I have a function that I use for this task:

function Get-LocalAdministrators {  
    param ($strcomputer)  

    $admins = Get-WmiObject win32_groupuser –computer $strcomputer   
    $admins = $admins |? {$_.groupcomponent –like '*"Administrators"'}  

    $admins | ForEach-Object {  
    $_.partcomponent –match ".+Domain\=(.+)\,Name\=(.+)$" > $nul  
    $matches[1].trim('"') + "\" + $matches[2].trim('"')  
    }  
}

Usage:

Get-LocalAdministrators computer01

And to run against the local computer:

Get-LocalAdministrators localhost
