Schedule payment

Juice factories frequently employ field persons to advise growers on the appHcation of sprays to the growing crops so that residues on harvested fmit are within prescribed limits. They also may sample the crop before harvest for analysis, and coordinate harvesting with factory production schedules. Payment for raw materials is frequently based on specifications that are either official government grades or stated market standards. Official graders may be employed to test each load. 

Assume that the constant monthly prepayment rate for a pool of mortgages is 2 percent, the outstanding principal balance at the start of the month is 72,200, and the scheduled principal payment is 223. To estimate the amount of principal prepayment for that month, the scheduled payment is subtracted from the balance, giving a total of 71,977, which is multiplied by the constant monthly prepayment rate, giving a prepayment amount for that month of 1,439. 

Availability and reliability have a very major impact on the plant economy. Reliability is essential in that when the power is needed it must be there. When the power is not available it must be generated or purchased, and can be very costly in the operation of a plant. Planned outages are scheduled for non-peak periods. Peak periods is when the majority of the income is generated as usually there are various tiers of pricing depending on the demand. Many power purchase agreements have clauses, which contain capacity payments, thus making plant availability critical in the economics of the plant. 

Alternatively, the debt repayment can be scheduled with uniform principal payments and varying total payments each period. The principal payment can be calculated by the formula ... 

For income tax purposes, you can calculate the principal and interest in each payment. For example, at the end of the first month, the interest paid is 35,000 (0.008750) - 306.25 and the principal paid is 325.00 - 306.25 — 18.75, so that the principal balance for the next month s interest calculation is 34,981.25. Iteration of this procedure (best done on a computer) yields the amortization schedule for the loan.

Assume that the capital for the project is borrowed at 25% interest with a required return on investment of 5 years. Five annual payments are made to the creditors. The calculations made to determine the size of these payments and their repayment schedule are given in Appendix E (Table E.6). The five payments needed are each of AS5.02 million. These will cover both the 25% interest rate and the AS13.5 million principal. Operating and production costs are tax deductible as is the interest on borrowed capital, only gross profit is taxed. In the calculations, the AS5.02 million capital cost term is therefore broken into two components. The first is the tax-free interest component and the second must come from operating profit. This profit is assumed to attract 49% company tax. 

Make effective use of contractors—All contractors should be provided with a well-defined scope of work. Their performance against requirements should be monitored frequently. Hire real expertise wherever possible the low bidder may not be fully capable, and true talent is rarely inexpensive. Be on the alert for add- on charges such as administrative fees. Be wary of bait and switch tactics where the A team bids on the job, but only the C team is ever on site. Use a completion-based payment schedule to keep contractors performing fully. 

After a patent issues in the United States, a maintenance fee schedule is established using the issue date of the patent application as the starting time point. The general payment timelines and amounts for U.S. patents for the fiscal year 2009 are shown in Table 2.1. 

Informed consents, which must be signed by subjects before they participate in a study, reflect payments that will be made and, as mentioned, should include how they will be scheduled. The review of this information falls under the purview of IRB responsibility for two reasons. First, payment is perceived as a benefit, and it is the IRB s responsibility to determine that the benefit does not reflect an unduly coercive amount that may persuade individuals to participate in a study they ordinarily would not consider. Second, the IRB is also responsible for evaluating the investigator s responsibilities regarding the submission of this document. 

Other relevant information normally held as appendix or schedule to the SLA include user and suppher contact details, definition of fixed costs, charge-out rates, and penalty payments as appropriate. Contractual terms and conditions might also be included if not managed as a separate document. Escalation management processes should be documented and understood.

Different brands of the same drug may be listed in the PBS Schedule at different prices and the federal government subsidizes up to the price of the lowest priced brand. As a result of this policy, patients are required to pay a surcharge on their patient co-payment if they choose the higher priced brand of a drug when a lower priced generic exists. 

Payment for the majority of the patient care services provided by physician and nonphysician practitioners is based on the resource-based relative value scale (RBRVS). The RBRVS ranks services according to the relative costs of the resources needed to provide them. The resulting relative value scale is then multiplied by a dollar figure to convert the service into a payment schedule. This payment model was successfully applied to pharmaceutical care practice in the Minnesota Pharmaceutical Care Project. Five levels of patient need were created based on the following 1) the number of the patient s medical conditions 2) the number of medications the patient is taking and 3) the number of drug therapy problems identified. At 10 different community pharmacy practices in 1994, the average payment for a patient encounter was 12.14.

The issue of subject reimbursement also has to be considered by the IRB to ensure that subjects are not induced to participate in a study because of excessive payments, but rather are remunerated adequately for the time and inconvenience that they experience in order to participate. If subjects participate in studies involving more than one study visit, the amount of reimbursement on a per visit basis should be stated. Visits that require additional time and/or cause inconvenience to the subject and have higher remunerations should be stated when applicable. Conversely, it should be stated if there are visits for which no reimbursement is scheduled. Finally, subjects should be informed when there is a caveat that, if the study is not completed, a prorated amount will be reimbursed rather than the total amount indicated for study completion. All of these items should be delineated in the informed consent.
