Pensionable PayAssumed Pensionable Pay (APP)Replaces concept of notional pay in respect of absences from work and is used in the projection of pension entitlement in the event of ill-health or death in service
http://www.lgpsregs.org/index.php/guides/payroll-guide-to-the-2014-scheme?showall=&start=5
APP is worked out using the last 3 months’ pay (or 12 weeks’ pay if weekly paid) prior to a reduction in pay, excluding any lump sums paid during that period. It is uprated to an annual rate (4c)The employer may, at their sole discretion, decide to add back into the APP any regular lump sum payment made in the last 12 months.
a “regular lump sum” is a payment for which themember’s employer determines there is a reasonable expectation that such a payment would bepaid on a regular basis
If APP spans the scheme year (to 31st March) it is uprated by HM Treasury revaluation order

Assumed Pensionable Pay example
October November December January February March
£1,500 £1,750(includes £250 lump sum payment as part of pay award)
£1,550 £1,250 £775 £775
Monthly paid employee who went on to half sick pay 20th January, received lump sum as part of annual pay award in November & % increase in December
Calculation of APP uses last 3 full months before pay drop – October to December
£1,500 + £1,500 (note lump sum removed) + £1,550 = £4,550 / 3 X 12 = £18,200
Employer could, if they wished add back in £250 lump sum payment. Please note, if a member has any earned payments e.g. overtime in the months you are using for APP this would be included in the calculation and not treated as a lump sum payment

Assumed Pensionable Pay
Apportioning (would be included in 4a & 4a1)
Example where this employee leaves on 31 March, as the employee dropped to half sick pay on 20th January we need to add an amount of APP into the CARE pay for the member.
Annual rate of APP = £18,200Actual Pay earned to 19th January = £1500 for 7 months (April to October), £1750 in November and £1,550 in December plus 19 days at £1,550 (£950) in January = £14,750
If using apportioning method 2 the amount of CARE pay for the year (and to determine employer contribution amount) would be £14,750 + £3,620.43 (APP for 12 days January plus February & March) = £18,370.43
Apportion method Amount of APP to apportion to period of absence
£18,200 X 71 OR 365
£3,540.27
(£18,200 X 2 months ) + (£1516.67 X 12 days) OR 12 31
£3,620.43
(£18,200 X 2 months ) + (1516.67 X 9 days) 12 22
£3,653.79
