Using the result NB = 1000 N and writing the moment equation of equilibrium
about the y axis and the force equation of equilibrium along the z axis, we have

(MA)y - 600(0.4) + 1000(0.8) = 0

The negative sign indicates that (M A)y acts in the opposite sense to that shown on
the free-body diagram. If we write the force equation of equilibrium along the
x axis, ©Fx = 0, and so equilibrium is satisfied.
