  2. Annual percentage yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annual_percentage_yield

    ANNUAL PERCENTAGE YIELD. — The term "annual percentage yield" means the total amount of interest that would be received on a $100 deposit, based on the annual rate of simple interest and the frequency of compounding for a 365-day period, expressed as a percentage calculated by a method which shall be prescribed by the Board in regulations.

  3. Crop yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_yield

    In agriculture, the yield is a measurement of the amount of a crop grown, or product such as wool, meat or milk produced, per unit area of land. The seed ratio is another way of calculating yields. Innovations, such as the use of fertilizer , the creation of better farming tools, new methods of farming and improved crop varieties , have ...

  4. First-pass yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-pass_yield

    The total first time yield is equal to FTYofA * FTYofB * FTYofC * FTYofD or 0.9000 * 0.8889 * 0.9375 * 0.9333 = 0.7000. You can also get the total process yield for the entire process by simply dividing the number of good units produced by the number going into the start of the process. In this case, 70/100 = 0.70 or 70% yield.

  5. Land equivalent ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_equivalent_ratio

    The land equivalent ratio can be used whenever more than one type of yield can be obtained from the same area. This can be intercropping of annual crops (e.g. sorghum and pigeonpea ) [ 1 ] or combination of annual and perennial crops e.g. in agroforestry systems (e.g. jackfruit and eggplant ).

  6. Diminishing returns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diminishing_returns

    This signifies that output (Q) is dependent on a function of all variable (L) and fixed (K) inputs in the production process. This is the basis to understand. What is important to understand after this is the math behind marginal product. MP= ΔTP/ ΔL. [21] This formula is important to relate back to diminishing rates of return.

  7. Yield (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(chemistry)

    The percent yield is a comparison between the actual yield—which is the weight of the intended product of a chemical reaction in a laboratory setting—and the theoretical yield—the measurement of pure intended isolated product, based on the chemical equation of a flawless chemical reaction, [1] and is defined as,

  8. Yield curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_curve

    If P is defined for all future t then we can easily recover the yield (i.e. the annualized interest rate) for borrowing money for that period of time via the formula = / The significant difficulty in defining a yield curve therefore is to determine the function P(t). P is called the discount factor function or the zero coupon bond.

  9. Profit maximization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profit_maximization

    For instance, taking the first definition, if it costs a firm $400 to produce 5 units and $480 to produce 6, the marginal cost of the sixth unit is 80 dollars. Conversely, the marginal income from the production of 6 units is the income from the production of 6 units minus the income from the production of 5 units (the latter item minus the ...
