEOs shouldn’t be paid many times more than those average workers.

This doesn’t help the argument, because it allows for the CEOs’ high pay to be justified by their potentially greater contributions to the overall success of the company.

This doesn’t help the argument, because it allows for the CEOs’ high pay to be justified by their potentially higher need to maintain a reasonably comfortable lifestyle.

This doesn’t help the argument, because we don’t know that CEOs and the average worker “perform the same work.”

(E) has nothing to do with how much one should be paid at a company.
