After the first disbursement for fall term, you reduce the award from the original award amount of 3,000.00 USD to 2,700.00 USD. The term target becomes 900.00 USD. The student already received 500.00 USD, but with disbursement protection turned off, the system recalculates the remaining disbursements to be 450.00 USD with a disbursement adjustment of 50.00 USD. When you run Authorization/Disbursement, the system adjusts the disbursement by 50.00 USD.
