On the evidence the court found the deceased earned $110 per day at death and would have earned $170 per day later, worked 26 days per month, and a multiplier of 16 for lost years and a free‑balance of 45% were appropriate; awarding LARCO damages totalling $386,861.00, FAO dependency to the minor of $31,980.00, offsetting the employee's compensation of $160,000.00, resulting in a net award of $258,841.00 with specified apportionment, payment into court for the minor, and specified interest rates and costs orders.
