           Step 1. Work out the means tested amount for the care recipient (see section 44‑22).
           Step 2. Subtract the maximum accommodation supplement amount for the day (see subsection (6)) from the means tested amount.
           Step 3. If the amount worked out under step 2 does not exceed zero, the care subsidy reduction is zero.
           Step 4. If the amount worked out under step 2 exceeds zero but not the sum of the following, the care subsidy reduction is the amount worked out under step 2:

                (a) the adjusted basic subsidy amount for the care recipient for the day (see subsection (6A));
                (b) any primary supplement amounts for the care recipient for the day.

           Step 5. If the amount worked out under step 2 exceeds the sum of the following, the care subsidy reduction is that sum:

                (a) the adjusted basic subsidy amount for the care recipient for the day (see subsection (6A));
                (b) any primary supplement amounts for the care recipient for the day.
 (3) If the care recipient has not provided sufficient information about the care recipient's income and assets for the care recipient's means tested amount to be determined, the care subsidy reduction for a day is the sum of the following amounts:
 (a) the adjusted basic subsidy amount for the care recipient for the day (see subsection (6A));
 (b) any primary supplement amounts for the care recipient for the day.
 (4) If, apart from this subsection, the sum of all the *combined care subsidy reductions made for the care recipient during a *start‑date year for the care recipient would exceed the annual cap applying at the time for the care recipient, the care subsidy reduction for the remainder of the start‑date year is zero.
 (5) If, apart from this subsection, the sum of all the previous *combined care subsidy reductions made for the care recipient would exceed
