(Core Assistance never to exceed $15,000)

Example #1:

Originally purchased @ $178,500 (1997)
Current appraised value $175,000
Listed at $180,000
Sells for $170,000
10% of appraised value = $17,500

Computation: Appraised value of $175,000 minus selling price of $170,000 = $5,000.
Therefore, the employee is entitled to financial assistance of $5,000 from Core.

Example #2:

Originally purchased @ $178,500 (1997)
Current appraised value $175,000
Listed at $170,000
Sells for $160,000 (Departmental National Coordinator has to approve because selling below 95% of appraised value)
10% of appraised value = $17,500

Computation:
Appraised value of $175,000 minus selling price of $160,000 = $15,000.
95% of appraised value = $166,250
Selling price = $160,000

Since the property sold for less than 95% of the appraised value, the Departmental National Coordinator must approve the reimbursement of the financial assistance of $15,000 from Core.

Example #3:

Originally purchased @ $178,500 (1997)
Current appraised value $175,000
Listed at $175,000
Sells for $155,000 (Departmental National Coordinator has to approve because selling below 95% of appraised value)
10% of appraised value = $17,500

Computation:
Appraised value of $175,000 minus selling price of $155,000 = $20,000.
95% of appraised value = $166,250
Selling price = $155,000

Since the property sold for less than 95% of the appraised value, the Departmental National Coordinator must approve the reimbursement of the financial assistance of $15,000 from the Core Fund. Subject to funding availability, he/she may approve an additional $2,500 from the Customized/Personalized Funds.

Example #4:

Current appraised value $130,000
Sells for $116,000 (Departmental National Coordinator to approve because sale price below 95% of appraised value)
10% of appraised value = $13,000
Loss from sale = $14,000

Computation:
Appraised value of $130,000 minus selling price of $116,000 = $14,000.
95% of appraised value = $123,500
Core to reimburse $13,000
No additional assistance from the Customized/Personalized Funds because it will exceed the 10% assistance.
