According to Yates Quality, many manufacturers do not realise that they are really paying for a needed piece of machinery although not purchasing it outright. Low production, poor quality of product, excessive cost of repairs and high labour costs enter as factors that are buying that —buying it in a way that will never mean an actual installation in the purchaser’s plant. Costs are the dollars and cents proof of manufacturing profits.
