pickupchik [31]

Answer: Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program (EECICP)

Explanation:

Much like private companies, the Federal government is also required to insure its workers and this is regulated under the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP). There are several compensation programs but the relevant one here is the EECICP.

The EECICP is for federal employees in the Department of Energy as well as agencies related to them. This also includes contractors and subcontractors. Under this program, eligible workers who got injured are entitled to a lump-sum compensation as well as health benefits.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: c. 78,000 equivalent units.

Explanation:

Equivalent units for conversion is calculated as:

= Units completed and transferred out + Equivalent ending work in process

Units completed and transferred out:

= Units started into production - Ending units

= 90,000 - 20,000

= 70,000 units

Equivalent ending work in process = 40% * 20,000 work in process units

= 8,000 units

Equivalent units for conversion = 70,000 + 8,000

= 78,000 units
