Help with if, when and for...I think?

I think I am making this too complicated. I hope I explained well enough
below. Thanks in advance. John

I have a PDF form which is populated from the below XML (stripped down).
The PDF form fields look like a - d below when blank.

a. _______________
b. _______________
c. _______________
d. _______________

Under the extensions/Extension nodes:
- There are many fieldTypeCodes under the extensions/Extension. However,
for this problem, I am only concerned with fieldTypeCodes of 10 - 17. For
these fieldTypeCodes, it will be outputted in the XML if there is a
reportableAmount. So in the below XML, only fieldTypeCodes of 11, 14 and 16
had reportableAmounts and were outputted in the XML.

I need to check for all fieldTypeCodes of 10-17. There is no 10 in this
instance so PDF input field A would be populated with the reportableAmount
of fieldTypeCode 11. The resulting PDF should look like that below. Note
that the description letter needs to be pulled of the FieldType node that
corresponds.

a. L 6635.86
b. J 663.00
c. N 5.86
d.
