  If:

      This is how to work out the amount of the lump sum:
      Method statement
           Step 1. Work out the rate at which carer allowance was payable to the person immediately before the disabled adult died.
           Step 2. Work out the number of paydays of the person in the bereavement lump sum period.
           Step 3. Multiply the rate obtained in step 1 by the number obtained in step 2: the result is the amount of the lump sum payable to the person under this section.
Note: For first available bereavement adjustment payday, bereavement period and bereavement lump sum period see subsection 21(2).
