Breakdown of costs for IT products and services
Those pesky Swedish prepositions! I'm just not sure how best to translate "vid" in the above phrase. I've considered "monthly cost reflecting advance quarterly billing" or "monthly cost with quarterly billing" but am unsure how to proceed. Can anyone help me out here? The phrase appears just below an itemized list of costs, complete with columns for type of product or service, applicable fees, and a description of each product. The sentence in its entirety reads:
"Alla priser ovan är i SEK exklusive moms och avser månadskostnanden vid kvartalsvis förkottsfakturering."
Many thanks in advance for any tips.

monthly cost with quarterly advance billing
I was thinking "monthly cost when quarterly advance billing is in effect," but I think "with," which you suggested, is better.

Also, depending on context, "price" may be better than "cost."

As there are prices, I think it is a shop offering a 'budget account'
payable every 3 months in advance.
