tootlusmäär

Tootlusmäär, often translated as return rate or yield, is a metric used in various fields to express the proportion of something that is successfully produced or obtained compared to the total potential or input. The specific definition and calculation of tootlusmäär depend heavily on the context in which it is applied.

In agriculture, tootlusmäär refers to the amount of a harvested crop, such as grain or fruit, obtained per unit of land area. For example, it could be measured in kilograms per hectare or bushels per acre. A higher tootlusmäär indicates greater productivity and efficiency in farming.

In manufacturing and industrial processes, tootlusmäär signifies the proportion of acceptable products that result from a production run, relative to the total number of items started or materials used. This is also known as yield or output rate. A low tootlusmäär in manufacturing can indicate inefficiencies, defects, or material waste.

In finance, tootlusmäär can refer to the profit or return on an investment expressed as a percentage of the initial investment. This is commonly known as the rate of return or yield. It helps investors evaluate the profitability of their financial assets.

The calculation typically involves dividing the actual output or return by the total potential output or input, and then often multiplying by 100 to express it as a percentage. Understanding the tootlusmäär is crucial for assessing performance, identifying areas for improvement, and making informed decisions in a wide range of applications.
