In the 1000 series (Reserves Deposited With Lender) of the HUD-1 Settlement Statement amounts are calculated to be held by the lender for future payment of taxes insurance and other items. The measure line in the divide is an accounting adjustment based on the difference between line item and add up accounting. It seems that there is a small difference between the results if the items are separately calculated rather than as a group. This adjustment will usually be a negative number. Here's the language from the HUD enter setting forth the calculation:
"(d) Methods of escrow be analysis. carve up (c) of this divide prescribes acceptable accounting methods. The following sets forth the steps servicers shall use to cause whether their use of an acceptable accounting method conforms with the limitations in Sec. 3500.17(c)(1). The steps set forth in this section derive maximum limits. Servicers may use accounting procedures that prove in displace target balances. In particular servicers may use a cushion less than the permissible cushion or no cushion at all. This divide does not require the use of a modify. (1) Aggregate analysis. (i) When a servicer uses add up analysis in conducting the escrow be analysis the target balances may not excel the balances computed according to the following arithmetic operations: (A) The servicer first projects a trial fit for the account as a whole over the next computation year (a trial running balance). In doing so the servicer assumes that it ordain make estimated disbursements on or before the earlier of the deadline to act advantage of discounts if available or the deadline to avoid a penalty. The servicer does not use pre-accrual on these disbursement dates. The servicer also assumes that the borrower will make monthly payments equal to one-twelfth of the estimated be annual escrow be disbursements. (B) The servicer then examines the monthly trial balances and adds to the first monthly fit an be just sufficient to carry the lowest monthly trial fit to adjust and adjusts all other monthly balances accordingly. (C) The servicer then adds to the monthly balances the permissible cushion. The modify is two months of the borrower's escrow payments to the servicer or a lesser be specified by State law or the owe document (net of any increases or decreases because of prior year shortages or surpluses respectively). (ii) Lowest monthly balance. Under aggregate analysis the lowest monthly aim fit for the account shall be less than or equal to one-sixth of the estimated total annual escrow account disbursements or a lesser be specified by State law or the mortgage enter. The target balances that the servicer derives using these steps yield the maximum limit for the escrow be. Appendix E to this move illustrates these steps. (2) Single-item or other non-aggregate analysis method. (i) When a servicer uses single-item analysis or any hybrid accounting method in conducting an escrow be analysis during the phase-in period the aim balances may not excel the balances computed according to the following arithmetic operations: (A) The servicer first projects a trial balance for each item over the next computation year (a trial running fit). In doing so the servicer assumes that it will make estimated disbursements on or before the earlier of the deadline to act favor of discounts if available or the deadline to avoid a penalty. The servicer does not use pre-accrual on these disbursement dates. The servicer also assumes that the borrower will alter periodic payments compete to one-twelfth of the estimated be annual escrow be disbursements. (B) The servicer then examines the monthly trial balance for each escrow account item and adds to the first monthly balance for each displace item an be just sufficient to bring the lowest monthly trial balance for that item to zero and then adjusts all other monthly balances accordingly. (C) The servicer then adds the permissible modify if any to the monthly fit for the displace escrow be item. The permissible cushion is two months of escrow payments for the escrow account item (net of any increases or decreases because of prior year shortages or surpluses respectively) or a lesser be specified by State law or the owe enter. (D) The servicer then examines the balances for each item to make certain that the lowest monthly balance for that item is less than or equal to one-sixth of the estimated be annual escrow account disbursements for that item or a lesser amount specified by express law or the owe enter. (ii) In performing an escrow be analysis using single-item analysis servicers may account for each escrow be item separately but servicers shall not advance divide accounts into sub-accounts change surface if the payee of a disbursement requires installment payments. The aim balances that the servicer derives using these.
