This leaves you with a formula as follows:
This leaves you with a formula for a {{csaprov|Transferee}}’s {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} as follows: '''''Max[0, E + IA<sub>t</sub> - (IA<sub>r</sub> + Threshold.)'''''
:''Max[0, E + IA<sub>t</sub> - (IA<sub>r</sub> + Threshold.)''
====Example====
 
Let’s plug in some numbers. Say:
Let's plug in some numbers. Say:
*{{csaprov|Transferee}}’s {{csaprov|Exposure}} is 10,000,000
*Your {{csaprov|Exposure}} is 10,000,000
*The {{csaprov|Transferor}}’s {{csaprov|Independent Amount}} IA<sub>t</sub> is 2,000,000
*The IA<sub>t</sub> you owe the counterparty: 2,000,000
*The {csaprov|Transferee}}’s {{csaprov|Independent Amount}} IA<sub>r</sub> is 0
*IA<sub>r</sub> the counterparty owes you: 0
*The {{csaprov|Transferor}}’s {{csaprov|Threshold}} is 5,000,000
*Your {{csaprov|Threshold}}: 5,000,000


Your {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} is therefore ''10,000,000 + 2,000,000 - (0 + 5,000,000) = '''7,000,000'''''.  
Your {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} is therefore ''10,000,000 + 2,000,000 - (0 + 5,000,000) = '''7,000,000'''''.  


Now, whether you have to ''pay'' anything or ''receive'' anything as a result — whether there is a {{csaprov|Delivery Amount}} or a {{csaprov|Return Amount}}, in other words — that depends whether the {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} is greater or smaller than your prevailing {{csaprov|Credit Support Balance}}.
Now, whether you have to ''pay'' anything or ''receive'' anything as a result — whether there is a {{csaprov|Delivery Amount}} or a {{csaprov|Return Amount}}, in other words — that depends whether the {{csaprov|Credit Support Amount}} is greater or smaller than your prevailing {{csaprov|Credit Support Balance}}, by at least the {{csaprov|Minimum Transfer Amount}}. <ref>
