In this situation, how would you check for the capability of the process? Which capability metric would you prefer to use - DPMO, DPU or Yield%? Please provide examples to support your answer.

Rolled Throughput Yield Part 2
Vishwadeep Khatri posted a question in We ask and you answer! The best answer wins!
Q. 90 Rolled throughput yield (RTY) is the probability that a single unit can pass through the entire process without defects. Can you multiply the individual throughput yields at each process step to obtain the overall, rolled throughput yield? Since, many organizations focus more on “What gets outside the door”, how does RTY (as a metric) highlight the so-called “hidden factory”? Give examples to support your response.
