There is many concept of TQM the two are include ;

A firm that practices the continuous improvement in their process and function such a firm will have less cost of Scrap and wastage of sources.

Less wastage of resource directly effect the firm profitability.

Appraisal cost and firm profitability

By inspection (which is also consider as cost) a firm can also to over come to some of its cost and on return it can create an accumulated profit to that firm.

Filer cost and the firm profitability

Some cost such as External cost can impair the goodwill of the company and thus indirectly effect a firm profitability.

Due to this indirect nature of this cost it is also called Hidden cost.
