Workers' Compensation: Determining Partial Dependency in a Death Case

Do you know how to determine the amount to be paid to a partial dependant in a death case under Tennessee's Workers' Compensation Law? The formula is set out in Sullivan Elec. Co. v. McDonald, 541 S.W.2d 112, 117-19 (Tenn. 1976).

This issue doesn't come up very often, but, when it does, it's nice to know where to look.
