Description
Return eligible-band before cutoff, including equality only when equalityRefundable; otherwise later-band.
Education payment records distinguish subsidies, deposits, transferable credit, refund bands and administrative fees. A supplied calculation can reconcile a proposed balance without determining which fees or refunds are legally or institutionally available. Endpoint inclusion and the order of deductions can change the result.
Return eligible-band before cutoff, including equality only when equalityRefundable; otherwise later-band.

}Limitations and assumptions
- This only chooses a supplied boundary label; it does not calculate a refund or determine an institutional or legal entitlement.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Inspect the applicable enrollment/funding agreement and current institutional rules with the responsible financial/legal professionals for actual entitlements.
