Shia LaBeouf has topped Forbes' list of Hollywood's Best Actors for the Buck for the second year in a row. The survey analyzed which actors and actresses pull in the most money relative to their paychecks, and found that for every $1 the studios spent on LaBeouf, his films return about $81 of profit.

His most profitable films include Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen ($836 million worldwide box office) and the fourth Indiana Jones film ($787 million).

Anne Hathaway took the second spot on the list, as the studios earned $64 for every dollar they spent on the Alice in Wonderland/Bride Wars star.

Harry Potter's Daniel Radcliffe rounded out the top three and was followed by Robert Downey Jr. and Cate Blanchett.
