I will give one caveot that I may be wrong about what the minimum rookie cap hit is
Well, yes. Looking at Miguel's page and seeing salaries well below your quoted figure might have been your first clue.
Using Google would have quickly revealed to you that rookie minimum salary is $310,000 next year.
Hodel is a veteran so eventhough he signed for $750k and a $50k roster bonus, his cap hit is $519k and if he is cut the whole $50k hits ths year's cap.
That's pretty garbled, but you are close to correct in that his cap hit, as per Miguel, is only $517,280, and what can be saved off the cap by cutting him is $57,280 less than that. I was forgetting about that twist in the CBA.
So the cap difference between the two is only $150K, plus whatever acceleration there is on Ingram's bonus. Surely that's under $200K total.
