Payment of £50 to A to reach final protected balance of £1,300.
50% of remaining payment of £575, paid to B and 50% to A (£50 + £287.50)

As final protected balance reached, 50% of total payment of £625 (so £312.50) is available to be paid to B. However, that would take payments to B over the £500 limit, so only £212.50 is paid to B (so as to reach the £500 limit) and remainder paid to A.
