  2. 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.

  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. Process capability index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_capability_index

    Process yield is the complement of process fallout and is approximately equal to the area under the probability density function = / if the process output is approximately normally distributed. In the short term ("short sigma"), the relationships are:

  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

    Parents could provide abundantly more food and healthcare essentials for their family. That is a significantly increasing rate of return. But, if you gave the same increase to a wealthy family, the impact it would have on their life would be minor. Therefore, the rate of return provided by that average increase in income is diminishing.

    The converse process in discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis takes a sequence of cash flows and a price as input and as output the discount rate, or internal rate of return (IRR) which would yield the given price as NPV. This rate, called the yield, is widely used in bond trading.
