Can a salary scale be used with Level Dollar Individual Aggregate funding method?

[Guest billkalke]

As I read the regs on automatic approval for a change in funding method, it is OK to use Level Dollar Individual Aggregate method for a plan with a salary related benefit.

Does anyone know of any guidance from the IRS on whether it is OK to use a salary scale when using the Level Dollar Individual Aggregate funding method?

Sure, it's been done for a long time.

More important is the question of what funding pattern is developed by this combination of method and assumptions. Read your ASOPs.
