<p>Read through the whole formula. Parent assets are multiplied by .12 and added to available income giving (I think ) adjusted available income (AAI). Then the amount of AAI is used along with another table to determine the to determine the EFC. The % of AAI used for the EFC ranges from 22% up to a maximum of 47%. SO the maximum amount of the 12% of assets that can got to the EFC is 47%. 47% of 12 % is 5.64%</p>
<p>So up to 5.64% of parent assets can go to the EFC.</p>
