Yield Losses Notes:

Internal failure costs are related to the costs associated with poor quality of products before they are shipped to the customers. One of the sub classes of internal failure cost is yield losses. Yield loss is defined as the ratio of non-conforming products and the total number of produced products. The value of yield shows the performance of the product. Yield losses adversely affect the manufacturing process performance and efficiency. For example, if 100 items are produced and 80 of them are good, the yield will be 80%. Process yields can be increased (yield losses can be decreased) by improved process. The costs associated with yield losses are a part of internal failure costs.
