Exhibit 3-14: Section 236 With Benefit of Additional Assistance – Special Instructions for Determining Prorated Assistance Payment and Prorated Total Tenant Payment/Tenant Rent for Families Subject to Proration Procedures Regarding the Restriction on Assistance to Noncitizens

Example – Calculating the Cash Value of an Asset

HUD Handbook 4350.3 REV-1 — Occupancy Requirements of Subsidized Multifamily Housing Programs · 2026 edition · updated 2026-10-05 · United States

A family has a certificate of deposit (CD) in the amount of $5,000 paying interest at 4%. The penalty for early withdrawal is three months of interest.

$5,000 x 0.04 = $200 in annual income

$200/12 months = $16.67 interest per month

$16.67 x 3 months = $50.01

$5,000 - $50 = $4,950 cash value of CD

  • b. It is essential to note that a family is not required to convert an asset to cash. Determining the cash value of the asset is done simply as a calculation by the owner because it is a required step when determining income from assets under program requirements.
