Abstract
In an intense competitive environment, the most important factor to gain advantage and to increase profitability for many businesses is quality. Quality costs are important criteria in ensuring quality. Quality costs, which have been used widely in recent years, have a significant influence on profitability and productivity of enterprises. In this study, our aim is to see its effect on the profitability of an enterprise in the Iron and Steel industry in Turkey, by examining quality costs, within the framework of Feigebaum’s PAF Model. In this study, the data from 2016 and 2017 are used, and the "Case Study Method" is preferred because it allows an in-depth review and tangible data.
