working out the amount of this instalment because the payday on which it is payable is within the bereavement rate continuation period.
Step 2.  Work out the instalment of income support supplement that would have been payable to the person on the payday immediately before the first available bereavement adjustment payday if the rate of the person's income support supplement were not calculated under section 45ZH: the result is called the new rate.

Step 3.  Take the new rate away from the continued rate: the result is called the deceased child component.
Step 4.  Work out the number of pension paydays in the bereavement lump sum period.
Step 5.  Multiply the deceased child component by the number of pension paydays in the bereavement lump sum period: the result is the amount of the lump sum payable to the person under this section.
